Answer:

211 mmHg

Explanation:

Absolute Pressure = Gauge Pressure + Atmospheric pressure

128 = Gauge Pressure + 100

Gauge Pressure = 28 KPa = 28 × 10³ Pa

Also Gauge Pressure = ρgh

ρ = density = 13550 kg/m³

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = pressure head = ?

28 × 10³ = 13550 × 9.8 × h

h = 28000/(13550 × 9.8)

h = 0.211 m = 211 mm

Three blocks are arranged in a stack on a frictionless horizontal surface. The bottom block has a mass of 37.0 kg. A block of ma
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

N₂ = 503.8 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of bottom block = 37 Kg

mass of middle block = 18 Kg

mass of the top block = 16 Kg

force acting on the top block = 170 N

force on the block at top

N₁ be the normal force from block at middle

now,

N₁ = 170 + m g

N₁ = 170 + 16 x 9.8

now, force on block at middle

N₂ be the normal force exerted by the bottom block

N₂ = N₁ + m₂ g

N₂ = 326.8 + 18 x 9.8

N₂ = 503.8 N

hence, normal force by bottom block is equal to N₂ = 503.8 N

An electric lamp consumes 60W at 220 volts. How many dry cells of 1.5 V and internal resistance 1 Ohm are required to glow the l
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

1. Number of dry cells of 1.5 V required is 40.

2. Number of internal resistance of 1 ohm required is 807

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the resistance. This can be obtained as follow:

Power (P) = 60 W

Voltage (V) = 220 V

Resistance (R) =?

P = V²/R

60 = 220² / R

Cross multiply

60 × R = 220²

60 × R = 48400

Divide both side by 60

R = 48400 / 60

R ≈ 807 Ohm

1. Determination of the number of dry cells of 1.5 V required.

Voltage (V) = 220

Dry Cells = 1.5 V

Number of dry cells (n) =?

n = Voltage / Dry cells

n = 60 / 1.5

n = 40

2. Determination of the number of internal resistance of 1 ohm required.

Resistance (R) = 807 Ohm

Internal resistance (r) = 1 ohm

Number of internal resistance (n) =?

n = R/r

n = 807 / 1

n = 807

SUMMARY:

1. Number of dry cells of 1.5 V required is 40.

2. Number of internal resistance of 1 ohm required is 807

One way to search for planets around other stars is the doppler technique. another way uses transits of planets around other sta
katovenus [111]
The transit method requires watching the light output of a star over long periods of time. A transit occurs when the planet crosses in front of its star from earths point of view. Since there is a small object (the planet) now blocking some of the star, it appears to dim a little bit for a while until the planet passes. If we are in a position where that occurs regularly (most paths of planets do not happen to be on the line of sight between earth and their star) we can deduce the period of orbit. From the amount of dimming and the period you can estimate the mass
