The atmospheric pressure in denver, co is 633 mmhg. what is this pressure in atm?

1 answer:

7 0

1 atm of pressure corresponds to 760 mmHg. Therefore, we can set a simple proportion to find how many atmospheres of pressure correspond to 633 mmHg, in the following way:
$1 atm : 760 mmHg = x : 633 mmHg$
And if we solve this proportion, we find the pressure in atmospheres:
$x= \frac{1 atm \cdot 633 mmHg}{760 mmHg}=0.83 atm$

Which term describes a substance that has a low melting point and poor electrical conductivity?

densk [106]

Answer:Simple Covalent substance

Explanation:Simple covalent substance describes a substance that has a low melting point and poor electrical conductivity because:

(1)melting point :For the covalent bond and intermolecular force that are present in a simple covalent substance,energy is needed to break the forces of attraction present. In the simple covalent substance, little energy is needed because the intermolecular forces present are broken because they are weaker compared to the covalent bond present.

Therefore, when simple covalent substance melts,only the intermolecular forces are broken leaving only the covalent bond in the substance.

(2) poor conductivity: for a substance to conduct electricity,it must have charged particles which are free to move to and fro.

But in the simple covalent substance,there are no charged particles that can be separated due to the covalent bond present in simple covalent substance.

3- (a) What is the period of rotation of Earth in seconds? (b) What is the angular velocity of Earth? (c) Given that Earth has a

ASHA 777 [7]

Explanation:

a) The Earth makes 1 rotation in 24 hours. In seconds:

24 hr × (3600 s / hr) = 86400 s

b) 1 rotation is 2π radians. So the angular velocity is:

2π rad / 86400 s = 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s

c) The earth's linear velocity is the angular velocity times the radius:

40075 km × 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s = 2.91 km/s

You are performing a double slit experiment very similar to the one from DL by shining a laser on two nattow slits spaced 7.5 x

Blizzard [7]

Complete Question

You are performing a double slit experiment very similar to the one from DL by shining a laser on two nattow slits spaced $7.5 * 10^{-3}$ meters apart. However, by placing a piece of crystal in one of the slits, you are able to make it so that the rays of light that travel through the two slits are Ï out of phase with each other (that is to say, Ao,- ). If you observe that on a screen placed 4 meters from the two slits that the distance between the bright spot closest to center of the pattern is 1.5 cm, what is the wavelength of the laser?
