Air pressure is 1.0 · 105 N/m2, air density is 1.3 kg/m3, and the density of soft drinks is 1.0 · 103 kg/m3. If one blows carefu

lly across the top of a straw sticking up 0.100 m from the liquid in a soft drink can, it is possible to make the soft drink rise half way up the straw and stay there. How fast must the air be blown across the top of the straw?

Answer:

v = 27.456 m/s

Explanation:

The support pressure needed of the water in the straw can be calculated by the formula

Given that,

P = r*g*h

= 1000*9.8*0.05 Pa.= 490 Pa

This pressure is compensated by 0.5*r*v^2 of the air,

Hence,

0.5*1.3*v^2 = 490

velocity of air blown into the straw =

v = 27.456 m/s

R1=3 ohms
brilliants [131]

Answer: current I = 1.875A

Explanation:

If the resistors are connected in series,

Then the equivalent resistance will be

R = 6 + 18 + 15 + 9

R = 48 ohms

Using ohms law

V = IR

Make current I the subject of formula

I = V/R

I = 90/48

I = 1.875A

And if the resistors are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance will be

1/R = 1/6 + 1/18 + 1/15 + 1/9

1/R = 0.166 + 0.055 + 0.066 + 0.111

R = 1/0.3999

R = 2.5 ohms

Using ohms law

V = IR

I = 90/2.5

Current I = 35.99A

Yamel is heating up leftover mashed potatoes from Thanksgiving. She forgot to put gravy on them. So she puts the cold gravy on t
monitta

Answer:

The correct answer is - option A. The mashed potatoes will transfer heat into the gravy.

Explanation:

In this case, where Yamel heats the mashed potatoes but forgets to heat the gravy and put the cold gravy on the hot mashed potatoes. Heat always transfers from the high-temperature object to the low-temperature object. So the hot mashed potatoes will transfer the heat to the gravy according to option A. Cold is not a form of heat but the condition of absence of heat or very low temperature.

Thus, the correct answer is - option A. The mashed potatoes will transfer heat into the gravy.

Compare and contrast fission and fusion
Mazyrski [523]
Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy.

Two large thin metal plates are parallel and close to each other. On their inner faces, the plates have excess surface charge of
wariber [46]

Answer:

For left = 0  N/C

For right = 0  N/C

At middle = -7.6836 * 10^{-11} \vec{i}  N/C

Explanation:

Given data :-

б =6.8 * 10^{-22} C/ m²

Considering the two thin metal plates to be non conducting sheets of charges.

Electric field is given by

E = \frac{\sigma }{2\varepsilon }

1) To the left of the plate

\vec{E}= (\frac{\sigma }{2\varepsilon })(-\vec{i})+  (\frac{\sigma }{2\varepsilon })(\vec{i})   = 0 N/C.

2) To the right of them.

\vec{E}= (\frac{\sigma }{2\varepsilon })(-\vec{i})+  (\frac{\sigma }{2\varepsilon })(\vec{i})   = 0 N/C.

3) Between them.

\vec{E}= (\frac{\sigma }{2\varepsilon })(-\vec{i})+  (\frac{\sigma }{2\varepsilon })(-\vec{i}) = (\frac{\sigma }{\varepsilon })(-\vec{i}) = -\frac{6.8 * 10^{-22} }{8.85 * 10 ^{-12} }  \vec{i} =   -7.6836 * 10^{-11} \vec{i} N/C
