<h2>Answer:</h2>

(b) 7.4cm

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Given the following variables:

the radius of a glass capillary tube as r,

the coefficient of surface tension of the liquid in the glass as σ,

the density of the liquid as ρ,

the angle of contact between the liquid and the walls of the tube as θ and;

the capillary rise or height to which the liquid rises in the tube as h.

The variables are related by the following relation;

h = (2 x σ cos θ) / (r x ρ x g)           -------------------------------(i)

Where;

g = acceleration due to gravity.

Therefore from the question;

diameter of tube = 0.4mm

=> radius, r  = (0.4 / 2)mm = 0.2mm = 0.0002m

θ = contact angle = 0°

σ = surface tension coefficient =  σs = 0.073N/m

ρ = density of liquid (water) = 1000kg/m³  [a constant]

Taking g = 9.81m/s², substitute these values into equation (i) to calculate the capillary rise, h, as follows;

h = (2 x 0.073 cos 0) / (0.0002 x 1000 x 9.81)

h = (2 x 0.073 x 1) / (1.962)

h = 0.074m

Convert the result to cm by multiplying by 100 as follows;

0.074m x 100 = 7.4cm

Therefore the capillary rise of water in the tube is 7.4cm

Answer:

7.4 cm

Explanation:

The capillary rise of the water in the tube can be calculated by the formula

h = 2Tcosθ / rρg

where T, surface tension = 0.073N/m , r radius = 0.4 mm/2 = 0.2 mm x 1 m / 1000 mm = 0.2 × 10⁻³m, ρ density of water = 1000 kg/m³ and g acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = 2 × 0.073N/m cos0 / (0.2 × 10⁻³m ×  1000 kg/m³ × 9.81 m/s²) = 0.0744 m = 7.44 cm

What is the difference between a Datum and a Datum Feature? a) A Datum and Datum Feature are synonymous. b) A Datum is theoretic
aliina [53]

Difference between Datum and Datum feature is<em> 'Datum is theoretical and Datum feature is real'. </em>

Option: (b)

<u>Explanation:</u>

A Datum is a perfect plane, line, point or surface but only occurs theoretically.

However a Datum Feature is fully based on a tangible surface, axis or point on a part where that theoretical datum is located.

The reason behind in this is they are not equal to each other because the 'part surface' is never 100% perfect.

The important functional features of the Datum is controlled during measurements.

The steel 4140 steel contains 0.4% C, however, it shows higher yield strength and ultimate strength than that of the 1045 (0.45%
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

4140 steel contains 0.4% C  having higher yield strength and ultimate strength than the 1045 steel contains 0.45% C

Explanation:

we have given 4140 steel contains 0.4% C

we know here that 4140 steel is low steel alloy , and it have low amount of chromium , manganese etc alloying element

and these elements which are present in 4140 steel they increase yield strength and ultimate strength of steel

while in 1045 steel contains 0.45 % c is plain carbon steel

and it do not contain any alloying element

so that 4140 steel contains 0.4% C  having higher yield strength and ultimate strength than the 1045 steel contains 0.45% C

Technician A says that a radio may be able to receive AM signals, but not FM signals if the antenna is defective. Technician B s
DIA [1.3K]

The response to whether the statements made by both technicians are correct is that;

D: Neither Technician A nor Technician B are correct.

<h3>Radio Antennas</h3>

In radios, antennas are the means by which signals to the sought frequency be it AM or FM are received.

Now, if the antenna is bad, it means it cannot pick any radio frequency at all and so Technician A is wrong.

Now, most commercial antennas usually come around a resistance of 60 ohms and so it is not required for a good antenna to have as much as 500 ohms resistance and so Technician B is wrong.

When Ontario
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Explanation:

This will be possible when setting them up in summer with a certain quantity of sag, they have already know that the cables won't be able to sag any further because of the heat. During winter, when the cables contract because of the cold weather, the sag will therefore be reduced, but much tension will not be put on the cables.
