<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 value of the work interaction in this process?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The answer is "-121\  \frac{KJ}{Kg}".

Explanation:

Please find the correct question in the attachment file.

using formula:

\to W=-P_1V_1+P_2V_2 \\\\When \\\\\to W= \frac{P_1V_1-P_2V_2}{n-1}\ \   or \ \  \frac{RT_1 -RT_2}{n-1}\\\\

W =\frac{R(T_1 -T_2)}{n-1}\\\\

    =\frac{0.287(25 -237)}{1.5-1}\\\\=\frac{0.287(-212)}{0.5}\\\\=\frac{-60.844}{0.5}\\\\=-121.688 \frac{KJ}{Kg}\\\\=-121 \frac{KJ}{Kg}\\\\

Write short notes on: (any four) a) Suspended ground floor b) Soil exploration c) Baulking of sand d) Bearing capacity of soil e
vredina [299]

Answer:

a) A suspended floor is a ground floor with a void underneath the structure. The floor can be formed in various ways, using timber joists, precast concrete panels, block and beam system or cast in-situ with reinforced concrete. However, the floor structure is supported by external and internal walls.

b) Soil exploration consists of determining the profile of the natural soil deposits at the site, taking the soil samples and determining the engineering properties of soils using laboratory tests as well as in-situ testing methods

c) Bulking in sand Occurs When dry sand interacts with the atmospheric moisture. Presence of moisture content forms a thin layer around sand particles. This layer generates the force which makes particles to move aside to each other. This results in the increase of the volume of sand.

d) In a nutshell, bearing capacity is the capacity of soil to support the loads that are applied to the ground above. It depends primarily on the type of soil, its shear strength and its density. It also depends on the depth of embedment of the load – the deeper it is founded, the greater the bearing capacity.
