Answer:

2.5 kg/m³

Explanation:

Absolute pressure = gauge pressure + atmospheric pressure

P = Pg + Pa

The gauge pressure caused by the weight of a fluid is called the static pressure.  It is equal to the density of the fluid × acceleration due to gravity × depth of the fluid,

Pg = ρgh

Therefore:

P = ρgh + Pa

300 Pa = ρ (10 m/s²) (8.00 m) + 100 Pa

ρ = 2.5 kg/m³

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The sensor contains an LDR which has a resistance of 10kohlms in daylight and 100kohlms in the dark.

If the resistor in the circuit is 1 megaohlm, the total resistance in daylight and darkness will be 1.01 megaohms and 1.1 megaohlms.

The percentage difference = (1.1-1.01)/1.1*100% = 8.18%

If the resistor in the circuit is 25 kohlm, the total resistance in daylight and darkness will be 35 kohms and 125 kohlms.

The percentage difference = (125-35)/125*100% = 72%

With the input p.d to the sensing circuit fixed at 12 v, the sensing current will change according to the total resistance. A 72% difference is much more detectable. So the 25 kohm resistor is the better choice.

a uniform electric field E=15 N/C points downwards. A particle with charge q=-0.15 C is placed in the electric field. What is th
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

2.25 N upwards

Explanation:

Answer:

800 N/C to the right

Explanation:

The equation that relates force on a charge, electric field and charge is

F=qE

where

F is the force acting on the charge

q is the charge

E is the electric field

In this problem, we have

E=15 N/C is the electric field

q=-0.15 C is the charge

Substituting into the formula, we find the force

F=(-0.15 C)(15 N/C)=-2.25 N

Concerning the direction:

- The electric field and the force have same directions if the charge is positive

- The electric field and the force have opposite directions if the charge is negative

Here the charge is negative, so the electric field has opposite direction to the force: therefore, it must be upwards.

Sophia is planning on going down an 8-m water slide. Her weight is 50 N. She knows that she has gravitational potential energy (
Pepsi [2]

Answer:The higher up an object is the greater its gravitational potential energy. The larger the distance something falls through the greater the amount of GPE the object loses as it falls. As most of this GPE gets changed into kinetic energy, the higher up the object starts from the faster it will be falling when it hits the ground.  So a change in gravitational potential energy depends on the height an object moves through.

Explanation: Lifting an apple up 1 metre is easier work than lifting an apple tree the same height. This is because a tree has more mass, so it needs to be given more gravitational potential energy to reach the same height.
