Calculate the maximum capillary rise/fall of mercury in a 0.5 mm radius glass capillary. Assume that the surface tension for mer

cury is 0.51 Nm/s; Temperature is 15.5 C; specific gravity =13.3, and an angle made by mercury with the glass was measured to be 50o. Assume mercury and glass form a nonwetted surface (5 points).

Answer: 0.01 m

Explanation: The formulae for capillarity rise or fall is given below as

h = (2T×cosθ)/rpg

Where θ = angle mercury made with glass = 50°

T = surface tension = 0.51 N/m

g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8 m/s²

r = radius of tube = 0.5mm = 0.0005m

p = density of mercury.

h = height of rise or fall

From the question, specific gravity of density = 13.3

Where specific gravity = density of mercury/ density of water, where density of water = 1000 kg/m³

Hence density of mercury = 13.3×1000 = 13,300 kg/m³.

By substituting parameters, we have that

h = 2×0.51×cos 50/0.0005×9.8×13,300

h = 0.6556/65.17

h = 0.01 m

A rod 7.0 m long is pivoted at a point 2.0 m from the left end. A downward force of 50 N acts at the left end, and a downward fo
kicyunya [14]

If the rod is in rotational equilibrium, then the net torques acting on it is zero:

∑ τ = 0

Let's give the system a counterclockwise orientation, so that forces that would cause the rod to rotate counterclockwise act in the positive direction. Compute the magnitudes of each torque:

• at the left end,

τ = + (50 N) (2.0 m) = 100 N•m

• at the right end,

τ = - (200 N) (5.0 m) = - 1000 N•m

• at a point a distance d to the right of the pivot point,

τ = + (300 N) d

Then

∑ τ = 100 N•m - 1000 N•m + (300 N) d = 0

⇒   (300 N) d = 1100 N•m

⇒   d ≈ 3.7 m

You are holding a finishing sander with your right hand. THe sander has a flywheel which spins counterclockwise as seen from beh
ryzh [129]

Answer:

c. turn downward

Explanation:

From the information given:

To find the tendency of the sander;

We need to apply the right-hand rule torque; whereby we consider the direction of the flywheel, the direction at which the torque is acting, and the movement of the sander toward the right.

Since the flywheel of the sander is in counterclockwise movement, hence the torque direction will be outward placing on the wall. However, provided that the movement of the sander is toward the right, then there exists an opposite force that turns downward which showcases the tendency in the sander is downward.

A motorbike is travelling with a velocity of 3m/s. It accelerates at a rate of 9.3m/s for 1.8s. Calculate the distance it travel
Misha Larkins [42]

Explanation:

Consider the kinematic equation,

x  = vt +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

where x is the distance traveled, v is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is time. By plugging in known values and solving for x,

x = 3(1.8) +  \frac{1}{2} (9.3) {1.8}^{2}

through simple algebra we get

x = 20.466

where this is the distance traveled in meters.
