Answer:

a) The total force is 4659.8 N

b) The gauge pressure is 50764 Pa

Explanation:

Given:

Pressure inside = 0

Patm = pressure outside = 1.013x10⁵Pa

Pressure difference = ΔP = 1.013x10⁵ - 0 = 1.013x10⁵Pa

a) The area is equal:

A=12*6=72in^{2} =0.046m^{2}

The force is:

F=delta-P*A=1.013x10^{5} *0.046=4659.8N

b) The gauge pressure at the bottom is equal:

P=\rho gh

Where:

ρ = density = 1000 kg/m³

h = 17 ft = 5.18 m

Replacing:

P=1000*9.8*5.18=50764Pa

The coulombic force between two ions is reduced to ______ of its original strength when the distance between them is quadrupled.
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

<h3>1/16</h3>

Explanation:

According to the coulombs law, the force existing vetween the ions is expressed as;

F = kQq/r² .... 1

Q and q are the ions

r is the distance between the ions

If the distance between the ion is quadrupled, then;

F2 =  kQq/(4r)²

F2 =  kQq/16r² ... 2

Divide equation 2 by 1;

F2/F = kQq/16r² ÷ kQq/r²

F2/F = kQq/16r² × r²/kQq

F2/F = 1/16

F2 = 1/16 F

Therefore the coulombic force between two ions is reduced to<u> 1/16 </u>of its original strength when the distance between them is quadrupled.

A light with a second-order bright band forms a diffraction angle of 30. 0°. The diffraction grating has 250. 0 lines per mm. Wh
Luden [163]

The distance between two successive troughs or crests is known as the wavelength. The wavelength of the light will be 1000 nm.

How do you define wavelength?

The distance between two successive troughs or crests is known as the wavelength. The peak of the wave is the highest point, while the trough is the lowest.

The wavelength is also defined as the distance between two locations in a wave that have the same oscillation phase.

Diffraction angle= 30⁰

Diffraction grating per mm= 250

wavelength = ?

Mathematically the equation of bright band is given by

\rm \lambda= \frac{sin\theta}{nN}

\rm \lambda= \frac{sin23^0}{250\times 2}

\rm \lambda= 0.000001 m

\rm \lambda= 1000 nm

Hence the wavelength of the light will be 1000 nm.

To learn more about the wavelength refer to the link;
