An advertisement for a certain portable vacuum cleaner shows off its power with a photograph of the vacuum-cleaner wand suspendi

ng a bowling ball by the strength of its suction. The vacuum cleaner can maintain a moderate vacuum inside the apparatus at an absolute pressure of 3.53×104 Pa (against an outside atmospheric pressure of 1.01×105 Pa) when the intake wand is closed. The wand is a hollow metal cylinder with an inside diameter of 3.19 cm. What is the weight of the heaviest ball the vacuum cleaner can lift?

Answer:

         W = 52.5 N

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's law and equilibrium

        F₁ - F₂ - W = 0

Where the force F₁ is the external force applied by the air, the force F₂ is the internal force by the pressure in the vacuum and W is the weight of the ball

The pressure is given by

         P = F / A

         F = P A

        A = π r²

        r = d / 2

        F = P π r²

Let's apply these equations to our case

      F₁ = P_atm π r²

      F₂ = P_ vacuum π r²

We substitute in the equilibrium equation

         P_atm π r² - P_vacuum π r² - W = 0

         W = (P_atm - P_vacuum) π r²

       

Let's calculate

         r = 3.19 / 2 = 1,595 cm

         r = 1,595 10⁻² m

         W = (1.01 10⁵ -3.53 10⁴) pi (1,595 10⁻²)²

         W = 0.657 10⁵  7.992 10⁻⁴

         W = 52.5 N

Now set the tension to low and wiggle the wrench to create more waves. Can you explain how moving the first point on the string,
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

When the string moves, it creates a very small change in the distance to the next point, th

Explanation:

When the string moves, it creates a very small change in the distance to the next point, this generates a restoring force that tends to push the string back, this small disturbance propagates along the string and is what creates the pulse.

This is similar to what happens when a spring is stretched and a restoring force is generated shaved by the law of shortening.

based on how the book describes a heat pump in sec 16.3 how does a heat pump prove law of conservation of energy
sattari [20]
The law of conservation of energy states that: "energy cannot be created nor destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to the other". A heat pump transfers heat from a colder area to a warmer area. As the conservation of energy goes, the energy that comes in, must equal the energy that comes out. Although no machine is 100% efficient, the missing energy is supplied by an external energy source, such as electricity.

Use evidence to explain why glass refracted more light than air or water
agasfer [191]

Explanation:

The refraction is the change in the direction of light while travelling from the one medium to another due to having different speeds in different mediums.

To determine how much light gets refracted, it depends on the density of substance and the wavelength and the angle at which light enters the substance.

Light travels more slowly in denser medium than the rarer medium. The refractive index of glass is more than water or air. Light gets refracted more in this. When the light travels from rarer to denser then the light will get bend towards the normal. When the light travels from denser to rarer then the light will get bend away from the normal.      

Glass is more denser than air or water. Water is more denser than the air. When light travels from air to glass then the light gets bends towards the normal. When the light travels from glass to the air then light gets bends away from the normal.

Therefore, the light gets refracted more in the glass than air to water.

Conclusion of galileo feather and coin experiment
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

This experiment lets you repeat Galileo's experiment in a vacuum. The free fall of a coin and feather are compared, first in a tube full of air and then in a vacuum. With air resistance, the feathers fall more slowly. In a vacuum, the objects fall at the same rate independent of their respective masses.
