A normal blood pressure reading is less than 120/80 where both numbers are gauge pressures measured in millimeters of mercury (m

mHg). What are the absolute and gauge pressures in pascals at the base of a 0.0930 m column of mercury? (The density of mercury is rhoHg = 13.6 ✕ 103 kg/m3. Assume the system is at sea level.)

The pressure value is given by the equation,

P= \rho gh

Where,

\rho represents the density of the liquid

g= gravity

h= Heigth

A) For the measurement of the guage pressure we have the data data,

\rho_{mercury} = 13.6*10^3kg/m^3

h=0.0930m

g=9.8m/s^2

Replacing we get,

P_g=\rho_{mercury}gh

[tex]P_g = (13.6*10^3)(9.8)(0.0930)P_g = 12395Pa[/tex]

In order to find the Absolute pressure, we perform a sum between the atmospheric pressure and that of the Gauge,

B) The atmospheric pressure at sea level is 101325Pa, assuming ideal conditions, we will take this pressure for our calculation, so

P_T = P_a+P_g\\P_T = 101325Pa+12395Pa\\P_T = 113720Pa\\P_T = 113.7kPa

What is the ratio of thicknesses of crown glass and water that would contain the same number of wavelengths of light?
Serhud [2]

Answer:

the thickness of the glass divided by thickness of water is going to be 1.333 divided by 1.52, which is 0.877. So, the height of this glass, in order to have the same number of wavelengths as in water, the height of the glass will be 0.877 times the height of the water, and so it will be smaller.

A charged particle decelerates as it moves from location a to location b. if va = 160 v and vb = 100 v, what is the sign of the
skelet666 [1.2K]

The sign of the charged particle is positively charged.

<h3>What is potential difference?</h3>
  • When a single charge is transported in an electric field, work is done by the potential difference (also known as electrical potential).
  • There is potential energy stored in this charge that could flow when work is done on it.
  • Voltage is the possibility of a single charge flowing. The need to flow increases with voltage.
  • Here, voltage can be the potential differences.

The potential difference between the 2 points determines the movement of that particle. An electron moves from lower to higher potential which is negatively charged, and a positively charged particle moves  from higher to lower potential.

Now, since the particle is moving from a point A having 160 v potential to point B having 100 v potential that is it is moving from higher potential to a lower potential therefore the particle will be a positively charged one.

otez555 [7]

Answer:

net force= 2000-1000=1000

a=v-u/t=5/20=1/4

m=?

m=f/a
