Average velocity is 1..2 mi/min east
Explanation:
- Velocity = Displacement/Time
Here, displacement = 48 mi - 42 mi = 6 miles
Time = 5 minutes
⇒ Average Velocity = 6/5 = 1.2 mi/min east
Answer:
Pressure of the gas = 12669 (Pa) and height of the oil is 1,24 meters
Explanation:
First, we can use the following sketch for an easy understanding, in the attached image we can see the two pressure gauges the one with mercury to the right and the other one with oil to left. We have all the information needed in the mercury pressure gauge, so we can determine the pressure inside the vessel because the fluid is a gas it will have the same pressure distributed inside the vessel (P1).
Since P1 = Pgas, we can use the same formula, but this time we need to determine the height of the column of oil in the pressure gauge.
The result is that the height of the oil column is higher than the height of the one that uses mercury, this is due to the higher density of mercury compared to oil.
Note: the information given in the units of the fluids is not correct because the density is always expressed in units of (mass /volume)
Answer:
Reactance
Explanation:
In an AC circuit, the capacitive reactance of a capacitor is given by:

where
f is the frequency of the AC current
C is the capacitance of the capacitor
The reactance of the capacitor tells somehow the "resistance" of the capacitor to the passage of current through it. In fact:
- When the frequency of the AC current is zero (this means, we are in regime of DC current), the reactance becomes infinite, and this is true because the capacitor does not let the current pass through it)
- When the frequency of the AC current tends to infinite, the reactance becomes zero, and this is true because in this case the current changes direction so fast that the capacitor has not enough time to "block" the current, so the current almost no feels the presence of the capacitor.
