Application of pressure​

Physics
1 answer:
Nitella [24]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Pressure is the force per unit area acting on a body.

The more the force acting on a small area, the more pressure such a body can be said to exert.

Application of pressure:

  • The heart pumps blood round the body by the contraction and dilation of heart muscles which gives pressure to moves blood.
  • Tires are pumped with air to give them more pressure to carry a car and move.
  • Taps are designed to supply the most pressure in order to release water from overheads.
  • Bullets are fired with pressure.
  • Pressure is used to do a lot of industrial works.
  • Atmospheric pressure ensures there is available air in the biosphere.

Hurry Please !!!!!<br><br> Study the diagram<br> Point C identifies the____<br> of the wave
Nata [24]

Answer: Trough

Explanation: The point labeled C in the wave diagram above is the TROUGH of the wave motion. The trough of a wave motion identifies or signifies the point of least or minimum Displacement by measuring the downward Displacement of the wave. The point A is the CREST which is the opposite of the trough, signifying the point of maximum or upward Displacement of the wave cycle.

Point B is the wave amplitude which signifies the maximum extent of vibration from the equilibrium position of a wave. The point labeled D refers to the wavength of the wave motion which is the distance between successive crest or troughs of a wave motion.

Scientists can use spectral analysis of stars to determine which of the following?
RoseWind [281]
I do believe all of these but core elements can be determined by spectroscopy which includes the use of electromagnetic radiation. Both the surface and core temperature can be measured using light. Surface elements can be found because the absorption lines of different elements in the spectra of the star, but I haven't heard anything about using spectral analysis for core elements.

The wavelength of red helium-neon laser light in air is 632.8 nm.(a) What is its frequency?(b) What is its wavelength in glass t
inn [45]

(a) 4.74 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

The frequency of a wave is given by:

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where

v is the wave's speed

\lambda is the wavelength

For the red laser light in this problem, we have

v=c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s (speed of light)

\lambda=632.8 nm=632.8\cdot 10^{-9} m

Substituting,

f=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{632.8 \cdot 10^{-9} m}=4.74 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

(b) 427.6 nm

The wavelength of the wave in the glass is given by

\lambda=\frac{\lambda_0}{n}

where

\lambda_0 = 632.8\cdot 10^{-9} m is the original wavelength of the wave in air

n = 1.48 is the refractive index of glass

Substituting into the formula,

\lambda=\frac{632.8\cdot 10^{-9}m}{1.48}=427.6\cdot 10^{-9}m=427.6 nm

(c) 2.02\cdot 10^8 m/s

The speed of the wave in the glass is given by

v=\frac{c}{n}

where

c = 3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the original speed of the wave in air

n = 1.48 is the refractive index of glass

Substituting into the formula,

v=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.48}=2.02\cdot 10^8 m/s

Which of the following statements it's true about Sir isaac Newton
krek1111 [17]
The legend is that he discovered gravity when an apple feel on his head. I don’t know what the true story is, but that’s what I’ve heard so maybe A??
Although, I’m pretty sure it could also be C
So... between A and C, however, I don’t want you to get it wrong so I would recommend getting another opinion
Hope this helps!
