The pressure is more than the heat so it stays solid :) hope this helped. Have a good day

Earth's inner core is solid even though the temperature is so high because the pressure is also very high.

Hope this helped:)

Coulomb measured the deflection of sphere A when spheres A and B had equal charges and were a distance d apart. He then made the
sdas [7]

Answer:

The new distance is     d = 0.447 d₀

Explanation:

The electric out is given by Coulomb's Law

         F = k q₁ q₂ / r²

This electric force is in balance with tension.

We reduce the charge of sphere B to 1/5 of its initial value (q_{B}=q₂ = q₂ / 5) than new distance (d = n d₀)

dat

     q₁ = q_{A}

     q₂ = q_{B}

     r = d₀

In order for the deviation to maintain the electric force it should not change, so we apply the Coulomb equation for the two points

         F = k q₁ q₂ / d₀²

         F = k q₁ (q₂ / 5) / (n d₀)²

         .k q₁ q₂ / d₀² = q₁ q₂ / (5 n² d₀²)

          5 n² = 1

          n = √ 1/5

          n = 0.447

The new distance is

         d = 0.447 d₀

determine the pressure exerted on the surface of a submarine cruising 175 ft below the free surface of the sea. assume that the
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

92.81 psia.

Explanation:

The density of water by multiplying its specific gravity by the density of sea water.

SG = density of sea water/density of water

ρ = SG x ρw

1 kg/m3 = 62.4 lbm/ft^3

= 1.03 * 62.4

= 64.27lbm/ft^3.

The absolute pressure at 175 ft below sea level as this is the location of the submarine.

P = Patm +ρgh

= 14.7 + 64.27 * 32.2 * 175

Converting to pound force square inch,

= 14.7 + 64.27 * (32.2ft/s^2) * (175ft) * (1lbf/32.2lbm⋅ft/s^2) * (1ft^2/144in^2 )

= 14.7 + 78.11 psia

= 92.81 psia.

Help with question 16 and 17
storchak [24]
<h3>16.</h3>

Your answer is correct.

___

<h3>17.</h3>

The fractional change in resistance is equal to the given temperature coefficient multiplied by the change in temperature.

  R = R₀×(1 + α×ΔT)

  R = (10.0 Ω)×(1 + 0.004×(65 -20)) = 11.8 Ω

A diver jumps off a diving platform that is 20 meters long. Describe the transfer of energy that occurs during the fall.
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer: gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy

Explanation:

When the diver stands on the platform, at 20 m above the surface of the water, he has some gravitational potential energy, which is given by

E=mgh

where m is the man's mass, g is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height above the water. As he jumps, the gravitational potential energy starts decreasing, because its height h above the water decreases, and he acquires kinetic energy, which is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where v is the speed of the diver, which is increasing. When he touches the water, all the initial gravitational potential energy has been converted into kinetic energy.
