5.why does the pointer rotate?​

Physics
1 answer:
morpeh [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: find the answer in the explanation.

Explanation:

From the experiment set up in the diagram, the pointer is resting on the drinking straw while the rod is resting on the drinking straw.

When the rod is being heated through the bursen burner, there will be linear expansion in the rod. As the rod increases its length, this causes the drinking straw to roll and thereby causing the pointer to rotate.

The pointer therefore rotates because of the thermer expansion that happen in the rod due to the heat from the bursen burner.

Why do people make this to the seashore?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Protecting the Seashore

Seashore Conservation Code

When investigating a seashore it is important to remember that the welfare of the plants and animals must come first. If seaweeds are attached to rocks do not try to pull them off, just examine them where they are growing. Handle animals with great care, returning them to the place where they were found. Anemones and limpets are normally firmly stuck to rocks and any attempt to remove them may result in their death. Replace any large stones that are removed – animals that live on the underside soon die if left exposed.

Pollution Problems

Seas and seashores are under continual threat from pollution. Here are some examples:-

oil rigOil spills, either accidental or deliberate, have a devastating effect on marine life, especially seabirds. Black tar-like oil washed up on a rocky shore would obviously completely destroy the entire community of living things. Chemicals used to disperse oil spills on a shore may effectively clean up the oil, but they can also cleanse the shore of life! The best policy for marine life is to physically remove as much oil as possible and leave the rest to degrade naturally. A rocky shore will recover much more quickly if chemicals are not used.

Sewage and litter also upsets seashore ecosystem, making them unsightly and perhaps contaminated. Some litter can be dangerous to wildlife.

Toxic chemicals and radioactive waste - a cocktail of toxic chemicals have found their way into the sea over the years, affecting both marine and human life. For many years potentially deadly radioactive waste from nuclear power stations and other sources was disposed of in the sea, and beaches have been contaminated by accidental leakages from nuclear power stations.

Example 2: a horizontal cylindrical drum is 2.00 m in diameter and 4.00 m in length. the drum is partially filled with benzene (
sesenic [268]
To find the mass of benzene, we must first solve for the volume of benzene inside the cylindrical drum. To calculate the volume of the partially filled cylindrical drum, refer to the working formula below:

Volume = L {(R^2)cos-1[(R-H)/R)] - (R-H)(2RH-H^2)^0.5}

Where:
     L = length of the drum = 2 meters
     R = radius of the drum = 4 meters
     H = height of the liquid = 0.85 meter

substituting the given to the formula, we get

Volume = 5.087 m3

To solve for the mass of benzene, we must multiply the volume with the density.

Density = 0.879 g/cm3 or 879 kg/m3

Mass of benzene = Volume x Density
Mass of benzene = 5.087 x 879 = 4,471.5 kg

<em>ANSWER: Mass of benzene = 4,471.5 kg</em>
