The pressure outside (atmosphere) is greater than that inside the tube. This means that the mercury will be pushed up in the glass tube. This phenomenon is called the capillary rise. It shape would be like that of the outside of the umbrella. The answer is therefore letter D.

scoray [572]

Answer: 704

Explanation:Vi = 0 m/s

vf = 65 m/s

a = 3 m/s2

d = ??

vf2 = vi2 + 2*a*d

(65 m/s)2 = (0 m/s)2 + 2*(3 m/s2)*d

4225 m2/s2 = (0 m/s)2 + (6 m/s2)*d

(4225 m 2/m2)/(6 m/s2) = d

d = 704 m

A particle vibrates in Simple Harmonic Motion with amplitude. What will be its displacement in one time-period? A 2A 4A 0
yan [13]

'Displacement' is the distance and direction between the starting point and
ending point, regardless of the path followed to get there.

A particle that's executing simple harmonic motion is always in the same place
where it was one time period ago, and where it will be later after another time
period has passed. 

So its displacement during exactly one time period is exactly zero.
