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.

hram777 [196]

Answer:

Los gases siempre se adaptaran al volumen del contenedor en el que estén.

Entonces, si baja la presión del gas, la temperatura se mantendrá constante, lo que implica que tiene que aumentar la temperatura, pues para un gas ideal tenemos:

P*V = n*k*T

donde si el frasco esta cerrado, tenemos que n, k y V son constantes, entonces:

P = (n*k/V)*T

P = constante*T

(Notar que si el frasco no estuviera cerrado, entonces el numero n variaría de forma incontrolable, y este problema no se podría resolver de forma sencilla)

Entonces, si la presión baja, también baja la temperatura, pero el volumen se mantendrá constante, eso es lo importante.

Como el volumen se mantiene constante, el volumen que tomara el gas va a ser igual al volumen del frasco, sabemos que el volumen de un cilindro es:

V = (pi*r^2*h)

donde:

r = radio

pi = 3.14

h = altura.

en este caso, r = 5'' = 5 in

                       h = 7 in

Entonces el volumen sera:

V = 3.14*(5in)^2*7in = 549.5 in^2

2. A jack exerts a vertical force of 4.5 X 103
skad [1K]

Correct Question:-

A jack exerts a vertical force of 4.5 × 10³

newtons to raise a car 0.25 meter. How much

work is done by the jack?

\\  \\

Given :-

\star  \sf  \small force = 4.5 \times  {10}^{3}  \: newton

\star  \sf  \small distance = 0.25 \: meter

\\  \\

To find:-

\sf \star \: work = \: ?

\\  \\

Solution:-

we know :-

\bf \dag \boxed{ \rm work = force \times distance}

\\  \\

So:-

\dashrightarrow \sf work = force \times distance

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times 0.5 \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times  \frac{0 \cancel.5}{10}  \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times  \frac{5}{10}  \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times  \cancel \frac{5}{10}  \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{4\cancel.5}{10}  \times 1 {0}^{3} \times  \dfrac{1}{2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45}{10}  \times 1 {0}^{3} \times  \dfrac{1}{2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45}{10 {}^{0} }  \times 1 {0}^{3 - 1} \times  \dfrac{1}{2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45}{10 {}^{0} }  \times 1 {0}^{2} \times  \dfrac{1}{2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45}{1}  \times 1 {0}^{2} \times  \dfrac{1}{2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45 \times 10 \times  \cancel{10}}{ \cancel2} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =  \dfrac{45 \times 10 \times 5}{ 1} \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \sf work =225 \times 10

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow \bf work =\red{2250\: joule}
