Hello!
If you are referring to the mercury substance, mercury is a bright red color, usually used in early thermometers and is deadly if humans have a lot of constant with this substance

Mercury as in the element, or the planet?
Well, i'll tell you both, just in case.
The planet is a dark grey,
and the element is kind-of a silvery-white color.
Hope this helps!
Stay smart,

Why do the pipes in a steam-heating system need to be insulated?

qaws [65]

Answer:

1. Increase Efficiency: Insulating the condensate or hot water return lines reduces heat loss from the water returning to the boiler. The hotter the water returning to the boiler is, the quicker it is to convert back to steam, which takes less energy to accomplish.

A manufacturer claims that a carpet will not generate more than 5.8 kV of static electricity What magnitude of charge would have

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

4.4×10⁻⁷ Coulomb

Explanation:

V = Voltage = 5.8 kV

d = Potential distance = 2.8 mm = 0.0028 m

A = Area = 0.3×0.08 = 0.024 m²

ε₀ = permittivity constant in a Vacuum= 8.85×10⁻¹² F/m

$\frac{Q}{V}=\frac{A\epsilon_0}{d}\\\Rightarrow \Q=V\frac{A\epsilon_0}{d}\\\Rightarrow Q=5.8\times 10^3\frac{0.024\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}{0.0028}\\\Rightarrow Q=4.4\times 10^{-7}\ C$

Magnitude of charge transferred between a carpet and a shoe is 4.4×10⁻⁷ Coulomb.

A man is dragging a trunk up the loading ramp of a mover’s truck. The ramp has a slope angle of 20.0°, and the man pulls upward

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

(a) 104 N

(b) 52 N

Explanation:

Given Data

Angle of inclination of the ramp: 20°

F makes an angle of 30° with the ramp

The component of F parallel to the ramp is Fx = 90 N.

The component of F perpendicular to the ramp is Fy.

(a)

Let the +x-direction be up the incline and the +y-direction by the perpendicular to the surface of the incline.

Resolve F into its x-component from Pythagorean theorem:

Fx=Fcos30°

Solve for F:

F= Fx/cos30°

Substitute for Fx from given data:

Fx=90 N/cos30°

=104 N

(b) Resolve r into its y-component from Pythagorean theorem:

Fy = Fsin 30°

Substitute for F from part (a):

Fy = (104 N) (sin 30°)

= 52 N
