Why is salt water a better conductor of electricity than river water?

Physics
1 answer:
Tamiku [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: The conductivity of water depends on the concentration of dissolved ions in solution. ... This is because the Sodium Chloride salt dissociates into ions. Hence sea water is about a million times more conductive than fresh water.

A diamond with a mass of 45 g hangs motionless from a chain. what is the upward force of the chain on the diamond?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
The upward force of the chain on the diamond would be the tension in the chain, and this tension would have to support the weight of the 45g that hangs from the chain.

mass = 45 g = 45/1000 kg = 0.045kg

Weight = mg = 0.045 * 10 ≈ 0.45N,            g ≈ 10 m/s²

<span>So the upward force is ≈ </span><span>0.45N. </span>

There are four springs stretched by the same mass.
brilliants [131]

Spring C stretches 100 cm.

Explanation:

The spring constant is simply the stiffness of the spring. The higher the spring constant the more stiff the spring is.

Spring constant shows the force needed to stretch a spring from it's equilibrium position. If a material requires more force to cause it to stretch, it will have a high spring constant.

          According to hooke's law "the force needed to extended an elastic material is directly proportional to its extension"

          F = ke

   k is the spring constant

   e is the extension

We see that the spring that stretches by 100 is the less stiff compared to other springs. It has the smallest spring constant.

The area of the piston to the master cylinder in a hydraulic braking system of a car is 0.6 square inches. If a force of 5.6 lb
balu736 [363]

Answer:

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

Explanation:

Force applied on the piston = F_1=5.6 lb

Area of the piston = A_1=0.6 inches^2

Force applied on the brakes = F_2

Area of the brakes = A_2=1.8 inches^2

Applying Pascal's law: 'For an incompressible fluid pressure at one surface is equal to the pressure at other surface'.

\frac{F_1}{A_2}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}

F_2=\frac{5.6 lb\times 1.8 inhes^2}{0.6 inches^2}=16.8 lb

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.
