A liquid is used to make a mercury-type barometer. The barometer is intended for space-faring astronauts. At the surface of the

Earth, the column of liquid rises to a height of 2185 mm, but on the surface of Planet X, where the acceleration due to gravity is ¼ its value on Earth, the column only rises to a level of 725 mm. Find the density of the liquid and the atmospheric pressure at the surface of Planet X

Answer:

Density of liquid = 4730 kg/m³

Atmospheric pressure on planet X = 8401.7 N/m²

Explanation:

Pressure, P = ρgh where ρ = density of liquid, g =9.8 m/s² and h = height of column at earth's surface = 2185 mm. Since P = atmospheric pressure, for mercury, P = ρ₁gh₁ where ρ₁ = 13.6 g/cm³ and h₁ = 760 mm

So, ρgh = ρ₁gh₁

ρ = ρ₁h₁/h = 13.6 g/cm³ × 760/2185 = 4.73 g/cm³ = 4730 kg/m³

The atmospheric pressure on planet X

P = ρg₁h₃     g₁ = g/4 and h₃ = 725 mm = 0.725 m

on planet X

P = ρg₁h₃ = (4730 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² × 0.725 m)/4 = 8401.7 N/m²

Two equal resistors are connected in series with a 1.50V battery. In order to keep the current at 0.030 A, the resistors much ea
AlexFokin [52]

Answer: 25 Ohms

Explanation:

From this question, the following parameters are given:

Voltage V = 1.5 v

Current I = 0.03A

From Ohm's law;

V = IR

Where R = resultant resistance of the two resistors.

Substitute V and I into the formula and make resultant R the subject of formula.

1.5 = 0.03 × R

R = 1.5/0.03

R = 50 Ohms

From the question, it is given that Thr two equal resistors are connected in series.

R = R1 + R2

But R1 = R2

50 = 2R1

R1 = 50/2

R1 = 25

R1 = R2 = 25 Ohms

Therefore, the resistors must each have a value of 25 Ohms

The acceleration of the object at time t = 0.7 s is most nearly equal to which of the following?
VladimirAG [237]

We have that for the Question "the acceleration of the object at time t = 0.7 s is most nearly equal to which of the following?"

  • it can be said that the acceleration of the object at time t = 0.7 s is most nearly equal to the slope of the line connecting the origin and the point where the graph where the graph crosses the 0.7s grid line

From the question we are told

the acceleration of the object at time t = 0.7 s is most nearly equal to which of the following?

Generally the equation for the Force  is mathematically given as

F=\frac{F}{dx}

Therefore

F=-kdx

k=600Nm^{-1}

now

K.E=0.5x ds^2

K.E=600*(-0.1^2)

K.E=3J

Therefore

the acceleration of the object at time t = 0.7 s is most nearly equal to the slope of the line connecting the origin and the point where the graph where the graph crosses the 0.7s grid line
