Blood pressure is usually measured by wrapping a closed air-filled jacket equipped with a pressure gage around the upper arm of

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

a) High and low pressures are 15.999 kilopascals and 10.666 kilopascals, respectively.

b) High and low pressures are 2.320 pounds per square inch and 1.547 pounds persquare inch, respectively.

c) High and low pressures are 1.632 meters water column and 1.088 meters water column, respectively.

Explanation:

a) High and low pressures in kilopascals:

101.325 kPa equals 760 mm Hg, then, we can obtain the values by a single conversion:

$p_{high} = 120\,mm\,Hg\times \frac{101.325\,kPa}{760\,mm\,Hg}$

$p_{high} = 15.999\,kPa$

$p_{low} = 80\,mm\,Hg\times \frac{101.325\,kPa}{760\,mm\,Hg}$

$p_{low} = 10.666\,kPa$

High and low pressures are 15.999 kilopascals and 10.666 kilopascals, respectively.

b) High and low pressures in pounds per square inch:

14.696 psi equals 760 mm Hg, then, we can obtain the values by a single conversion:

$p_{high} = 120\,mm\,Hg\times \frac{14.696\,psi}{760\,mm\,Hg}$

$p_{high} = 2.320\,psi$

$p_{low} = 80\,mm\,Hg\times\frac{14.696\,psi}{760\,mm\,Hg}$

$p_{low} = 1.547\,psi$

High and low pressures are 2.320 pounds per square inch and 1.547 pounds persquare inch, respectively.

c) High and low pressures in meter water column in meters water column:

We can calculate the equivalent water column of a mercury column by the following relation:

$\frac{h_{w}}{h_{Hg}} = \frac{\rho_{Hg}}{\rho_{w}}$

$h_{w} = \frac{\rho_{Hg}}{\rho_{w}}\times h_{Hg}$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$\rho_{w}$ , $\rho_{Hg}$ - Densities of water and mercury, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

$h_{w}$ , $h_{Hg}$ - Heights of water and mercury columns, measured in meters.

If we know that $\rho_{w} = 1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}$ , $\rho_{Hg} = 13600\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}$ , $h_{Hg, high} = 0.120\,m$ and $h_{Hg, low} = 0.080\,m$ , then we get that:

$h_{w, high} = \frac{13600\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} }{1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} } \times 0.120\,m$

$h_{w, high} = 1.632\,m$

$h_{w, low} = \frac{13600\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} }{1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} } \times 0.080\,m$

$h_{w, low} = 1.088\,m$

High and low pressures are 1.632 meters water column and 1.088 meters water column, respectively.

What is the net power needed to change the speed of a 1600-kg sport utility vehicle from 15.0 m/s to 40.0 m/s in 4.00 seconds

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The net power needed to change the speed of the vehicle is 275,000 W

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the sport vehicle, m = 1600 kg

initial velocity of the vehicle, u = 15 m/s

final velocity of the vehicle, v = 40 m/s

time of motion, t = 4 s

The force needed to change the speed of the sport vehicle;

$F = \frac{m(v-u)}{t} \\\\F = \frac{1600(40-15)}{4} \\\\F = 10,000 \ N$

The net power needed to change the speed of the vehicle is calculated as;

$P_{net} = \frac{1}{2} F[u + v]\\\\P_{net} = \frac{1}{2} \times 10,000[15 + 40]\\\\P_{net} = 275,000 \ W$

A thermometer is placed in water in order to measure the water’s temperature. What would cause the liquid in the thermometer to

katovenus [111]

The correct answer should be c.The kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.

If the temperature drops that means that the molecules are coming together. If the temperature rises then it means that the molecules are spreading. If the kinetic energy falls down that means that they are slower which means that they are cooler.
