Answer:

The straight, diagonal line represent a tangent line

Explanation:

As the shown straight diagonal line represented in the figure just goes by touching a part or points on the curve, this line will be termed as tangent line. A secant line is the one which joins two points on the curve in the inward side. But in this case, the line is touching the outward points of the curve. Also the line is sliding through the curve in outward points. So this kind of line touching some points on any curve is termed as tangential line or slope of that curve.

A box-shaped metal can has dimensions 5 in. by 19 in. by 4 in. high. All of the air inside the can is removed with a vacuum pump
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The force is  F  =  1397 lb

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The length of the box is  l  =  19 \ in

    The width of the box is  w =  5 \ in

     The height is  h  =  4\ in

The pressure experience on one of the sides is mathematically represented as

     p = \frac{F}{A}

Where A is the area of the box which is mathematically evaluated as

    A =  l * w

substituting values

     A =  5 *19

      A = 95 \ in^2

This pressure is equivalent to the atmospheric pressure which has a constant value of  p = 14.7 pi

This implies that

        14.7  = \frac{F}{95}

=>   F  =  14.7 *95

=>    F  =  1397 lb

Imagine how mercury might be different if it had the same mass as earth. Explain.
maxonik [38]
I believe if it were heavier with more mass, then the sun would pull it in and there would be no mercury. It might also be hotter.

How are density and pressure related related to each other?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The pressure is the measure of force acting on a unit area. Density is the measure of how closely any given entity is packed, or it is the ratio of the mass of the entity to its volume. The relation between pressure and density is direct. Change in pressure will be reflected in a change in density

A skateboarder rolls off a 2.5 m high bridge into the river. If the skateboarder was originally moving at 7.0 m/s, how much time
saul85 [17]

Answer:

  t = 0.714 s and  x = 5.0 m

Explanation:

This is a projectile throwing exercise, in this case when the skater leaves the bridge he goes with horizontal speed

         vₓ = 7.0 m / s

Let's find the time it takes to get to the river

         y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

the initial vertical speed is zero and when it reaches the river its height is zero

        0 = y₀ + 0 - ½ g t²

        t = \sqrt{\frac{2y_o}{g}  }

        t = ra 2 2.5 / 9.8

        t = 0.714 s

the distance traveled is

       x = vₓ t

       x = 7.0 0.714

       x = 5.0 m
