A standard 1.00 kg mass is to be cut from a bar of steel having an equilateral triangular cross section with sides equal to 2.50

Elden [556K]

Answer:

The section of the bar is 2.92 inches.

Explanation:

Mass of the steel cut ,m = 1.00 kg = 1000 g

Volume of the steel bar = V = Area × height

Height of the of the section of bar = h

Area of Equilateral triangular = $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2$

a = 2.50 inches

Cross sectional area of the steel mass = A

$A=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}(2.50 inches)^2=2.71 inches^2$

$V = 2.71 inches^2\times h$

Density of the steel = d = $7.70 g/cm^3$

$1cm^3 = 0.0610237 inches^3$

$d=\frac{m}{v}$

$\frac{7.70 g}{0.0610237 inches^3}=\frac{ 1000 g}{2.71 inches^2\times h}$

$h=\frac{ 1000 g\times 0.0610237 inches^3}{2.71 inches^2\times 7.70 g}$

h = 2.92 inches

The section of the bar is 2.92 inches.

High-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a method used in chemistry and biochemistry to purify chemical substances. The pre

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

3.41 x10⁶ torr

Explanation:

To solve this problem we need to remember the equivalency:

1 torr = 133.322 Pa

Then we can proceed to convert 4.55×10⁸ Pa into torr. To do that we just need to multiply that value by a fraction number, putting the unit that we want to convert from in the denominator, and the value we want to convert to in the numerator:

4.55x10⁸ Pa * $\frac{1torr}{133.322Pa} =$ 3.41 x10⁶ torr
