Answer:

155.25 atm

Explanation:

Distance, h = 1.6 km = 1600 m

density of water = 13.6 times less than the density of mercury

density of mercury = 13.6 x 10^3 kg/m^3

So, density of water = 1 x 10^3 kg/m^3

Pressure exerted by the water

P = distance x density of water x acceleration due to gravity

P = 1600 x 1000 x 9.8

P=1.568\times10^{8}Pa

We know that

1 atm = 1.01 x 10^5 Pa

So, P=1.568\times10^{8}Pa = P=\frac{1.568\times10^{8}}{1.01\times10^{5}}=155.25 atm

What is Newton's first law
Anastaziya [24]
Newton’s first law is motion. For example, an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Help!!! Line B touches the circle at a single point. Line A extends through the center of the circle.
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

If I understand correctly. Line B is parallel to the circle. Also, the angle is less than 90.

  1. The size of the circle determines.
  2. The diameter should not be fixed either.

An uncrewed mission to the nearest star, Proxima Centauri, is launched from the Earth's surface as a projectile with an initial
Anna [14]

Answer:

42.96 km/s

Explanation:

From the conservation of Energy

(PE+KE)_i=(PE+KE)_f\\\Rightarrow -\frac{GmM}{R}+\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2=0+\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2

Mass gets cancelled

-\frac{GM}{R}+\frac{1}{2}v_i^2=0+\frac{1}{2}v_f^2\\\Rightarrow -2\frac{GM}{R}+v_i^2=v_f^2\\\Rightarrow -v_e^2+v_i^2=v_f^2\\\Rightarrow v_f=\sqrt{v_i^2-v_e^2}

v_e=\sqrt{\frac{2Gm}{R}} = Escape velocity of Earth = 11.2 km/s

v_i = Velocity of projectile = 44.4 km/s

v_f=\sqrt{44.4^2-11.2^2}\\\Rightarrow v_f=42.96\ km/s

The velocity of the spacecraft when it is more than halfway to the star is 42.96 km/s
