One end is sealed to prevent air from disturbing the scale and measures. Therefore, a Mercury Barometer works on the principle of balancing the atmospheric pressure with the volume of mercury present in the device
Answer:
d. none of these
Explanation:
From the given information:
Let assume that Percival catches Sir Rodney's horse in time "t" after covering a certain distance "s"
Then, using the second equation of motion:

FOR Percival, we have:

FOR Sir Rodney;


Equating both equations together; we have:
0.3t² = 3t
0.3t² - 3t = 0
0.3t(t - 10) = 0
If Percival's position at rest = 0
Then; t = 10 s.
Anything that has mass has weight and anything that has weight has mass simple.
Answer:
Water gets up to the Earth's atmosphere by evaporating from a body of water, which is then they become water vapor. It returns back to the surface by returning back to its water state and falling back down (as rain). The water vapor turns into clouds (clouds are really just water droplets), and when it cannot hold anymore waters, it disperses all the water (by raining).
Answer:
d) 700 m/s
Explanation:
if k is the force constant and x is the maximum compression distance, then:
the potential energy the spring can acquire is given by:
U = 1/2×k×(x^2)
and, the kinetic energy system is given by:
K = 1/2×m×(v^2)
if Ki is the initial kinetic energy of the system, Ui is the initial kinetic energy of the system and Kf and Uf are final kinetic and potential energy respectively then, According to energy conservation:
initial energy = final energy
Ki +Ui = Kf +Uf
Ui = 0 J and Kf = 0J
Ki = Uf
1/2×m×(v^2) = 1/2×k×(x^2)
m×(v^2) = k×(x^2)
v^2 = k×(x^2)/m
= (500)×((21×10^-2)^2)/(19×10^-3 + 8)
= 2.75
v = 1.66 m/s
the v is the final velocity of the bullet block system, if m1 is the mass of bullet and M is the mass of the block and v1 is the initial velocity of the bullet while V is the initial velocity of the block, then by conservation linear momentum:
m1×v1 + M×V = v×(m1 + M) but V = 0 because the block is stationary, initially.
m1×v1 = v×(m1 + M)
v1 = v×(m + M)/(m1)
= (1.66)×(19×10^-3 + 8)/(19×10^-3)
= 699.86 m/s
≈ 700 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the bullet just before it hits the block is 700 m/s.
