A 3.0-cm-diameter tube is held upright and filled to the top with mercury. The mercury pressure at the bottom of the tube − the

pressure in excess of atmospheric pressure-is 48 kPa. How tall is the tube?

Answer:

Given a tube of diameter d, = 3cm = 0.03m

Pressure Balance

Mercury pressure at the tube bottom Pₓ = Pa + ρgh

where

Pa = Atmospheric pressure = 101kpa

ρ = Density of mercury = 13,546kg/m3

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of the tube?

Given

Bottom pressure in excess of the atmospheric pressure = 48kPa = Pₓ - Pa

Therefore, 48kPa = ρgh

h = 48(kN/m2)/ρg

h = 48,000kgms⁻²m⁻²/(13546kgm⁻³ x 9.81ms⁻²)

h = 0.36m

the tube is 36cm tall

What is the current in a series circuit that has two resistors (4.0 ohms and 7.5 ohms) and a power source of 9.0 volts?
Olin [163]

-- First, we have to decide how to handle the two resistors.

The effective resistance of resistors in series is the sum
of their individual resistances.  That is, they act like a single
resistor, whose resistance is the sum of all of them.

So in this question, the 4.0 ohms and the 7.5 ohms act like a
single resistor of 11.5 ohms.

-- The current in the circuit is

                       (the supply voltage) / (the total resistance)

                   =                (9.0 volts)  /  (11.5 ohms)

                   =                      0.783... Ampere        (rounded)

Pour la seule et simple raison qu'elle s'exerce entre tous les corps de l'univers ( objet, astres etc..

Si on tient compte des frottements liés aux chocs successifs des billes les une sur les autre, au bout d'un certain temps, le mouvement va cesser.

Si on dit que toute l'énergie potentielle de pesanteur est transformée en énergie cinétique, et réciproquement, donc que l'énergie mécanique est conservée au fil des chocs et des rebonds, alors, le mouvement est perpétuel. Le nombre de billes qui remontent est toujours égal au nombre de billes qu'on a lâchées.

La première loi concerne des systèmes immobiles, ou plutôt on considère des systèmes dit "isolé", c'est à dire qu'ils ne sont pas soumis à d'autre force que celle que l'on connait.

Ce qu'il faut retenir de celui ci c'est ça :

Si j'ai un système en mouvement rectiligne uniforme OU immobile, alors :

Avec F1 F2 F3, trois forces s'exercant sur mon système

Attention ! Ici je n'ai pas mit les flèches sur les différentes forces mais elles sont obligatoires ! On parle de vecteur force !

Pour la deuxième loi :

C'est le même principe, la différence c'est que l'on est en mouvement.

 

Avec a le vecteur accélération. Il y a beaucoup de ressource sur le net, n'hésite pas à regarder, la j'ai simplement pu te donner les expressions les plus connus. Mais il faudra les manipuler, et sans exercice sur lequel se baser, c'est plus difficile ! 

La troisième loi est bien moins importante que les deux autres, mais n'hésite pas à regarder sur le net, tu trouveras l'énoncé. C'est la même logique.
