Answer:
D)Not enough information
Explanation:
According to Pascal's principle, the pressure exerted on the two pistons is equal:
Pressure is given by the ratio between force F and area A, so we can write
The force exerted on each piston is just equal to the weight of the corresponding mass: , where m is the mass and g is the gravitational acceleration. So the equation becomes
Now we can rewrite the mass as the product of volume, V, times density, d:
We also know that
So we can further re-arrange the equation (and simplify g as well):
We are also told that block B has bigger volume than block A: . However, this information is not enough to allow us to say if the fraction on the right is greater than 1 or smaller than 1: therefore, we cannot conclude anything about the densities of the two objects.
Answer:
B. 17,705.1 J
Explanation:
The hear released when the mercury condenses into a liquid is given by:
where
m = 0.06 kg is the mass of the mercury
is the latent heat of vaporization
For mercury, the latent heat of vaporization is , so the heat released during the process is:
So, the closest option is
B. 17,705.1 J
