Why is water pressure greater at the bottom of the deep end of a pool?

Water pressure is greater at the bottom of the deep end of the pool when compares to the shallow end of the pool because all of the weight of the water is compressed and pushed down (there is more volume on the deep side).

Think of it like this:
You wear your hat - only 1. It's normal, you only feel the hat fit on. Now imagine that you wear about 10 hats, it starts to feel uncomfortable and after a while, your neck will get stiff due to the pressure of the hats pushing down on your spinal cord. Now imagine 100 hats - the deeper you go, the more pressure is forced on you.

Infrared, visible light, then ultraviolet. Infrared is light that the human eye can not see and visible light is clearly light we can see then ultraviolet is has such a high frequency we can't see it either.

Answer:

a

  t = 3.798 \  s

b

S =  67.91 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height of the helicopter is h=  235 ft

The height of the bed of the truck is h_b  =  3 \ ft

The speed of the truck is v  =  40 \ miles / hour =  \frac{40 * 1609.34}{3600} = 17.88 \ m/s

Generally the distance between the truck bed and the helicopter is mathematically represented as

H =  h - h_b

=> H =  235 -3

=> H =  232 \  ft

Converting to meters

H =  \frac{ 232}{3.281}  = 70.7 \  m

Generally the time at which the helicopter should drop the package is mathematically represented as

t = \sqrt{\frac{2 * H}{g} }

t = \sqrt{\frac{2 * 70.7}{9.8} }

t = 3.798 \  s

Generally distance of the helicopter from the drop site at time t = 0 s is

S =  v  * t

=>     S =  17.88   *  3.798

=> S =  67.91 \ m

Ahat [919]

Answer:

Hence to get the same speed, the ratio of poles of generator to motor should be 3.

Explanation:

We are given that the speeds of the motor-generator sets are same.

In case of motors we have operating frequency 16.67 Hz and now we need to define the number of poles of generator set so that we can get the same speed.

For the case of motor, we write an equation;

f m = speedm x Pm / 120

speedm = fm x 120 / Pm

For the case of generator we write an equation;

speedg = fg x 120 /Pg

Now we know that speedm = speedg

fm x 120 / Pm = fg x 120 /Pg

fm / Pm = fg  /Pg

16.67 / Pm = 50 / Pg

Pg / Pm = 50 / 16.67

Pg / Pm = 3

Hence to get the same speed, the ratio of poles of generator to motor should be 3.

For example;

If motor has 2 poles, then generator will have 6 poles

Is Radioactive decay a way to find the relative age of a rock?<br><br> True<br> False
galina1969 [7]
To establish the age of a rock or a fossil, researchers use some type of clock to determine the date it was formed. Geologists commonly use radiometric dating methods, based on the natural radioactive decay of certain elements such as potassium and carbon, as reliable clocks to date ancient events.
