The owner of a company that manufactures drinking cups decides it would be impressive to build an inground swimming pool that is
garri49 [273]

Answer:

The depth is 5.15 m.

Explanation:

Lets take the depth of the pool = h m

The atmospheric pressure ,P = 101235 N/m²

The area of the top = A m²

The area of the bottom =  a m²

Given that A= 1.5 a

The force on the top of the pool = P A

The total pressure on the bottom = P + ρ g h

ρ =Density of the  water = 1000 kg/m³

The total pressure at the bottom of the pool =  (P + ρ g h) a

The bottom and the top force is same

(P + ρ g h) a = P A

P a +ρ g h a =  P A

ρ g h a =  P A - P a

h=\dfrac{P ( A-a)}{\rho g a}

h=\dfrac{P ( 1.5 a-a)}{\rho g a}

h=\dfrac{P ( 1.5- 1)}{\rho g}

h=\dfrac{101235 ( 1.5- 1)}{1000\times 9.81}\ m

h=5.15 m

The depth is 5.15 m.

What is the benefit of developing the atomic mass unit as a standard unit of mass?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The atomic mass unit is 1/12 of an atom of carbon 12, and is a very small amount to represent in kilograms:

1m_{u}=1.66054x10^{-27}kg

m_{u} is atomic mass unit.

This is why the benefits of the atomic mass unit is that it makes the representation of atomic masses easier in terms of the simplicity of the numbers that are used to represent the masses. Also using the atomic mass unit it is easier to compare the masses of different atoms, These numbers would be very small and would require negative powers of 10 to represent them, so it is more convenient to use the atomic mass unit.

A 0.49 m copper rod with a mass of 0.15 kg carries a current of 13 A in the positive y direction. Let upward be the positive dir
Helen [10]

Answer:

Magnetic field, B = 0.23 T          

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the copper rod, L = 0.49 m

Mass of the copper rod, m = 0.15 kg

Current in rod, I = 13 A (in +ve y direction)

When the rod is placed in magnetic field, the magnetic force is balanced by its weight such that :

BIL=mg\\\\B=\dfrac{mg}{IL}\\\\B=\dfrac{0.15\times 9.8}{13\times 0.49}\\\\B=0.23\ T

So, the magnitude of the minimum magnetic field needed to levitate the rod is 0.23 T.
