Answer:

The gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet is 416 Pa

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the honey droplet, D = 0.1 cm

radius of the honey droplet, R = 0.05 cm = 0.0005 m

surface tension of honey, γ = 0.052 N/m

Apply Laplace's law for a spherical membrane with two surfaces

Gauge pressure =  P₁ - P₀ = 2 (2γ / r)

Where;

P₀ is the atmospheric pressure

Gauge pressure = 4γ / r

Gauge pressure = 4 (0.052) / (0.0005)

Gauge pressure = 416 Pa

Therefore, the gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet is 416 Pa

What energy change takes place when the photovoltaic cell absorbs sunlight?
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Solar energy - Chemical energy - Electrical energy

Explanation:

A photovoltaic is a device which operates with respect to its exposure to radiation or light. This property determines its applications in electronics.

The energy from sunlight is in the form of solar energy, which get absorbed by the photovoltaic cell. The cell transforms the solar energy and store it as chemical energy. This is now finally transformed majorly into electrical energy as the output energy from the cell. Some amount of heat energy is produced in the process.

A painter lifts a 2.8 kg bucket using a rope. if the acceleration of the bucket in 3.1 m/s2, what is the tension in the rope (in
ad-work [718]
Refer to the diagram shown below

Given:
m = 2.8 kg, the mass of the bucket
a =3.1 m/s², the acceleration of the bucket
Therefore
W = 2.8*9.8 = 27.44 N, the weight of the bucket.

Let T =  the tension in the rope.

From the free body diagram, the net force accelerating the bucket is
T - W = m*a
That is,
T = W + m*a
   = 27.44 + 2.8*3.1 N
   = 36.12 N

Answer:  d. 36.1 N

A sprinter can go from a state of resting to running at 7 m/s in just 3 seconds. What is the sprinter's average acceleration?
liberstina [14]
The formula for this equation is:
change in velocity/time taken = acceleration

7/3 = 2.3...

so the answer is 2.3 m/s
(I am not positive with the answer but I do know that is the formula for the equation)
