A sealed-tube manometer can be used to measure pressures below atmospheric pressure. The tube above the mercury is evacuated. Wh

en there is a vacuum in the flask, the mercury levels in both arms of the U-tube are equal. If a gaseous sample is introduced into the flask, the mercury levels are different. The difference 'h' is a measure of the pressure of the gas inside the flask. If 'h' is equal to 6.5cm, calculate the pressure in the flask in torr, pascals, and atmospheres. (I need help trying to figure out HOW to get the answer, not what the answer is.)

This problem employs conversion of units.

1cm Hg=10 mmHg
1mmHg= 1 Torr
1 atm = 760mmHg
1 atm = 101,325 Pa

6.5cmHg*(10mmHg/1cmHg)= 65 mmHg = 65 Torr
65mmHg*(1 atm/760mmHg)= 0.086 atm
0.086atm*(101,325 Pa/1 atm)= 8665.95 Pa

The <u>correct answers</u> are:

6.5 cm = 65.00001052 torr
6.5 cm = 8665.93 Pa
6.5 cm = 0.08552632119 atm

Explanation

The conversion rate from centimeters mercury (cm Hg) to torr is
1 torr = 0.099999983814461 cm.

We have 6.5 cm; this means to convert we divide:
6.5/0.099999983814461 = 65.00001052

The conversion rate from cm Hg to Pascals (Pa) is
1 cm = 1333.22 Pa

We have 6.5 cm; this means to convert we multiply:
6.5(1333.22) = 8665.93

The conversion rate from cm Hg to atmospheres (atm) is
1 atm = 75.999995199606 cm

We have 6.5 cm; this means to convert we divide:
6.5/75.999995199606 = 0.08552632119

Triangle KJL is inscribed in semicircle O shown below such that JK=6 and JL=11. Which of the following is closest to the radius
lakkis [162]

Uhh, answer choices?

In any case, since \triangle KJL is inscribed in a semicircle, it is a right triangle (due to the inscribed angle theorem). Thus, by the Pythagorean theorem, KL=\sqrt{6^2+11^2}=\sqrt{157}. Now, the circumradius of a right triangle (the radius of the circle passing through all three of its vertices) is simply half its hypotenuse, so OJ=OK=OL=\frac{\sqrt{157}}{2}\approx \boxed{6.265}.

Researchers measured the bone mineral desnsity of the spines of 94 women who had taken teh drug CEE. The mean was 1.016 g/cm2, a
Valentin [98]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the mean is between 0.985g/cm² and 1.047 g/cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96*\frac{0.155}{\sqrt{94}} = 0.0310

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 1.016 - 0.0310 = 0.985 g/cm²

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 1.016 + 0.0310 = 1.047 g/cm²

The 95% confidence interval for the mean is between 0.985g/cm² and 1.047 g/cm².
