How does atmospheric pressure affect the boiling point of a liquid

Physics

Darya [45]3 years ago

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure and boiling point are directly proportional

Increasing atmospheric pressure increases the boiling point also

Explanation:

The atmosphere contain molecules that are in constant motion. They exert a downward force on a liquid’s surface. The higher the air pressure, the harder it is for the liquid to evaporate. Therefore, the boiling point of a solvent or liquid is affected by the atmospheric pressure and boiling point is raised.

A liquid in a high pressure environment boils at a higher temperature.

When placed in a lower pressure environment it boils at a lower temperature.

A 0.600 m long pendulum is used to determine the acceleration due to gravity on a distant plane. If 20 oscillations are complete

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

7.50 m/s^2

Explanation:

The period of a pendulum is given by:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$ (1)

where

L = 0.600 m is the length of the pendulum

g = ? is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, we can find the period T. In fact, the frequency is equal to the number of oscillations per second, so:

$f=\frac{N}{t}=\frac{20}{35.5 s}=0.563 Hz$

And the period is the reciprocal of the frequency:

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.563 Hz}=1.776 s$

And by using this into eq.(1), we can find the value of g:

$g=\frac{4 \pi^2 L}{T^2}=\frac{4 \pi^2 (0.600 m)}{(1.776 s)^2}=7.50 m/s^2$

32. (FR) A mass moving at 25 m/s slides along a rough horizontal surface. The coefficient of friction is 0.30. (A) Use force and

scoray [572]

Answer:

A)s = 104.16 m

b)s= 104.16 m

Explanation:

Given that

u = 25 m/s

μ = 0.3

The friction force will act opposite to the direction of motion.

Fr= μ m g

Fr= - m a

a=acceleration

μ m g = - m a

a= - μ g

a= - 0.3 x 10 m/s² ( take g= 10 m/s²)

a= - 3 m/s²

The final speed of the mass is zero ,v= 0

We know that

v² = u² +2 a s

s=distance

0² = 25² - 2 x 3 x s

625 = 6 s

s = 104.16 m

By using energy conservation

Work done by all the forces =Change in the kinetic energy

$- Fr.s=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2-\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2$

Negative sign because force act opposite to the displacement.

$- \mu\ m\ g \ s=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2-\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2$

$-\mu\ g \ s=\dfrac{1}{2}v^2-\dfrac{1}{2}u^2$

$-0.3\times 10\times \ s=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 25^2$

- 3 x 2 x s = - 625

s= 104.16 m

Consider four point charges arranged in a square with sides of length L. Three of the point charges have charge q and one of the

nydimaria [60]

Answer: $F_{net}=\frac{kq^2}{(L)^2}\left [ \frac{1}{2}+\sqrt{2}\right ]$

Explanation:

Given

Three charges of magnitude q is placed at three corners and fourth charge is placed at last corner with -q charge

Force due to the charge placed at diagonally opposite end on -q charge

$F_1=\frac{kq(-q)}{(L\sqrt{2})^2}$

where $L\sqrt{2}=$ Distance between the two charges

$F_1=-\frac{kq^2}{2L^2}$

negative sign indicates that it is an attraction force

Now remaining two charges will apply the same amount of force as they are equally spaced from -q charge

$F_2=\frac{kq(-q)}{(L)^2}$

The magnitude of force by both the charge is same but at an angle of $90^{\circ}$

thus combination of two forces at 2 and 3 will be

$F'=\sqrt{2}\frac{kq^2}{2L^2}$

Now it will add with force due to 1 charge

Thus net force will be

$F_{net}=\frac{kq^2}{(L)^2}\left [ \frac{1}{2}+\sqrt{2}\right ]$

Explain why filing cabinets are<br>designed so that only one draw<br>can be pulled out at a time.

natta225 [31]

Answer:

Cabinets are made to open one at a time so that there's not much of space taken up when all the drawers are open. Hope this helps.
