The pressure exerted by a column of liquid of height h and density ρ is given by the hydrostatic pressure equation p = ρgh, where g is the gravitational acceleration.
p = ρghρ = 1000 kg/m3g = 9.81 m/s2convert mm h20 to Pa700 mm H20 ( 9.81 pa / 1 mm h2o)= 6867 Pa 
6867 Pa = (1000 kg/m3)(9.81 m/s2)hh = 0.7 mh = 700 mm

A box is pushed across a horizontal table at constant speed. Of the forces on it, which pair do we know are equal in magnitude b
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Normal force on the box and the normal force on the table by the box.

Explanation:

a)The force of kinetic friction on the box and the force applied to the box by the one pushing it:  This pair of forces is compared by Newton's second law.

b)None of these are interaction pairs: If there is a couple of interaction

c)Normal force on the box and the normal force on the table by the box: We know that this pair of forces are equal in magnitude due to Newton's third law, or, the principle of action and reaction, which establishes that when two bodies interact, equal forces and opposite senses appear in each of them.

When a body A exerts a force on another body B, B will react by exerting another force on A of the same modulus and direction although in the opposite direction. The first of the forces is called the action force and the second reaction force :

FAB = - FBA

FAB: It is the force of action of A on B .

FBA: It is the reaction force of B on A

d)Normal force on the box and the weight of the box: This pair of forces is compared by Newton's second law.

Which describes a train’s acceleration if it changes speed from 25 m/s to 10 m/s in 240 s? positive acceleration no acceleration
OLEGan [10]

To understand acceleration, you need to know speed and velocity.

Why?

Acceleration is the change in velocity, and the velocity equation is:

velocity = distance / time     Units: (m/s)

If a change in position means an object has a velocity, then that means that a change in velocity has an acceleration (I recommend you look at the graphs, it will help a lot to understand the relationship between each).

Now that we have some background, lets use it to answer the problem!

The change in velocity is from 25 m/s to 10 m/s, and we have a time. Lets plug it into the (average) acceleration equation so we can visualize it better!

The symbol delta means "change" : Δ

a = Δv / Δt

expanded to:

a = vf - vi / tf - ti  

(vf = velocity final, vi = velocity initial, tf = time final, ti = time initial)

So if the train's speed went from 25 m/s to 10 m/s, then that means that 10 m/s is our final velocity and 25 m/s is the initial:

a = 10 - 25 / 240

a = -15 / 240

a = -0.0625 m/s^2

Since we ended up with a negative number, it means that the train has a negative acceleration!!!!!

The fast way to do this:

25 m/s is bigger than 10 m/s, so that means that to go from 25 m/s to 10 m/s you have to slow down--otherwise known as putting on your brakes. So if the change in speed is negative then the acceleration will be negative.

In other words, if your final speed is less than your initial speed then your acceleration would be negative.

Sorry for the long explanation! I hope you never struggle with this again though!

Hope it helped,

Question 1 of 5<br> In which way are electromagnetic waves different from mechanical waves?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves differ from mechanical waves in that they do not require a medium to propagate. This means that electromagnetic waves can travel not only through air and solid materials, but also through the vacuum of space.

How significant is air resistance for projectile motion?
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Air resistance have some significant role in projectile motion if the motion lasts for some time.

Explanation:

  • Air resistance or air drag seems to be important in daily actvities and games like baseball.
  • The trajectory of the projectile with or without air resistance or air drag is totally different.
  • When we neglect air drag, the only acting force is gravity against the motion so the maximum height and range are suppose Hmax and R.
  • Now, when we consider air drag, it is important to notice that there are two forces against the motion of the ball and along the direction of gravity. It seems that both maximum height and range are lesser Hmax'< Hmax and R'<R.
