(a) Calculate the total force of the atmosphere acting on the top of a table that measures 1.5 m 2.2 m.

Physics

A)
Atmospheric pressure is 101325 Pa.
Pressure = Force / Area
Area of table = 1.5 x 2.2
= 3.3 m²
Force = 101325 x 3.3
= 334 kN

B)
According to Newton's third law, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Thus, the upward force is equal to the force acting downward on the table and is being balanced. The force is 334 kN in the upward direction.

Describe the formation of galaxies.
olga2289 [7]

Today's cosmologists assume that matter was not uniformly distributed in the universe after the Big Bang. Dense places attract more matter than the surrounding area according to their gravitational forces. Over the course of billions of years, these gas agglomerations eventually led to the formation of the galaxies we see today.

Why can't we say a measurement tool is accurate?
sashaice [31]

There are various reasons why a measurement tool cannot be accurate. One of them is thermal contraction and expansion varies according to seasons.

<h3>What are Accuracy and Precision?</h3>

There are two ways to assess observational error: accuracy and precision. Precision measures how closely two measurements are to one another, whereas accuracy measures how close a group of measurements is to its actual value. In other words, precision is a measure of statistical variability and a description of random errors.

We can say that a tool can be precise, but it cannot be accurate. There are various reasons behind that, some of them are :

  • It may not be calibrated properly. If there are no reliable standards to use for calibration, this may occur.
  • Perhaps it strayed. This is why electronic scales include a tare function—they are terrible in this area.
  • Perhaps the measurements are not linear. Our calipers might have been quite precise at the 2-inch standard, where they were calibrated, but inaccurate at other dimensions.
  • Temperature is one environmental component that the instrument might be sensitive to. These effects might be compensated for, but the compensation might not be ideal. This issue affects both dissolved solids meters and picometers.

These are some of the reasons due to which measurement tool cannot be accurate.

Eating. Your muscles in your arms and mouth use energy to feed itself. Then your body digest the food which also takes energy.

Sleep. When your tired, you don’t have much energy. It is said that you use more energy while your sleeping. But how do you become energized if you were using even more energy than before?

Almonds cost $3.49 per pound. A bag of almonds costs $6.95. to the nearest whole pound, about how many pounds of almonds are in
abruzzese [7]

The hint in this problem is in the word "about" or approximately how many pounds.

So we could find the solution by estimation through rounding off.

 

We know that almonds cost about 3.50 per pound and a bag costs about $7.00.

Dividing 7 by 3.50 per pound, will give us $7 ÷ $3.50 = 2 pounds.

The answer is 2 pounds.
