A 2.5 m tall steel cylinder has a cross sectional area of 1.5 mA 2 EA. At the bottom with a height of 0.5 m is liquid water and

on top of which is a 1 m high layer of gasoline (rhogasoline= 925kg/m3 ). The gasoline surface is exposed to atmospheric air at 101 kPa. Sketch the arrangement. Where is the pressure highest in the water (indicate in the sketch), and what is the value of the absolute pressure?

Answer:

124 kPa

Explanation:

The highest pressure in the water is in the bottom of the cylinder. The reason is because all the weight of the water and the gasoline puts some pressure plus the atmospheric air. So, the absolute pressure would be the one exerted by the atmosphere, the gasoline and the water and is calculated as follows:

P=P_{atm}+P_{gas}+P{water}\\P=110 000Pa +1.0m*9.8m/s^2*925kg/m^3+0.5m*1000kg/m^3*9.8m/s^2\\P=123974Pa≈124 kPa

At exactly 3:14PM, the velocity of a dog running in a park points toward a group of flowers. Which of the following best describ
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Options A, B, and C are all possible.

Explanation:

We know that the instantaneous velocity of the dog at 3:14PM is possitive to toward the flowers. But what about the acceleration to toward the flowers?

If the dog is decreasing speed at 3:14PM, it means that acceleration is negative toward the flowers, hence (since F=ma) the net force points away from the flowers.

If the dog is increasing speed at 3:14PM, it means that acceleration is positive toward the flowers, hence (since F=ma) the net force points toward the flowers.

If the dog is not increasing nor decreasing speed at 3:14PM, it means that acceleration is 0, hence (since F=ma) the net force is null and it does not point neighter to toward the flowers  nor away from the flowers. This happens when the forces acting on the dog are equal to both sides.

Solar Nebula

Our solar system began forming within a concentration of interstellar dust and hydrogen gas called a molecular cloud. The cloud contracted under its own gravity and our proto-Sun formed in the hot dense center. The remainder of the cloud formed a swirling disk called of the solar nebula.

On Planet Y, which has no air, a dropped object falls 9 m in 3 seconds. What is g, the acceleration due to gravity, on that plan
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

a = 2 m/s^2

which agrees with the third answer option provided.

Explanation:

Recall the kinematic formula for displacement under the action of a constant acceleration "a":

yf - yi = 1/2 a  t^2

using the information provided this equation becomes:

9 = 1/2 a (3)^2

solve for a:

9 * 2 / 9 = a

then a = 2 m/s^2

which agrees with the third answer option provided.
