A solid concrete block weighs 140 N and is resting on the ground. Its dimensions are 0.370 m x 0.150 m x 0.0820 m. A number of i

dentical blocks are stacked on top of this one. What is the smallest number of whole bricks (including the one on the ground) that can be stacked so that their weight creates a pressure of at least two atmospheres on the ground beneath the first block? (Hint: First decide which face of the brick is in contact with the ground.)

Answer: 18 blocks in total ( 17 add to the original in contact with the ground)

Explanation:

The pressure on the face in contact with the ground ( we choose the face 0.15m x 0.082m)

Pressure= Force ( weigth) /Area

1 Atm = 101325 Pascal [N/ m^2]

Calculate the average value of an AC signal with a peak amplitude of 10V and a frequency of 10 kHz.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

V(average)=6.37 V

Explanation:

Given Data

Peak Voltage=10V

Frequency=10 kHZ

To Find

Average Voltage

Solution

For this first we need to find Voltage peak to peak

So

Voltage (peak to peak)= 2× voltage peak

Voltage (peak to peak)= 2×10

Voltage (peak to peak)= 20 V

Now from Voltage (peak to peak) formula we can find the Average Voltage

So

Voltage (peak to peak)=π×V(average)

V(average)=Voltage (peak to peak)/π

V(average)=20/3.14

V(average)=6.37 V
