Answer:
a) h=10.701m
b) No. On this case a liquid like wine is not good as the mercury, because the wine is composed of water, alcohol and other elements, but specially the alcohol evaporates much easier than the mercury, and that will cause malfunction in the vacuum of the baroemter used for the experiment.
Explanation:
The Torricelli's experiment "was invented by the Italian scientist Evangelista Torricelli and the most important purpose of this experiment was to prove that the source of vacuum comes from atmospheric pressure"
Pressure is defined as "the force that is applied on any object in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the object in the unit area is known as the pressure. There are various types of pressure".
Part a
We have the density for the red Bordeaux wine given
, the atmospheric pressure on the Toriccelli's barometer is given by:

Solving for the height of wine in the column we have this:

And replacing we have:

So the height of the red Bordeaux wine would be h=10.701m. A very high value on this case if we compare with the usual values for this variable.
Part b
No. On this case a liquid like wine is not good as the mercury, because the wine is composed of water, alcohol and other elements, but specially the alcohol evaporates much easier than the mercury, and that will cause malfunction in the vacuum of the baroemter used for the experiment.
Answer:
<h3>F = 35.84N</h3>
Explanation:
Force = mass * acceleration (Newton's second law of motion)
Given
Mass = 32kg
Get the acceleration using the expression d = 1/2at^2
3.5 = 1/2 (a)2.5^2
3.5 = 3.125a
a = 3.5/3.125
a = 1.12m/s^2
Get the net force;
F = 3.2 * 1.12
F = 35.84N
Hence the net force used to accelerate is 35.84N
Answer:
moving the boxes and the furniture up to the fifth floor.
Explanation:
The work done when moving an object up or down is equal to its change of gravitational potential energy:

where
m is the mass of the object
g is the gravitational acceleration
is the change in height of the object
We have two opposite situations:
1) when an object is moved upward,
is positive, so the work done W is positive as well: this means that we need to do work in order to move the object, because we have to "win" the effect of gravity, which pulls the object downward
2) when an object is moved downward,
is negative, so the work done W is negative as well: this means that we do not need to do work on the object, because it is already done by gravity, which pulls the object downward.
Therefore, more work is done when we are moving the boxes and the furniture up to the fifth floor.
I think A is the correct answer because its high is more higher compared to the others, and the mass really does not matter, to know the gravitational potential energy, we need to know how high the object is located because gravity does not show any favor to an object that has more mass or an object that doesnt
Answer: 17.83 AU
Explanation:
According to Kepler’s Third Law of Planetary motion <em>“The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”. </em>
(1)
Talking in general, this law states a relation between the <u>orbital period</u>
of a body (moon, planet, satellite, comet) orbiting a greater body in space with the <u>size</u>
of its orbit.
However, if
is measured in <u>years</u>, and
is measured in <u>astronomical units</u> (equivalent to the distance between the Sun and the Earth:
), equation (1) becomes:
(2)
This means that now both sides of the equation are equal.
Knowing
and isolating
from (2):

(4)
Finally:
