The pressure at the bottom of a glass filled with water (r 5 1 000 kg/m3 ) is P. The water is poured out and the glass is filled

with ethyl alcohol (r 5 806 kg/m3 ). The pressure at the bottom of the glass is now (a) smaller than P (b) equal to P (c) larger than P (d) indeterminate.

Answer:

Option (a) is the correct answer

Explanation:

Option (a) smaller than P is the correct answer for the given question. This is because the pressure (P) at any depth 'd' from the top surface of the water with density (ρ)  is given as:

P = ρ × g × d

where,

g is the acceleration due to the gravity

thus from the above equation it can be concluded that the pressure at any depth 'd' is directly proportional to the density of the water.

thus,

in the given case the density of the water is lower than that in the first case.

Hence, the option (a) is the correct answer

What is the resistance at 20°C of a 2.0-meter length of tungsten wire with a cross-sectional area of 7.9 10^-7
Bad White [126]

Answer:

1.4 * 10 ^-1 Ω

Explanation:

Hi,

For this question, we gotta use the formula

R = pL/A

p = The resistivity of your material at 20°C

L = length of the wire

A = cross-sectional area

The resistivity of tungsten is 5.60 * 10^-8 at 20°C

By plugging the values, we get:

R = (5.60 * 10^-8)(2.0)/(7.9*10^-7) = 1.4 * 10 ^-1 Ω

If you peel two strips of transparent tape off the same roll and immediately let them hang near each other, they will repel each
g100num [7]

Answer:

1.

Firstly removing off one strip and it leaves electrons behind, so the strip becomes positively charged.

2. The roll however is not negatively charged because it is "earthed " by the hand holding it, thus excess negatives repel each other away through the hand.

3.Tearing off the next strip and once more it leaves electrons behind, the new strip is also positively charged and will repel the first strip.

4. Then, tear two strips apart and one will leave electrons behind on the other. Meaning that one strip is positive and the other is negative and they will attract each other.

2. Human Impact on the Environment
Kitty [74]
Burning fossil fuels emits a number of air pollutants that are harmful to both the environment and public health. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions, primarily the result of burning coal, contribute to acid rain and the formation of harmful particulate matter.
