Explain why the thermometer has thin walls on its bulb?

Physics
1 answer:
dezoksy [38]3 years ago
7 0
The glass around the bulb in a clinical thermometer (the conventional one) is <span>thin because glass is not a good conductor of heat. The clinician and the
</span>patient don't want to wait half an hour to get a good temperature reading. By <span>using the thinner glass, the transfer of heat into the thermometer's fluid will</span>

A photon of wavelength 192 nm strikes an aluminum surface along a line perpendicular to the surface and releases a photoelectron
alex41 [277]

Answer:

KE=3.529\times10^{−27}\ J

Explanation:

Given that

Wavelength λ=192 nm

So energy of photon,E

E=\dfrac{hC}{\lambda }

Now by putting the values

h=6.6\times 10^{-34}\ m^2.kg/s

C=3\times 10^{8}\ m/s

E=\dfrac{6.6\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^{8}}{192\times 10^{-9} }

E=1.03\times 10^{-18} J

We know that

Kinetic energy given as

KE=\dfrac{P^2}{2m}

KE=\dfrac{E^2}{2mC^2}

KE=\dfrac{(1.03\times 10^{-18})^2}{2\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}(3\times 10^8)^2}

KE=3.529\times10^{−27}\ J

The total weight of a car with passengers is 30,000N. The area of contact of each of the four tyres with the ground is 0.025m2.
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

<em>The minimum pressure car tire pressure is 300,000 Pa</em>

Explanation:

<u>Pressure</u>

It's a measure of the force exerted by an object per unit surface:

\displaystyle P=\frac{F}{A}

Where F is the force applied on a surface area A.

We are given the total weight of a car with passengers as Ft=30,000 N and we also know the area of contact of each tire with the ground as A=0.025 m^2.

The minimum pressure each tire can have is when the total weight is evenly distributed in all four tires, thus F=Ft/4=7,500 N.

Calculating the pressure:

\displaystyle P=\frac{7,500}{0.025}

P=300,000 Pa

The minimum pressure car tire pressure is 300,000 Pa
