Interactive Solution 11.13 presents a model for solving this problem. A solid concrete block weighs 100 N and is resting on the

ground. Its dimensions are 0.400 m x 0.250 m x 0.130 m. A number of identical 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

Answer:

The value is }  N  =  66 \  blocks

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the block is W_b  = 100 \  N

The dimension of the block is d =  0.400 m  \ X  \ 0.250 \  m  \  X  \ 0.130 \ m

Generally two atmosphere is equivalent to

P_{2atm} =  2 *  1.013 *10^{5} =  202600 \  N/m^2

Generally 1 atm = 1.013 *10^{5} N/m^2

The area of the block would be evaluated using width and height because we need for the smaller surface to be in contact with the ground in order to maximize the pressure and minimize number of blocks

So

A =  0.250 *  0.130

=> A =  0.0325 \  m^2

Generally the force due to this blocks is mathematically represented as

F =  N  *  W_b

Here N is the number of blocks

So

}  202600 =  \frac{N  *  100 }{ 0.0325}

=>   }  N  =  66 \  blocks

Match these items. 1. Ca 6 proton 2. H 2O 3 fission 3. nuclear decay 7 element 4. nuclear synthesis 8 electron 5. η atomic numbe
Gnesinka [82]

1. Ca → Element

2. Proton → positive

3. H2O → compound

4. Fission → nuclear decay

5. Fusion → Nuclear synthesis

6. η → Neutron

7. e → electron

8. Atomic number → no of protons in nucleus.

Explanation

1. Ca (Calcium):

Calcium is an element with the atomic number of 20. It is an alkaline earth metal. The 99% of calcium is found in our bodies, in bones, teeth.

2. Proton:

Proton is a subatomic particle and it holds the positive charge. Proton is present in the nucleus of the atom.

3. H2O (water):

Water is a chemical compound and it's chemical formula is H2O. It's called compound as it contains 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen atoms bonded together through the covalent bond.

4. Fission:

Fission is a process in which large massive unstable nucleus splits into the smaller, less heavier and stable nuclei. The energy is re;eased in the form of radiations during this process. It's called as the radioactive decay.

5. Fusion:

Fusion is opposite of the fission reaction. As in this case the two nuclei combines to form a single large nucleus. That's why it is a nuclear synthesis process.

6. η neutron:

Neutron is a subatomic particle and it is a neutral particle which is located inside the nucleus. n is a symbol used for the neutron.

7. e Electron:

The symbol for electron is e. It's a subatomic particle with negative charge. It is found in the orbits around the nucleus.

8.  Atomic Number:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. IT is represented by Z.
