The Celsius scale (

).
In the Celsius temperature scale, the temperature at which water freezes is set conventionally at

, while the temperature at which the water boils is set at

. The Celsius degree is then defined as the unit corresponding to 1/100 of this time interval, between the temperature of freezing and boiling of the water.
Answer:
Choice A: approximately
, assuming that the two pistons are connected via some confined liquid to form a simple machine.
Explanation:
Assume that the two pistons are connected via some liquid that is confined. Pressure from the first piston:
.
By Pascal's Principle, because the first piston exerted a pressure of
on the liquid, the liquid will now exert the same amount of pressure on the walls of the container.
Assume that the second piston is part of that wall. The pressure on the second piston will also be
. In other words:
.
To achieve a force of
, the surface area of the second piston should be:
.
Let h = distance (m) to the water surface.
Initial velocity, u = 0 (because the stone was dropped).
Use the formula
h = ut + (1/2)gt^2
where g = 9.8 m/s^2 (acc. due to graity)
t = time (s)
h = (1/2)*(9.8)*(3^2) = 44.1 m
Answer:
The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.
Explanation:
To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.
Mathematically,

where,
are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.
are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.
