Glycerin is poured into an open U-shaped tube until the height in both sides is 20 cm. Ethyl alcohol is then poured into one arm

until the height of the alcohol column is 25 cm. The two liquids do not mix. What is the difference in height between the top surface of glycerin and the top surface of alcohol?

Answer:

0.043 m

Explanation:

From the attachment, the shaded part is the ethyl alcohol. The crossed part on the other hand, is that of glycerin.

The height of the Ethyl Alcohol is h2 = 0.25 m, it's density is ρ2 = 790 kg/m³. The density of glycerin is ρ1 = 1260 kg/m³

If we assume pressure at the two points to be the same, then

P1 = P2

ρ1.g.V1 = ρ2.g.V2

ρ1.A.h1 = ρ2.A.h2

ρ1.h1 = ρ2.h2, making h1 subject of formula

h1 = ρ2.h2 / ρ1, so that

h1 = 790 * 0.25 / 1260

h1 = 197.5 / 1260

h1 = 0.157 m

Δh = 0.2 - 0.157

Δh = 0.043 m or 4.3 cm

A transformer has input voltage and current of 12 V and 4 A
Advocard [28]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Input voltage, V_i=12\ V

Input current, I_i=4\ A

Output current, I_o=0.8\ A

Number of turns in the secondary side of transformer, N_s=1177

We need to find the number of turns in the primary side of the transformer. The current to the number of turns in the input and output is given by :

\dfrac{N_s}{N_p}=\dfrac{I_p}{I_s}

Substituting all the above values

So,

N_p=\dfrac{N_sI_s}{I_p}\\\\N_p=\dfrac{1177\times 4}{0.8}\\\\N_p=5885

So, the number of turns in primary side of the transformer is 5885.

In both a dry cell and a wet cell battery, what causes the production of an electrical current.
koban [17]

Answer:

a. chemical reaction

Explanation:

In both a dry and wet cell battery, electric currents are produced through chemical reactions.

Both cells are together called electrochemical cells.

  • In these cells, chemical reactions produce an electric current.
  • They are devices that converts chemical energy into electrical energy
  • The reactions here are spontaneous redox reactions.
  • This causes the current to flow on their own in the circuit.

Find the change in velocity of a 369 g hockey puck subject to the force shown below.
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The change in velocity is 15.83 [m/s]

Explanation:

Using the Newton's second law we have:

ΣF = m*a

The force in the graph is 185 N, therefore:

185=0.369*a\\Where\\a=acceleration made it by the force [m/s^2]

a=501.35[m/s^2]

Now using the following kinematic equation:

V^{2}=Vi^{2} + 2*a*(x-xi) \\where\\V=final velocity [m/s]\\Vi= initial velocity [m/s] = 0 the hockey disk is in rest when receives the hit.\\ x = Final position [m] = 0.4 m\\xi = initial position [m] = 0.15m\\

Now replacing the values:

V^{2}=0 + 2*501.35*(0.4-0.15)\\ \\V= 15.83[m/s]
