Answer:

Force of gravity, F = 102,900 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height of the liquid column, h = 7 m

Area of tank, A = 1.5 m²      

We have to find the force of gravity acting on the column of water. Force of gravity is given by :

W = m g .............(1)

Where

m is the mass of an object

g is acceleration due to gravity

Firstly calculating the mass of the tank. It can be calculated suing the definition of density. We know that the density(d) of water is 1 kg/liter

Mass, m = d × V

V = volume = area × height =  1.5 m² × 7 m = 10.5 m³ or 10500 liter

So, m = 1 kg/liter × 10500 liter = 10,500 kg

Equation (1) becomes : W = 10,500 kg × 9.8 m/s²

W = 102,900 N

So, the force of gravity acting on the column of water is 102,900 N. Hence, the correct option is (b).

Which of the following describes the effect of a convex mirror on light rays?
natulia [17]
B. It reflects light rays outward.

A convex mirror looks like this ⊂.  So when light rays hit the outward curves, it bends the light rays outwards, and backwards,  and it would appear to be coming from its center called the focus.

2. A 0.8 kg tetherball hangs on the end of a cord. It is hit by a child and rises 2.1 m above the ground. a. What is the maximum
skad [1K]

Answer:

E = 16.464 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of tetherball, m = 0.8 kg

It is hit by a child and rises 2.1 m above the ground, h = 21. m

We need to find the maximum gravitational potential energy of the ball. The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by :

E = mgh

g is acceleration due to gravity

E = 0.8 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 2.1 m

= 16.464 J

So, the maximum potential energy of the ball is 16.464 J.

A parallel-plate capacitor is formed from two 1.6 cm -diameter electrodes spaced 2.8 mm apart. The electric field strength insid
lidiya [134]

Answer:

12 nC

Explanation:

Capacity of the parallel plate capacitor

C = ε₀ A/d

ε₀ is constant having value of 8.85 x 10⁻¹² , A area of plate , d is distance between plate

Area of plate = π r²

= 3.14 x (0.8x 10⁻²)²

= 2 x 10⁻⁴

C = ( 8.85 X 10⁻¹² x 2 x 10⁻⁴ ) / 2.8 x 10⁻³

= 7.08 x 10⁻¹³

Potential difference between plate = field strength x distance between plate

= 6 x 10⁶ x 2.8 x 10⁻³

= 16.8 x 10³ V

Charge on plate = CV

=7.08 x 10⁻¹³ X 16.8 X 10³

11.9 X 10⁻⁹ C

12 nC .

Find expressions for the force needed to bring an object of mass m from rest to speed v in time t. express your answer in terms
VARVARA [1.3K]
Good morning.

We have that:

\mathsf{V = a\cdot t} , since we have rest in the inicial time.

The acceleration can be found with Newton's Law:

\mathsf{F = m\cdot a\iff a = \dfrac{F}{m}}

Now we put the acceleratin in the velocity equation:

\mathsf{V = \dfrac{F}{m} \cdot t}

We want the force, so, let's isolate F:

\mathsf{V\cdot m = F\cdot t}\\ \\ \\ \boxed{\mathsf{F = \dfrac{V\cdot m}{t}}}
