Answer:

\Delta p = 90.7 kPa

Explanation:

specific gravity of oil is = \frac{\rho_{oil}}{\rho_w}

\rho_{oil} = 0.85*1000 = 850 kg/m3

we know that

change in pressure  for oil is given as

\Delta p = \rho gh

here density and h is for oil

\Delta p = 850*5 *9.81 = 41,692.5 kPa

change in pressure  for WATER is given as

\Delta p = \rho gh

here density is for water and h is for water

\Delta p = 1000*5 *9.81 = 49,050 kPa

pressure change due to both is given as

\Delta p = 41692.3 + 49050 = 90742.5 N/m2

\Delta p = 90.7 kPa

Miles per hour is velocity so I agree with you. Without seeing any associated question, though, it's hard to say. If the question is, find the average velocity, then velocity is correct. But since change in velocity is negative, that is also negative acceleration.

How is oxygen purified?
xxTIMURxx [149]
Oxygen is obtained on a commercial scale through the liquefaction and distillation of ambient air at air separation plants. A secondpurification process may be necessary if ultra-high purity levels are required. High-purity oxygen can also be produced through the electrolysis of water.

A spaceship is 1600 m long when it is at rest. When it is traveling at a certain constant speed its length is measured by extern
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

speed of the spaceship is 0.495251 c

Time  T = 1.4982 hr

Explanation:

given data

length L1 = 1600 m

length L2 = 1390 m

to find out

speed of the spaceship and  time

solution

we know here

L2 = L1 × \sqrt{1 - V^{2} }

so we find V by put L1 and L2

1390 = 1600 × \sqrt{1 - V^{2} }

V = 0.495251 c

speed of the spaceship is 0.495251 c

and

we know T1 = 1.95 hr

so we find T2

T1 = T2 \sqrt{1 - v^{2} }

put here V and T1 so we get T2

1.95 = T2 \sqrt{1 - 0.495251^{2} }

Time  T = 1.4982 hr
