An unknown immiscible liquid seeps into the bottom of an open oil tank. Some measurements indicate that the depth of the unknown

liquid is 1.5 m and the depth of the oil(specificweight=8.5kN/m3)floating on top is 5.0 m. A pressure gage connected to the bottom of the tank reads 65 kPa. What is the specific gravity of the unknown liquid?

Answer:

The specific gravity of the unkown liquid is 15.

Explanation:

Gauge pressure, at the bottom of the tank in this case, can be calculated from

P_{bot}=\gamma_{oil}h_1 + \gamma_{unk}h_2,

where h_1 and h_2 are the height of the column of oil and the unkown liquid, respectively. Writing for \gamma_{unk}, we have

\gamma_{unk} = \frac{P_{bot} - \gamma_{oil}h_1}{h_2} = \frac{65\frac{kN}{m^2} - 8.5\frac{kN}{m^3}\times 5m}{1.5m} = \mathbf{15 \frac{kN}{m^3}}.

Relative to water, the unknow liquid specific weight is 15 times bigger, therefore this is its specific gravity as well.

5. What is the velocity of a Nolan Catholic football player if he runs 200.0 m in 24.0 s?
Degger [83]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed {\sf{8.33 \: m \:/s \: }}}}}

Explanation:

Distance travelled = 200 metre

Time taken = 24 second

Velocity = ?

<u>Finding </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>velocity</u><u> </u>

\boxed{ \sf{velocity =  \frac{distance \: travelled \: }{time \: taken}}}

\dashrightarrow{ \sf{velocity =  \frac{200 \: m}{24 \: s} }}

\dashrightarrow{ \sf{velocity = 8.33 \: m/s}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!

3. Compare the slope of the velocity-time graph to the average of all your acceleration values. Are they close? What does the sl
Marina86 [1]

The slope of a speed-time graph is the acceleration represented by the graph.

All other parts of this question refer to a lab experiment or exercise
where I was not present, but Zeesam16 was.  Therefore I have no data
with which to answer the rest of the question, and hope that Zeesam can
handle it.

____ would describe an airplane as "Earthen metal infused with Air and propelled by elemental Fire"
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Aristotle

Explanation:

Aristotle  would describe an airplane as "Earthen metal infused with Air and propelled by elemental Fire".

Their presence spread in to the Renaissance from the Antiquity and Early medieval Ages, and was not consistently displaced until the Inquisition and philosophies such as classical physics.Aristotle's views on biblical theory were influenced by physical science. Many of the zoological findings of Aristotle found in his physiology, such as on the octopus ' hectocotyl (reproductive) head, remained incredible until the 19th century.

An object with a mass of 375g is moving with a constant velocity. It has a force of -20 N applied to it. Determine the accelerat
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Explanation:

Convert the mass to kg:

375g = 375/1000kg = 0.375kg

F = ma

-20 = 0.375a

a = -20/0.375

a = -53

The object is accelerating at 53m/s/s backwards assuming that the forward motion is positive.
