The gauge pressure inside an alveolus with a 200 µm radius is 25 mmHg, while the blood pressure outside is only 10 mmHg. Assumin
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The surface tension is 0.0318 N/m and is sufficiently less than the surface tension of the water.

Solution:

As per the question:

Radius of an alveolus, R = 200\mu m = 200\times 10^{- 6}\ m

Gauge Pressure inside, P_{in} = 25\ mmHg

Blood Pressure outside, P_{o} = 10\ mmHg

Now,

Change in pressure, \Delta P = 25 - 10 = 15\ mmHg = 1.99\times 10^{3}\ Pa

Since the alveolus is considered to be a spherical shell

The surface tension can be calculated as:

\Delta P = \frac{4\pi T}{R}

T = \frac{1.99\times 10^{3}\times 200\times 10^{- 6}}{4\pi} = 0.0318\ N/m = 0.318\ mN/m

And we know that the surface tension of water is 72.8 mN/m

Thus the surface tension of the alveolus is much lesser as compared to the surface tension of water.

If the radius of an atom is 60 pm and the radius of the Earth is 6000 km, by how many orders of
kherson [118]

Answer:

1 x 10¹⁷

               

Explanation:

Given data:

        Radius of the earth  = 6000km

        Radius of an atom  = 60pm

Now, how many orders is the radius of the earth larger than an atom

Solution:

To solve this problem, let us express both quantity as the same unit;

         1000m  = 1km

    6000km  = 6000 x 10³m   =  6 x 10⁶m

    60pm;

            1 x 10⁻¹²m  = 1pm

    60pm  = 60 x  1 x 10⁻¹²m  = 6 x 10⁻¹¹m

Now;

The order:   \frac{6 x 10^{6} }{6 x 10^{-11} }   = 1 x 10¹⁷

A fixed system of charges exerts a force of magnitude 22 N on a 4.0 C charge. The 4.0 C charge is replaced with a 8.0 C charge.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

44 N

Explanation:

The electrostatic forces between two charges is given by:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the two charges

r is their separation

We notice that the force is directly proportional to the charges.

In this problem, initially we have a force of

F = 22 N

on a q2 = 4.0 C, exerted by a charge q1.

If the charge is doubled,

q2 = 8.0 C

This means that the force will also double, so it will be

F=22 N \cdot 2 = 44 N

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

F = M a

W = M g     equivalent equation to express weight of object of mass M

M = W / g = 2867 N / 9.8 m/s^2 = 292.6 kg
