Prove p=f/a science chapter pressure​

Physics
1 answer:
Shalnov [3]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Let 'F' be force acting perpendicularly, 'A' be the area and 'P' be the pressure exerted.

Then,

Pressure is directly proportional to the the force acting perpendicularly i.e.

P ∝ F ............. (i)

Pressure is inversely proportional to the area on which force acts i.e.

P ∝ 1/A ........... (ii)

Combining equations (i) and (ii),

P ∝ F/A

or, P = K × F/A [where K is a constant]

If F is 1N, A is 1m² and P is 1 N/m², then K is 1.

So, P = F/A proved...

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

A = 2 cm ,   λ = 8 cm

Explanation:

The amplitude of a wave is the maximum height it has, in this case the height is measured by the vertical ruler,

We are told the balance point is in the reading of 5 cm, that the maximum reading is 3 cm and the Minimum reading is 7 cm. Therefore, the distance from the ends of the ridge to the point of equilibrium is

          d = 7-5 = 2 cm

          d = 5-3 = 2 cm

          A = 2 cm

The wavelength is the minimum horizontal distance for which the wave is repeated, that is measured by the horizontal ruler.

The initial reading for 4 cm and the final reading for 8 cm, this distance corresponds to a crest of the wave, the complete wave is formed by two crests whereby the wavelength is twice this value

          Δx = 8-4 = 4 cm

          λ = 2 Δx

          λ = 8 cm

How do particles move differently in transverse waves and in surface water waves?
elixir [45]
The particles always move parallel and perpendicular to the waves. The waves which are in the water moves a circle. Both up and down and back and forth.

Good luck :)
