Answer:

We begin by solving the equation P = hρg for depth h: h=Pρg h = P ρ g . Then we take P to be 1.00 atm and ρ to be the density of the water that creates the pressure.

If the depth of water in a well is 10m, what is the pressure exerted by it the bottom of the well ? ( Use g = 10 m/s2)

Tasya [4]

Answer:

The precise answer depends on the density and therefore the temperature of the water, but we can obtain a reasonable approximation by assuming that the density of the water is 1000 kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).

Since the depth of the water in the well is 10 m, the volume of water directly above an area A of a square meters (m²) at the bottom of the well is 10×a m³.

Since the density of the water is 1,000 kg/m³, the mass of water directly above area A is (1,000 kg/m³) × (10×a m³) = (1000×10×a kg) = 10,000×a kg.

Since g = 9.8 m/s², the force of gravity acting on the water directly above area A is (9.8 m/s²) × (10,000×a kg) = 9.8×10,000×a N (newtons) = 98,000×a N.

So the pressure of water acting on area A is (98,000×a N)/(a m²) = (98,000×a)/a N/m² = 98,000 pascals (pa). And since A could be any given area at the bottom of the well, this is the pressure at any point at the bottom of the well.

So the pressure at the bottom of the well is 98,000 pascals (or 98,000/101,325 standard atmospheres = 560/579 atmospheres ~ 0.967 standard atmospheres).

Answer:

John Dalton

Explanation:

Dalton's atomic theory was the foundation for a new understanding of chemical structures. He proposed that matter was constituted by indivisible and indestructible particles "atoms." He theorized that all atoms of a particular substance were equal, and the atoms of different substances had atoms of different sizes and masses.

He also proposed that all compounds of elements were combinations of elements but in a very precise ratio.

Two blocks are connected by a light weight, flexible cord that passes over a frictionless pulley.Ifm1=2 kg and m2 = 3 kg, and bl

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

t = 1.41 sec.

Explanation:

If we assume that the acceleration of the blocks is constant, we can apply any of the kinematic equations to get the time since the block 2 was released till it reached the floor.

First, we need to find the value of acceleration, which is the same for both blocks.

If we take as our system both blocks, and think about the pulley as redirecting the force simply (as tension in the strings behave like internal forces) , we can apply Newton's 2nd Law, as they were moving along the same axis, aiming at opposite directions, as follows:

F = m₂*g - m₁*g = (m₁+m₂)*a (we choose as positive the direction of the acceleration, will be the one defined by the larger mass, in this case m₂)

⇒ a = ( $\frac{(m₂-m₁)}({m₁+m₂} * g$ = g/5 m/s²

Once we got the value of a, we can use for instance this kinematic equation, and solve for t:

Δx = 1/2*a*t² ⇒ t² = (2* 1.96m *5)/g = 2 sec² ⇒ t = √2 = 1.41 sec.
