In laboratorio, versi in un tubo a U acqua da una estremità e olio dall'altra. Le densità dell'olio e dell'acqua sono, rispettiv

amente, 890 kg/m^3 e 1010 kg/m^3. L'altezza della colonna d'acqua è 18 cm. ▶ A che altezza arriva l'olio nell'altro ramo del tubo? ▶ Quanto vale la differenza fra i livelli superiori dell'acqua e dell'olio nei due rami?

Answer:

20.4 cm; 2.4 cm  

Explanation:

The formula for the pressure p exerted by a column of a liquid with density ρ and height h is

p = ρgh

where h = the acceleration due to gravity

If you have two liquids balancing each other in a U-tube

     p₁ = p₂

ρ₁gh₁ = ρ₂gh₂

 ρ₁h₁ = ρ₂h₂

Data:

ρ₁ = 1010 kg/m³; h₁ = 18 cm

ρ₂ = 890 kg/m³; h₂ = ?          

1. Height of oil column

We measure from the horizontal red line.

\begin{array}{rcl}\rho_{1}h_{1} & = &\rho_{2}h_{2}\\\text{1010 kg/m}^{3} \times \text{18 cm} & = & \text{890 kg/m}^{3} \times h_{2}\\\text{18 180 cm} & = & 890h_{2}\\h_{2} & = & \dfrac{\text{18180 cm}}{890}\\\\ & = & \text{20.4 cm}\\\end{array}\\ \text{The height of the oil column is $\textbf{20.4 cm}$}

2. Height of oil above water

h₂ - h₁ = 20.4 cm – 18 cm = 2.4 cm

vesna_86 [32]

Derek's experiment best demonstrates the effects of gravity, that force made the water go down and  hit the ground, the effect of that was a depression.

The definition of Hydrosphere is all the water of earth surface, so the water represents Hydrosphere.

The definition of Geosphere is the surface of Earth, when the water fell down and touched the ground it caused an interaction between Hydrosphere and Geosphere.

Two forces P and Q act on an object of mass 15.0 kg with Q being the larger of the two forces. When both forces are directed to
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

P=6.25N  and Q=16.25N

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must first draw a free body diagram for both situation, (see attached picture).

Now, we need to analyze the two free body diagrams. So let's analyze the first diagram. Since the body is accelerated, then the sum of forces is equal to mass times acceleration, so we get:

\Sigma F=ma

We can assume there will be only the two mentioned forces P and Q, so

the sum of forces will be:

P+Q=ma

P+Q=(15kg)(1.50m/s^{2})

P+Q=22.5N

We can do the same analysis for the second free body diagram:

\Sigma F=ma

Q-P=(15kg)(0.7m/s^{2})

Q-P=10.5N

so now we have a system of equations we can solve by elimination:

Q+P=22.5N

Q-P=10.5N

Now, we can add the two equations together so the P force is eliminated, so we get:

2Q=32.5N

now we can solve for Q:

Q=\frac{32.5N}{2}

so

Q=16.25N

Now we can use any of the equations to find P.

Q+P=22.5N

P=22.5N-Q

when substituting for Q we get:

P=22.5N-16.25N

so

P=6.25N

Red light of wavelength 651 nm produces photoelectrons from a certain photoemissive material. Green light of wavelength 521 nm p
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

material work function is 0.956 eV

Explanation:

given data

red wavelength 651 nm

green wavelength 521 nm

photo electrons = 1.50 × maximum kinetic energy

to find out

material work function

solution

we know by Einstein photo electric equation  that is

for red light

h ( c / λr ) = Ф +  kinetic energy

for green light

h ( c / λg ) = Ф +  1.50 × kinetic energy

now from both equation put kinetic energy from red to green

h ( c / λg ) = Ф +  1.50 × (h ( c / λr ) - Ф)

Ф =( hc / 0.50) × ( 1.50/ λr  - 1/ λg)

put all value

Ф =( 6.63 ×10^{-34} (3 ×10^{8} )  / 0.50) × ( 1.50/ λr  - 1/ λg)

Ф =( 6.63 ×10^{-34} (3 ×10^{8} ) / 0.50 ) × ( 1.50/ 651×10^{-9}   - 1/ 521 ×10^{-9})

Ф = 1.5305  ×10^{-19} J  × ( 1ev / 1.6 ×10^{-19} J )

Ф = 0.956 eV

material work function is 0.956 eV

If an object is travelling faster than its own sound waves, which of the following is created?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

When an object travels faster than the speed of sound, a sonic boom is created. A ring of pressure waves (probably why wave destruction and pressure cooker are options lol) are created, which is why when you see a jet make a sonic boom there looks like a ring shaped cloud behind it. Hope this helps! For further confirmation/information, just look up sonic boom science (or else you will get sonic boom the video game)
