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

Help asap!! The resultant force on the box is
rodikova [14]

The resultant force on the box is C) 10 Newtons to the left.

Explanation:

The figure of the problem is attached.

We see that there are two forces acting on the box along the horizontal direction:

- A force of 10 N acting to the right

- A force of 20 N acting to the left

By taking "to the right" as positive direction, we can rewrite the two forces as follows:

F_1 = +10 N\\F_2 = -20 N

Where the second force is negative since it acts to the left.

Since the two forces are in line, we can find their resultant simply by calculating their algebraic sum. By doing so, we find:

F=F_1 + F_2 = +10 + (-20) = -10 N

And the negative sign tells us that the direction is to the left.

Therefore, the correct answer is

C) 10 Newtons to the left.

A 10.0 cm3 sample of copper has a mass of 89.6
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Density is mass divides by volume, so
89.6g / 10cm^3 =8.96g /cm^3

*cm^3 is a standard unit of volume*

When light reflects off an object, what is the relation between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection?
Mashutka [201]
Angle of incidence is the angle when the light strikes an object while angle of reflection is the angle produced when the light strikes off/reflects from the object.

The relation between these two is that both the angles are equal.

The law of reflection states that when a ray of light reflects off a surface, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

Hope this helps!
