Answer:

300 Pascal

Explanation:

Given

weight or force (F) = 6000 N

area (A) = 20 m²

pressure (p) = ?

we know

the force acting normally per unit area is pressure. So

P = F / A

= 6000 / 20

= 300 Pascal

Hope it will help :)

3. Take sugar, oil, corn syrup, a glass and water. Pour the water in the glass and then add each of the above the substances one

hoa [83]

Here are the observations

Sugar:-

Sugar is soluble in water
so It will dissolve in water .

Corn syrup:-

Corn syrup is also basically a sugar.
It will dissolve in water too .
If we shake the mixture in glass then corn syrup will be dissolved.

Oil:-

Oil is not soluble in water
Hence it won't dissolve in water.
It will float over water and make two layers

You have two contentious friends, Chris and Pat, and you’ve quickly discovered that they need you to resolve arguments they have

pshichka [43]

Answer:

v_average = (d₂-d₁) / Δt

this average velocity is not necessarily the velocity of the extreme points,

Explanation:

To resolve the debate, it must be shown that the two have part of the reason, the space or distance between the two points divided by time is the average speed between the points.

v_average = (d₂-d₁) / Δt

this average velocity is not necessarily the velocity of the extreme points, in the only case that it is so is when there is no acceleration.

Therefore neither of them is right.

A force of 80 N is exerted on an object on a frictionless surface for a distance of 4 meters. If the object has a mass of 10 kg,

solmaris [256]

There are two ways to find energy. Energy=F*d=mv^2. We can use this relationship to find v:
$Fd=0.5mv^{2} \\ 80*4=0.5*10v^{2} \\ 64=v^{2} \\ v=8 m/s$
