Answer:

  W = 529.2 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the translational equilibrium equation, where the forces are the weight of the sergeant and the thrust of the water given by Archimedes' principle

         B - W = 0

where the thrust is

          B = ρ g V_liquid

The volume of the displaced liquid is

          V = A h

   

we substitute

         ρ g A h = W

We reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

         h = 2.7 cm = 0.027 m

         ρ = 1 g / cm3 = 1000 kg / m³

let's calculate

          W = 1000 9.8 2 0.027

          W = 529.2 N

Answer:

James Prescott Joule

James Prescott Joule, (born December 24, 1818, Salford, Lancashire [now in Greater Manchester], England—died October 11, 1889, Sale, Cheshire), English physicist who established that the various forms of energy—mechanical, electrical, and heat—are basically the same and can be changed one into another.James Prescott Joule experimented with engines, electricity and heat throughout his life. Joule's findings resulted in his development of the mechanical theory of heat and Joule's law, which quantitatively describes the rate at which heat energy is produced from electric energy by the resistance in a circuit.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

The current in the primary is 0.026 A

Explanation:

Using the formula

I1 = (V1/V2)*I2

we have

I1 = (6.4/120)*0.500

I1 = 0.026 A
