What is the difference between alcoholic and Mercury thermometer based on their function? ​

Physics
1 answer:
user100 [1]2 years ago
3 0
Alcohol filled thermometer is used for low temperature applications. (Weather) It’s freezing point is -70 degC
While mercury freezes at -38 deg C

Mercury is/was better for human and other animal temps. High thermal coefficient of expansion mercury vs. alcohol = better resolution for small temperature changes in a medical application.

For higher temperatures alcohol will boil before mercury will.

Answer:

minimum angle is 128.69°

Explanation:

given data

player velocity with respect ground v1 = 3.5 m/s

ball velocity with respect himself v2 = 5.6 m/s

to find out

smallest angle

solution

we know ball velocity with respect field will be

ball velocity = v1  +v2

ball velocity = 3.5 + 5.6 = 9.1m/s

we consider angle that player hit ball is θ

then by as per figure triangle

cosθ = \frac{v1}{v2}

cosθ = \frac{3.5}{5.6}

θ = 51.31

so minimum angle is 180 - 51.31 = 128.69°

A loop of area 0.100 m² is oriented at a 15.5 degree angle to a 0.500 T magnetic field. It rotates until it is at a 45.0 degree
MatroZZZ [7]

The resulting change in the magnetic flux is =0.013Wb

what is magnetic flux?

Magnetic flux is defined as the number of magnetic field lines passing through a given closed surface. It provides the measurement of the total magnetic field that passes through a given surface area

Given:

At degree =15.5°,magnetic flux=magnetic field=0.500T

At degree=45.0°, magnetic field=0.500T

Magnetic flux=magnetic field ×Area×cos(angle)

magnetic flux (1) = 0.500×0.1×cos(15.5)

= 0.048

magnetic flux (2) = 0.500×0.1×cos(45)

=0.035

Resulting change in flux = 0.048-0.035

= 0.013Wb

Which sphere of Earth is associated with plate tectonics?
Marrrta [24]

When looking at this question, we can easily start by eliminating certain answers. In the selections you've provided, you've shown atmosphere. We can easily eliminate letter A, as that makes absolutely no sense. Moving on, you also eliminate letter B, as that deals with ecosystems and whatnot. And finally, you can eliminate hydrosphere, letter C - as that's not the same. That deals with water, like oceans or rivers.

That leaves you with D) Lithosphere for your answer. The Lithosphere is the rigid part of the earth, the outermost layer, I would say. The crust / mantle. That's why it would be letter D - plate tectonics seem to have relations with the Lithosphere. The lithosphere is affected.

Zad. 2 W marszobiegu chłopiec przebiegł 900 m w ciągu 205 min, a następnie przeszedł 300m w tym danym czasie. Jaka była średnia
USPshnik [31]

Odpowiedź:

0,049 m / s

Wyjaśnienie:

Biorąc pod uwagę, że:

Dystans biegu = 900m

Czas trwania = 205 minut

Długość przejścia = 300 m

Zajęty czas = 205 minut

Średnia prędkość :

(Przebieg + pokonany dystans) / całkowity czas

Średnia prędkość :

(900 m +. 300 m) / 205 + 205

1200 m / 410 minut

Minuty do sekund

1200 / (410 * 60)

1200/24600

= 0,0487804

= 0,049 m / s
