Answer:

a} 2400 N

b}240 kg

Explanation:

Pressure is force per unit area.

Given from the question that;

The pressure = 24000 Pa

Area = 0.46 * 0.22 =0.1012 m²

Calculating force from the formula;

P= F/A where P is pressure, F is force and A is area then

F= P*A = 24000*0.1012 = 2428.8 N

a) The weight is 2400 N  in 2 significant figures

b) Mass is calculated from the formula;

w= m* g  where w is weight, m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

2400 =  m * 9.81

m= 2400/ 9.81

m= 244.64

m= 240 kg { in 2 significant figures}

If you doubled the load resistor in a Wheatstone bridge, the load current would not be half as much. Why not?
Fofino [41]
Doubling the size of a load resistor increases the load current. Increasing the load resistance, in turn the total circuit resistance is reduced. The load current would not be half as much since when you increase the size of load resistor then load current increases.

the half-life of carbon-14 is 5,730 years. After 11,460 year, how much of original carbon-14 remains?
Inessa [10]

Via the half-life equation:

A_{final}=A_{initial}(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{h}}

Where the time elapse is 11,460 year and the half-life is 5,730 years.

A_{final}=A_{initial}(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{11460}{5730} \\\\A_{final}=A_{initial}\frac{1}{4} \\\\A_{final}=\frac{1}{4}A_{initial}

Therefore after 11,460 years the amount of carbon-14 is one fourth (1/4) of the original amount.
