A mercury thermometer has a glass bulb of interior volume 0.100 cm3 at 10°c. the glass capillary 10) tube above the bulb has an

inner cross-sectional area of 0.012 mm2. the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 1.8 × 10-4 k-1. if the expansion of the glass is negligible, how much will the mercury rise in the capillary tube when the temperature rises from 5°c to 35°c if the bulb was full at 5°c?

Initial volume of mercury is
V = 0.1 cm³

The temperature rise is 35 - 5 = 30 ⁰C = 30 ⁰K.

Because the coefficient of volume expansion is 1.8x10⁻⁴ 1/K, the change in volume of the mercury is 
ΔV = (1.8x10⁻⁴ 1/K)*(30 ⁰K)(0.1 cm³) = 5.4x10⁻⁴ cm³

The cross sectional area of the tube is
A = 0.012 mm² = (0.012x10⁻² cm²).
Therefore the rise of mercury in the tube is
h = ΔV/A
   = (5.4x10⁻⁴ cm³)/(0.012x10⁻² cm²)
   = 4.5 cm

Answer: 4.5 cm

This problem is about Density.

Density is the ratio of mass to the volume of the object.

\large {\boxed {\rho = \frac{ m }{ V } } }

<em>ρ = density of object ( kg / m³ )</em>

<em>m = mass of object ( kg )</em>

<em>V = volume of object ( m³ )</em>

\texttt{ }

The volume expansion of object could be calculated using this following formula.

\boxed {V = Vo ( 1 + 3 \alpha \Delta t )}

where:

<em>V = final volume after expansion ( m³ )</em>

<em>Vo = initial volume before expansion ( m³ )</em>

<em>α = coefficient of expansion ( /K )</em>

<em>Δt = change in temperature ( K )</em>

<em>Let's tackle the problem!</em>

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

initial volume = Vo = 0.100 cm³

cross-sectional area = A = 0.012 mm² = 0.012 × 10⁻² cm²

coefficient of volume expansion of mercury = γ = 1.8 × 10⁻⁴ /K

change in temperature = Δt = 35 - 5 = 30°C

<u>Asked:</u>

the rise of mercury column = h = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

h = \Delta V \div A

h = (V_o \gamma \Delta t) \div A

h = (0.100 \times 1.8 \times 10^{-4} \times 30) \div (0.012 \times 10^{-2})

h = 4.5 \texttt{ cm}

In 0.601 s, a 13.1-kg block is pulled through a distance of 4.19 m on a frictionless horizontal surface, starting from rest. The
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

0.615 m

Explanation:

We need to determine the force on the spring first. By Newton's second law of motion, force is the product of the mass and acceleration. The mass is given.

The acceleration is determined using the equation of motion.

Given parameters:

Initial velocity, <em>u</em> = 0.00 m/s

Distance, <em>s</em> = 4.19 m

Time, <em>t</em> = 0.601 s

We use the equation

s = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

With <em>u</em> = 0.00 m/s,

s = \frac{1}{2}at^2

a = \dfrac{2s}{t^2}

a = \dfrac{2\times4.19\text{ m}}{(0.601\text{ s})^2} = 23.2\text{ m/s}^2

The force is

F = (13.1\text{ kg})(23.2\text{ m/s}^2) = 303.92 \text{ N}

From Hooke's law, the extension, <em>e</em>, of a string is given by

e = \dfrac{F}{k}

where <em>k</em> is the spring constant.

Hence,

e = \dfrac{303.92\text{ N}}{494\text{ N/m}} = 0.615\text{ m}
