Answer:

The mercury in the barometer rises by a height of 0.0764 m = 76.4 cm = 764 mm

Explanation:

The change in pressure is related to the density of fluid and height risen by the fluid through the relation

ΔP = ρgh

ΔP = change in pressure = P₂ - P₁ = 1.1 - 1.0 = 0.1 atm = 0.1 × 101325 Pa = 10132.5 Pa

ρ = density of the fluid = 13,534 kg/m³

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = height through which the mercury in barometer rises = ?

10132.5 = 13534 × 9.8 × h

h = (10132.5) ÷ (13534 × 9.8)

h = 0.0763948996 = 0.0764 m = 76.4 cm = 764 mm

Hope this Helps!!!

You plan to take your hair blower to europe, where the electrical outlets put out 240 v instead of the 120 v seen in the united
Dmitrij [34]
P = U × I
I = P / U = 1600W / 120V = 13.4A
P = 240V × 13.4A = 3216W

If your hair blower isnt rated for 220- 230V(this is the voltage in EU) you are most likely going to burn it.

An asteroid has acquired a net negative charge of 149 C from being bombarded by the solar wind over the years, and is currently
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

93.125 × 10^(19)

Explanation:

We are told the asteroid has acquired a net negative charge of 149 C.

Thus;

Q = -149 C

charge on electron has a value of:

e = -1.6 × 10^(-19) C

Now, for us to determine the excess electrons on the asteroid, we will just divide the net charge in excess on the asteroid by the charge of a single electron.

Thus;

n = Q/e

n = -149/(-1.6 × 10^(-19))

n = 93.125 × 10^(19)

Thus, it has 93.125 × 10^(19) more electrons than protons
