Answer:
Δ h = 52.78 m
Explanation:
given,
Atmospheric pressure at the top of building = 97.6 kPa
Atmospheric pressure at the bottom of building = 98.2 kPa
Density of air = 1.16 kg/m³
acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²
height of the building = ?
We know,
Δ P = ρ g Δ h
(98.2-97.6) x 10³ = 1.16 x 9.8 x Δ h
11.368 Δ h = 600
Δ h = 52.78 m
Hence, the height of the building is equal to 52.78 m.
A big part of the reason that mirrors are seldom if ever used to generate
electricity is the simple fact that there is no way to generate electricity using
mirrors. They are as useless for the purpose as smoke is, although there are
those who have used both items simultaneously to create the impression that
they have succeeded in that attempt.
Viscosity of liquids is essentially the 'thickness' of the liquid. For instance, honey and water have different viscosities. Honey has a higher one and therefore, liquids with high viscosity do not flow as well as liquids with low viscosity (water).
I'm not sure about the rest but for question 2:
A theory is an attempt to come up with a big picture of all we know so far. It also drives future research as people do experiments to see if what the theory predicts actually happens. When experiments don’t support the theory, you have to change the theory and try again. That’s how science works. We come up with a “best guess” (theory), and then do research to test it’s accuracy. As we discover contradictions, we adjust the theory to take those into account, and then start testing the validity of the new theory.
