Answer:
A mercury barometer is a device use to measure stomspheric pressure and is constructed as following:
- A mercury barometer requires a tube which has one close end, and one open end.
- Tube is placed upside down in a beaker in such a way so that one end open in the beaker and the other remain outside of the beaker.
- The barometric liquid (mercury) is then filled in the tube by pouring mercury liquid in the beaker.
The position of tube creates vacuum between the closed end of the tube and liquid surface and the Mercury has high density that is why used as the liquid to measure pressure.
Incomplete question as many data is missing.I have assumed value of charge and electric field.The complete question is here
A charge of 28 nC is placed in a uniform electric field that is directed vertically upward and that has a magnitude of 5.00×10⁴ V/m.
What work is done by the electric force when the charge moves a distance of 2.70 m at an angle of 45.0 degrees downward from the horizontal?
Answer:
Explanation:
Given data
Charge q=28 nC
Electric field E=5.00×10⁴ V/m.
Distance d=2.70 m
Angle α=45°
To find
Work done by electric force
Solution
Answer:
The mother has to sit 2.17 ft from the center on the other side of the seesaw.
Explanation:
We are trying to find the sum of torques given by the weights of mother and daughter to be zero.
If the torque of the daughter on one side of the pivoting point is given by:
5.5 ft x 63.5 lb x g = 349.25 g ft lb
we need that the absolute value of the torque exerted by the mom (160.9 lb) to be the same in magnitude (and of course opposite direction). So we assume that "d" is the distance at which the mother locates to make this torque equal in magnitude to her daughter's torque:
d x 160.9 lb x g = 349.25 g ft lb
d = 2.17 ft
The correct answer is
C. Light can pass through Object B faster than it can pass through Object A.
In fact, the index of refraction of a material is defined as:
where c is the speed of light in vacuum and v is the speed of light in the material. Rearranging the equation, we can write the speed of light in the material as:
So we that, the smaller the refractive index n, the greater the speed of light in the material, v. In this problem, object B has lower refractive index than object A, so light travels faster in object B.
<span>Taking into account the information above, we know the average mass of the bucket of water may be m=20-5/2=17.5kg. As the bucket of water is pulled at a "constant velocity" the work required to raise the bucket to the platform transformed into the potential energy of the bucket of water. That is why it should be W=mgh=17.5*9.8*40=6860J</span>
