Calculate the maximum capillary rise/fall of mercury in a 0.5 mm radius glass capillary. Assume that the surface tension for mer

tekilochka [14]

Answer: 0.01 m

Explanation: The formulae for capillarity rise or fall is given below as

h = (2T×cosθ)/rpg

Where θ = angle mercury made with glass = 50°

T = surface tension = 0.51 N/m

g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8 m/s²

r = radius of tube = 0.5mm = 0.0005m

p = density of mercury.

h = height of rise or fall

From the question, specific gravity of density = 13.3

Where specific gravity = density of mercury/ density of water, where density of water = 1000 kg/m³

Hence density of mercury = 13.3×1000 = 13,300 kg/m³.

By substituting parameters, we have that

h = 2×0.51×cos 50/0.0005×9.8×13,300

h = 0.6556/65.17

h = 0.01 m

The dragster has a mass of 1.3 Mg and a center of mass at G. A parachute is attached at C provides a horizontal braking force of

adell [148]

Answer:

The deceleration of the dragster upon releasing the parachute such that the wheels at B are on the verge of leaving the ground is 16.33 m/s²

Explanation:

The additional information to the question is embedded in the diagram attached below:

The height between the dragster and ground is considered to be 0.35 m since is not given ; thus in addition win 0.75 m between the dragster and the parachute; we have: (0.75 + 0.35) m = 1.1 m

Balancing the equilibrium about point A;

F(1.1) - mg (1.25) = $ma_a (0.35)$

$1.8v^2(1.1)$ - 1200(9.8)(1.25) = 1200a(0.35)

$1.8v^2(1.1)$ - 14700 = 420 a ------- equation (1)

$F_x = ma_x \\ \\ = 1.8v^2 = 1200 \ a$ --------- equation (2)

Replacing equation 2 into equation 1 ; we have :

${1.1 * 1200 \ a} - 14700 = 420 a$

1320 a - 14700 = 420 a

1320 a - 420 a =14700

900 a = 14700

a = 14700/900

a = 16.33 m/s²

The deceleration of the dragster upon releasing the parachute such that the wheels at B are on the verge of leaving the ground is 16.33 m/s²

If a space probe sends back info on an object traveling through space at close to the speed of light astronomers will be working

OleMash [197]

The speed of light in a vacuum is 300,000,000 m/s
That is three hundred million meters per second.
Therefore, the answer is
