a passenger on cruise between San Juan, Puerto Rico and Miami, Florida accidentally drops a souvenir metal cube over the side of

the boat, into the water. Each side of the metal cube measures 1 meter. The cube promptly sinks to the deepest part of the Puero Rico Trench. Once at the bottom, what pressure does the cube experience? Neglect Atmospheric Pressure. Use wikipedia to see depth of Trench!

Answer:

P = 84.1 MPa

Explanation:

  • The pressure at the bottom of column of of salt water of height h, is given by the following expression:

       P = \rho * g * h  (1)

       where ρ = density of salt water (in Kg/m³),

       g = acceleration due to  gravity  (in m/s²)

       h = height of the column of water.

  • Replacing by their values in (1):

      P = \rho * g * h  = 1023.6kg/m3*9.8m/s2*8380m = 84.1 MPa  (2)

  • Neglecting the atmospheric pressure, the pressure on the cube at the bottom of Puerto Rico Trench is given by (2):
  • P = 84.1 MPa.

A toy rocket is launched with an initial velocity of 12.0 m/s in the horizontal direction from the roof of a 30.0-m-tall buildin
OlgaM077 [116]

Solution :

The motion in the y direction.

The time taken by the toy rocket to hit the ground,

$S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

S = distance travelled = 30 m

u = 0 m/s

a = $9.8 \ m/sec^2$

t= time in seconds

Therefore, $30 =\frac{1}{2}9.8 t^2$

t = 2.47 sec

Now motion in the x direction,

u = 12 m/sec

$a=1.6 t \ m/sec^3$

Upon integration 'v' with respect to 't'

$v=\frac{1.6t^2}{2}+12$

Once again integrating with respect to t,

$s=\frac{1.6t^3}{6}+12 t$

$s=\frac{1.6(2.47)^3}{6}+12 (2.47)$

  = 0.0176+29.64

   = 29.65 m

Therefore, the toy rocket will hit the ground at 29.65 m from the building.

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

a) S = 1.69 10⁹ W/m², b)  P = 5.63 Pa , c) F = 20.6 10⁻¹² N

Explanation:

a) The intensity defined as the energy per unit area

    S = U / A

Area of ​​a circle is

    W = 6.2 mw = 6.2 10-3 W

    R = 1080 nm = 1080 10⁻⁹ m  = 1.080 10⁻⁶ m

   A = π R2

   A = π (1,080 10⁻⁶)²

   A = 3.66 10 -12 m²

   S = 6.2 10-3 / 3.66 10-12

   S = 1.69 10⁹ W / m²

b) The radiation pressure

   P = 1 / c (dU / dt) / A

   S = (dU / dt) / A

   

   P = S / c

   P = 1.69 10 9 / 3. 108

   P = 5.63 Pa

c) the definition of pressure is force over area

   P = F / A

   F = P A

   F = 5.63 3.66 10⁻¹²

   F = 20.6 10⁻¹² N

d) for this we use Newton's second law

   F = ma

   a = F / m

A cook had a jar containing a sweet food and a jar containing a sour food. The sweet food has a strong attraction between its mo
patriot [66]

Answer:

The sweet food changed because the molecules were able to move fast enough to overcome the attraction between them with its molecules now moving away from each other.

Explanation:

We are told that the sweet food has a strong attraction between its molecules, and the sour food has a weak attraction between its molecules.

This means that the molecules in the sweet food would be moving at a faster rate than in the sour food because of the strong forces of attraction. Therefore, the molecules in the sweet food would be moving far away from each other hence the change of phase.
