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.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

 avriage force F = 2722.5 N

Explanation:

For this problem we can use Newton's second law, to calculate the average force and acceleration we can find it by kinematics.

      vf² = v₀² - 2 ax

The final carriage speed is zero (vf = 0)

      0 = v₀² - 2ax

      a = v₀² / 2x

      a = 1.1²/(2 0.200)

      a = 3.025 m / s²

      a = 3.0 m/s²

We calculate the average force

      F = ma

      F = 900 3,025

      F = 2722.5 N

How much power does it take to do 500 J of work in 10 seconds?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
Power = work/time
  
          = 500/10

marshall27 [118]
Saludos!

Respuesta:

28,64 m/s.

Explicación:

Datos: 

Altura o distancia recorrida: 40 m
Vo: 6 m/s 
Aceleración de la gravedad: 9,81 m/s²

El ejercicio puede ser resuelto facilmente utilizando la siguiente formula, sin embargo es posible realizarlo utilizando formulas diferentes. 

Entonces tenemos que:

Vf ^{2} -Vo ^{2} =2 x g x h

Es importante saber que al estar lanzando el ladrillo hacia abajo, el sentido del movimiento sigue el sentido de la gravedad, es decir es necesario que tomes el valor de la gravedad como positivo (+) y no negativo (-) como normalmente se usa.

Sustituyendo tenemos que:

Vf x^{2} =(6 m/s) ^{2} +(2)x(9,81 m/s ^{2})x(40m) \\ Vf ^{2} =820,8 m^{2} /s ^{2}  \\  \sqrt{Vf ^{2} } = \sqrt{820,8m^{2}/s ^{2}  }  \\ Vf=28,64 m/s

Que tengas un buen día!

Three identical resistors are connected in parallel to a battery. If the current of 12. A flows from the battery, how much curre
Doss [256]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

We are given that

R_1=R_2=R_3=4\Omega

I=12 A

We have to find the current flowing through each resistor.

We know that in parallel combination current flowing through different resistors are different and potential difference across each resistor is same.

Formula :

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}

Using the formula

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}

R=\frac{4}{3}\Omega

V=IR

Substitute the values

V=12\times \frac{4}{3}=16 V

I_1=\frac{V}{R_1}=\frac{16}{4}=4 A

I_1=I_2=I_3=4 A

Hence, current flows through any one of the resistors is 4 A.
