Answer:

Acids break down fabrics and can cause burns if the acids are strong.

Explanation:

When working with acids, it is advisable for a scientist for wear a protective apron or lab coat because acids break down fabrics and can cause burns.

Acids are chemical substances that produces excess hydroxonium ions in solutions.

Due to their unique properties they are highly corrosive and are used to remove rusts from any surface.
We they come in contact with the human body, they can cause severe burns especially if they are very strong acid.
If an apron is worn, then the body will be shielded.

Answer:

$d_{2}=0.585m$

Explanation:

The torque is the force by the distance so to determinate that both torque are the same magnitude so

$T_{1}-T_{2}=0$

$T_{1}=T_{2}$

$F_{1}*d_{1}=F_{2}*d_{2}$

$43N*0.30m=21N*d_{2}$

Solve to d2

$d_{2}=\frac{41N*0.30m}{21N}$

$d_{2}=0.585m$

Answer:

(a) 8 V, (b) 144000 V, (c) 2 x 10^(-8) C

Explanation:

(a) charge, q = 5 μC , Work, W = 40 x 10-^(-6) J

The electric potential is given by

W = q V

$40\times10^{-6}=5 \times10^{-6}\times V\\\\V = 8 V$

(b)

charge, q = 8 x 10^(-6) C, distance, r = 50 cm = 0.5 m

Let the potential is V.

$V =\frac{k q}{r}\\\\V =\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 8\times 10^{-6}}{0.5}\\\\V =144000 V$

(c)

Work, W = 8 x 10^(-5) J, Potential difference, V = 4000 V

Let the charge is q.

W= q V

$8\times10^{-5}= q\times 4000\\\\q =2\times 10^{-8} C$

Hydraulic press is called an instrument for multiplication of force. Why?

Lisa [10]

Answer:

Hydraulic press is called an instrument for multiplication of force. Why? Because it uses Pascal's idea and principle: F=p*S. If we apply small force to small piston you will generate a pressure. According to Pascal's law pressure is the same everywhere in closed system so the same pressure will act on large piston on the other side too.

An airplane flies horizontally at constant speed in a straightline direction. Its state of motion is unchanging. In other words

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

sum of all forces on the air plane must be ZERO

So both forces must be of same magnitude

Explanation:

As we know that airplane is moving with uniform speed is horizontal plane is a straight line

so the motion of the air plane is uniform without any acceleration

So we will have

$a = 0$

acceleration must be zero

now by Newton's law

$F_{net} = 0$

$F_1 + F_2 = 0$

so sum of all forces on the air plane must be ZERO
