Answer:

The gauge pressure is 147000 Pa.

Explanation:

Height, h = 15 m

density of water, d= 1000 kg/m^3

gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

The gauge pressure is the pressure exerted by the fluid.

The pressure exerted by the fluid is given by

P  = h d g

P = 15 x 1000 x 9.8 =  147000 Pa

Answer:

The gauge pressure is equal to 147 kPa.

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by fluid is given by :

P=\rho gh

Where

\rho is density of water

h is height

So, put all the values,

P=1000\times 9.8\times 15\\\\P=147000\ Pa

or

P = 147 kPa

So, the gauge pressure is equal to 147 kPa.

A 1500-W electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120-V circuit that has a 20-A circuit breaker. You plug an electric hai
Korolek [52]

Answer:

b) 900 W

Explanation:

The breaker trips when the current is equal to 20 A. The power (P) is the ddp (V) multiplied by the current. So, for the electric heater, the current is:

P = V*i

1500 = 120*i

i = 12.5 A

So, to become in 20 A, it's needed 7.5 A, which must come from the hairdryer. Its power must be:

P = 120*7.5

P = 900 W

It takes brooke 10minutes to run 1 mile what is her speed in miles per minutes
hjlf

If you divide miles by minutes, the answer will have units of
miles per minute, which is exactly what you want.

(1 mile) / (10 minutes) = 1/10  mile/minute = 0.1 mile per minute

A block with mass ma = 14.0 kg on a smooth horizontal surface is connected by a thin cord that passes over a pulley to a second
Drupady [299]
<span>We can assume that the horizontal surface has no friction and the pulley is massless. We can use Newton's second law to set up an equation. F = Ma F is the net force M is the total mass of the system a is the acceleration a = F / M a = (mb)(g) / (ma + mb) a = (6.0 kg)(9.80 m/s^2) / (6.0 kg + 14.0 kg) a = 58.8 N / 20 kg a = 2.94 m/s^2 The magnitude of the acceleration of the system is 2.94 m/s^2</span>
