Efficiency = (energy that does the job) / (total energy used)
= (45 J) / (120J)
I think you can handle the division.
Alcohol filled thermometer is used for low temperature applications. (Weather) It’s freezing point is -70 degC
While mercury freezes at -38 deg C
Mercury is/was better for human and other animal temps. High thermal coefficient of expansion mercury vs. alcohol = better resolution for small temperature changes in a medical application.
For higher temperatures alcohol will boil before mercury will.
An aquifer is the most expected feature that is likely to be reach after drilling through the unsaturated zone. Aquifer has tendency to transform ground water to the surface through voids. The depth of aquifer varies.
Answer:
At 0 °C (32 °F), the speed of sound is about 331 m/s (1,086 ft/s; 1,192 km/h; 740 mph; 643 kn). The speed of sound in an ideal gas depends only on its temperature and composition.
Translation of question
A ship is used to measure the depth of the sea using sound devices. A sound was fired at the bottom of the water and five seconds later there was a bounce. If the speed of sound in the water is 1500 m / s, then the depth of the water is
Answer:
3750 m
Explanation:
For sound to bounch back and be heard, this phenomenon is echo. Therefore, the distance traveled is 2d. Considering that speed is distance per unit time, expressed as s=d/t where d is distance, t is time and s is speed, in this case we say s=2d/t. Making d the subject of the formula then d=0.5st
Given 5 s as time and 1500 m/s as speed, we deduce that d=0.5*1500*5=3750 m
