If you dive underwater, you notice an uncomfortable pressure on your eardrums due to the increased pressure. The human eardrum h

as an area of about 70 mm217 * 10-5 m22, and it can sustain a force of about 7 N without rupturing. If your body had no means of balancing the extra pressure (which, in reality, it does), what would be the maximum depth you could dive without rupturing your eardrum

Answer:

h=10m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Area a=70 x 10^{-6}

Force F=7N

Generally the equation for Pressure is mathematically given by

Pressure = Force/Area

P=\frac{F}{A}

P=\frac{ 7}{(70 * 10^{-6})}

P= 1*10^{5} Pa

Generally the equation for Pressure is also mathematically given by

P=hpg

Therefore

h=\frac{P}{hg}

h=\frac{10000}{1000*9.8}

h=10m

Problem:
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Total energy is constant

Explanation:

The laws of thermodynamics state that thermal energy (heat) is always transferred from a hot body (higher temperature) to a cold body (lower temperature).

This is because in a hot body, the molecules on average have more kinetic energy (they move faster), so by colliding with the molecules of the cold body, they transfer part of their energy to them. So, the temperature of the hot body decreases, while the temperature of the cold body increases.

This process ends when the two bodies reach the same temperature: we talk about thermal equilibrium.

In this problem therefore, this means that the thermal energy is transferred from the hot water to the cold water.

However, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system is constant: therefore here, if we consider the hot water + cold water as an isolated system (no exchange of energy with the surroundings), this means that their total energy remains constant.

A yellow train of mass 100 kg is moving at 8 m/s towards an orange train of mass 200 kg traveling on the opposite direction on t
vladimir1956 [14]
Mass of yellow train, my = 100 kg

Initial Velocity of yellow train, = 8 m/s

mass of orange train = 200 kg

Initial Velocity of orange train = -1 m/s (since it moves opposite direction to the yellow train, we will put negative to show the opposite direction)

To calculate the initial momentum of both trains, we will use the principle of conservation of momentum which

The sum of initial momentum = the sum of final momentum


Since the question only wants the sum of initial momentum,

(100)(8) + (200)(-1) = 600 m/s

The average density of the body of a fish is 1080 kg/m3. To keep from sinking, the fish increases its volumeby inflating an inte
Dimas [21]

Answer:

f = 8 %

Explanation:

given,

density of body of fish = 1080 kg/m³

density of air = 1.2 Kg/m³

density of water = 1000 kg/m²

to protect the fish from sinking volume should increased by the factor f

density of fish + density of water x increase factor = volume changes in water                                                    

1080 +f x 1.2 =(1 + f ) x 1000                

1080 + f x 1.2 = 1000 + 1000 f      

998.8 f = 80                                  

f = 0.0800                            

f = 8 %                                        

the volume increase factor of fish will be equal to f = 8 %
