Answer:

Answer

Advantages of alcohol over Mercury

(a) Freezing point of alcohol is −117∘

C and hence can record very low temperature For example in Arctic and Antarctic regions temperature may fall below −80∘

C which cannot be measured by mercury thermometer because mercury freezes at−39 ∘ C

(b) The expansion of alcohol per degree rise in temperature is much more around six times more then that of mercury and hence is more sensitive

(c) it can be coloured brightly by adding some dye in it and hence is easily detectable

If a substance has a density of 2.7g/cm3 and a mass of 86.4g, what is its volume?
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

32cm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

  Density of substance  = 2.7g/cm³

   Mass of substance  = 86.4g

Unknown:

Volume of substance  = ?

Solution:

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance.

    Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}

Since the unknown is volume we solve for it;

   mass  = density x volume

   86.4 = 2.7 x volume

    volume  = \frac{86.4}{2.7}   = 32cm³

Well it is definitely answer B because when light is on for a long time it heats up a lot.the thermometer obviously went up which means the light bulb had more energy and was hotter than the start of it

A lightning bolt transfers 6.0 coulombs of charge from a cloud to the ground in 2.0 x 10-3 second. what is the average current d
AlladinOne [14]
The current is defined as the amount of charge transferred through a certain point in a certain time interval:
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}
where
I is the current
Q is the charge
\Delta t is the time interval

For the lightning bolt in our problem, Q=6.0 C and \Delta t= 2.0 \cdot 10^{-3}s, so the average current during the event is
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t} = \frac{6.0 C}{2.0 \cdot 10^{-3} s}=3000 A

A thin taut string is fixed at both ends and stretched along the horizontal x-axis with its left end at x = 0. It is vibrating i
Fofino [41]

Answer:

(a) Wavelength is 0.436 m

(b) Length is 0.872 m

(c) 11.518 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

The eqn of the displacement is given by:

y(x, t) = (1.22 cm)sin[14.4 m^{- 1}x]cos[(166\ rad/s)t]          (1)

n = 4

Now,

We know the standard eqn is given by:

y = AsinKxcos\omega t           (2)

Now, on comparing eqn (1) and (2):

A = 1.22 cm

K = 14.4 m^{- 1}

\omega = 166\ rad/s

where

A = Amplitude

K = Propagation constant

\omega = angular velocity

Now, to calculate the string's wavelength,

(a) K = \frac{2\pi}{\lambda}

where

K = propagation vector

\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{K}

\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{14.4} = 0.436\ m

(b) The length of the string is given by:

l = \frac{n\lambda}{2}

l = \frac{4\times 0.436}{2} = 0.872\ m

(c)  Now, we first find the frequency of the wave:

\omega = 2\pi f

f = \frac{\omega}{2\pi}

f = \frac{2\pi}{166} = 26.42\ Hz

Now,

Speed of the wave is given by:

v = f\lambda

v = 26.419\times 0.436 = 11.518\ m/s
