Korolek [52]

Answer:

$\Delta P = 98.07\,Pa$

Explanation:

The difference between top and bottom surfaces is computed by the following hydrostatic equivalence:

$\Delta P = \rho_{w}\cdot g \cdot \Delta h$

$\Delta P = \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (0.01\,m)$

$\Delta P = 98.07\,Pa$

To measure the height of a building without a ruler or tape measure, an engineer drops a rock off the top of the building and fi

serg [7]

The relevant equation we can use in this problem is:

h = v0 t + 0.5 g t^2

where h is height, v0 is initial velocity, t is time, g is gravity

Since it was stated that the rock was drop, so it was free fall and v0 = 0, therefore:

h = 0 + 0.5 * 9.81 m/s^2 * (4.9 s)^2

Define and describe the following terms: amplitude, wavelength, frequency, period, tension.

maw [93]

Answer:

Amplitude—distance between the resting position and the maximum displacement of the wave

Frequency—number of waves passing by a specific point per second

Period—time it takes for one wave cycle to complete

wavelength λ - the distance between adjacent identical parts of a wave, parallel to the direction of propagation.

Tension - described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar one-dimensional continuous object, or by each end of a rod, truss member, or similar three-dimensional object
