Answer: Water cannot be used in thermometer because of its higher freezing point and lower boiling point than other liquids . If water is used in a thermometer , it will start phase change at 0oC and 100oC and will not measure temperature , out of this range .

Answer:

one of the reasons is that it wets the glass thermometer it also doesn't detect slight changes in temperature of the atmosphere it has a high boiling point I don't know the rest

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

1.19 m/s²

Explanation:

The frequency of the wave generated in the string in the first experiment is f = n/2l√T/μ were T = tension in string = mg were m = 1.30 kg weight = 1300 g , μ = mass per unit length of string = 1.01 g/m. l = length of string to pulley = l₀/2 were l₀ = lent of string. Since f is the second harmonic, n = 2, so

f = 2/2(l₀/2)√mg/μ = 2(√mg/μ)/l₀    (1)

Also, for the second experiment, the period of the wave in the string is T = 2π√l₀/g. From (1) l₀ = 2(√mg/μ)/f and from (2) l₀ = T²g/4π²

Equating (1) and (2) we ave

2(√mg/μ)/f = T²g/4π²

Making g subject of the formula

g = 2π√(2√(m/μ)/f)/T

The period T = 316 s/100 = 3.16 s

Substituting the other values into , we have

g = 2π√(2√(1300 g/1.01 g/m)/200 Hz)/3.16

g = 2π√(2 × 35.877/200 Hz)/3.16

g = 2π√(71.753/200 Hz)/3.16

g = 2π√(0.358)/3.16

g = 2π × 0.599/3.16

g = 1.19 m/s²

a 15-nC point charge is at the center of a thin spherical shell of radius 10cm, carrying -22nC of charge distributed uniformly o
Aleks [24]

Answer:

A) E = 278925.62 N/C with direction; radially out.

B) E = 43048.47 N/C with direction radially out.

C) E = -3214.29 N/C with direction radially in.

Explanation:

From Gauss' Law, the Electric field for any spherically symmetric charge or charge distribution is the same as the point charge formula. Thus;

E = kQ/r²

where;

Q is the net charge within the distance r.

We are given the charge Q = 15-nC and

spherical shell of radius 10cm

A) The distance r = 2.2 cm = 0.022 m is between the surface and the point charge, so only the point charge lies within this distance and Q = 15 nC = 15 x 10^(-9) C

While k is coulombs constant with a value of 9 × 10^(9) N.m²/C²

E = ((9 x 10^(9) × (15 x 10^(-9)))/(0.022)²

E = 278925.62 N/C

This will be radially out ,since the net charge is positive.

B) The distance r = 5.6 cm = 0.056 m is between the surface and the point charge, so only the point charge lies within this distance and Q = 15 nC = 15 x 10^(-9) C

While k is coulombs constant with a value of 9 × 10^(9) N.m²/C²

E = ((9 x 10^(9) × (15 x 10^(-9)))/(0.056)²

E = 43048.47 N/C

This will be radially out ,since the net charge is positive.

C) The distance r = 14 cm = 0.14 m is outside the sphere so the "net" charge within this distance is due to both given charges. Thus;

Q = 15 nC - 22 nC

Q = -7 nC = -7 x 10^(-9) C

and;

E = (9 x 10^(9)*(-7 x 10^(-9))/(0.14)²

E = -3214.29 N/C

This will be radially in, since the net charge is negative. You can indicate this with a negative answer.

Explain how a step-down transformer makes electricity safe for use in homes.
siniylev [52]

Answer:

it lowers the voltage in homes

Explanation:

this is due to safety reasons as a human cant survive power line voltages which are between 150k and 760k and if you plugged anything short of a piece of 1 inch thick wire not counting insulation it would immediately start smoking and burn the cable.

IF THERE ARE ONLY 118 ELEMENTS, HOW DO YOU
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Although there are only 118 elements that have been discovered and entered in the Periodic Table, there is an almost infinite multiplicity of things, materials, resources and other objects in the universe.

This is so because each of these elements can be combined with the others, varying its proportion and the inclusion of different elements, forming different things according to the proportion in which each element has been used.
