Why is mercury not suitable as the liquid in the U-tube? (the relationship between density of the liquid and the pressure in the

liquid)​
Physics

Mercury Is more suitable than water cause it is denser than water.

Relation between density and pressure

Pressure = force/area

Replace force by mass * acceleration
Pressure = mass * acceleration/ area

We can replace mass by density * volume since density = mass/ volume
Pressure = density * volume * acceleration/ area

Volume is length^3 whereas area is length ^2. So volume / area = length

Pressure = density * length * acceleration

Gravity is form of acceleration so

Pressure = density * length * gravity
Length can be height or depth

Finally pressure = density * height * gravity

P = ρ g h => pressure of liquid

Answer:

Pressure, P = 32666.66 Pa

Explanation:

It is given that,

Surface area of foot of Bimaba is 150 cm² or 0.015 m².

Her weight is 50 kg

We need to find the pressure does she exert on the ground, as she stands on  her one foot. The force acting per unit area is called pressure. It can be given by :

P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\\P=\dfrac{mg}{A}\\\\P=\dfrac{50\times 9.8}{0.015}\\\\P=32666.66\ Pa

So, the pressure is 32666.66 Pa.

An object traveling at 1.5 rad
Veronika [31]

The object's final velocity, given the data is 10.5 rad/s

<h3>What is acceleration? </h3>

This is defined as the rate of change of velocity which time. It is expressed as

a = (v – u) / t

Where

  • a is the acceleration
  • v is the final velocity
  • u is the initial velocity
  • t is the time

<h3>How to determine the final velocity</h3>

The following data were obtained from the question

  • Initial velocity (u) = 1.5 rad/s
  • Acceleration (a) = 0.75 rad/s²
  • Time (t) = 12 s
  • Final velocity (v) = ?

The final velocity can be obtained as follow:

a = (v – u) / t

0.75 = (v – 1.5) / 12

Cross multiply

v – 1.5 = 0.75 × 12

v – 1.5 = 9

Collect like terms

v = 9 + 1.5

v = 10.5 rad/s

Thus, the final velocity of the object is 10.5 rad/s

A bucket filled with water has a mass of 54 kg and is hanging from a rope that is wound around a 0.050 m radius stationary cylin
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder is 26.46 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of bucket = 54 kg

Radius = 0.050 m

We need to calculate the magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder

Using formula of torque

\tau=F\times r

\tau=mg\times r

Where, m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

r = radius

Put the value into the formula

\tau=54\times9.8\times0.050

\tau=26.46\ N-m

Hence, The magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder is 26.46 N-m.
