Answer:

3.33 m

Explanation:

Pressure is the distributed force applied to the surface of an object per unit area. The force is applied perpendicular to the surface of the object. The SI unit of pressure is N/m² or Pa.

Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure that a fluid exerts at a point due to the force of gravity.

The relationship between  pressure on the bottom of the container,  atmospheric pressure and the pressure due to the depth of the fluid is given by:

P_{bottom}-P_{atm}=P_{depth}\\\\where\ P_{bottom}=pressure\ at\ the \ fluid\ bottom,\ P_{atm}=atmospheric\ pressure\\P_{depth}=pressure\ due\ to\ fluid\ depth=\rho gh. \ Hence:\\\\P_{bottom}-P_{atm}=\rho gh\\\\Given \ that\ P_{bottom}=115\ kPa=115*10^3\ Pa, let\ us\ assume\ P_{atm}=101\ kPa=101*10^3\ Pa,\rho=420\ kg/m^3,g=acceleration\ due\ to \ gravity=10\ m/s^2.\\\\Therefore:\\\\115*10^3-101*10^3=420*10*h\\\\14*10^3=4200h\\\\h=3.33\ m\\\\

A force of 40 N is required to hold a spring that has been stretched from its natural length of 10 cm to a length of 15 cm. How
Sati [7]

0.36 J of work is done in stretching the spring from 15 cm to 18 cm.

To find the correct answer, we need to know about the work done to strech a string.

<h3>What is the work required to strech a string?</h3>
  • Mathematically, the work done to strech a string is given as 1/2 ×K×x².
  • K is the spring constant.
<h3>What will be the spring constant, if 40N force is required to hold a 10 cm to 15 cm streched spring?</h3>
  • The force experienced by a streched spring is given as Kx. x is the length of the spring streched from its natural length.
  • Then K = Force / x.
  • Here x = 15 - 10 = 5 cm = 0.05 m
  • K = 40/0.05 = 800N/m.
<h3>What will be the work required to strech that spring from 15 cm to 18 cm?</h3>
  • Work done = 1/2×k×x²
  • Here x= 18-15=3cm or 0.03 m
  • So, W= 1/2×800×0.03² = 0.36 J.

Thus, we can conclude that the work done is 0.36 J.

A 35 g steel ball is held by a ceiling-mounted electromagnet 3.8 m above the floor. A compressed-air cannon sits on the floor, 4
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let v is the launch speed of the plastic ball and the angle of projection is θ.

So, in horizontal direction

v Cosθ x t = 4.8 .... (1)

In th evertical direction

1.4 = v Sin θ x t - 0.5 gt²     .... (2)

As , v Sin θ x t = 3.8      .... (3) , put in equation (2)

1.4 = 3.8 - 4.9 t²

t = 0.7 s

Put in (1) and (3)

v Cosθ x 0.7  = 4.8

v Cosθ = 6.86

and v Sinθ x 0.7 = 3.8

v Sinθ = 5.43

Now

v^{2}\left ( Sin^{2}\theta +Cos^{2}\theta  \right )=5.43^{2}+6.86^{2}

v = 8.75 m/s

Trava [24]
It is called polarizability. A dipole moment is needed for the molecule or atom due to the distortion of the electron cloud. A dipole is a pair of electrical charges that have opposite signs and during a dipole moment two charges separate.
