List out some use of atmospheric pressure

2 answers:

7 0

The atmospheric air pressure acts in isosteric manner. That is air pressure is exerted in every direction on the object.

How does it help….?

1 - We suck out air in the straw so that air pressure within the straw drops and becomes less than the atmospheric air pressure. The liquid rises in the straw reaches our mouth.

2 - Domestic Vacuum cleaners suck in air and create low pressure area, around the point of suction. The surrounding air is still at the atmospheric air pressure. The atmospheric air pressure pushes in more air to the low pressure area. But the suction continues. This results in an air current formation. The air current carries dust particles along with. The dust particles are trapped in the trash bags and the air is let out.

3 - Siphons work because of air pressure.

4 - The injection syringes utilise atmospheric air pressure. In the first step the piston is drawn in. This creates low pressure within the syringe. The atmospheric air rushes in. The needle is inserted through the cap and the air is pushed in to the bottle. It creates high pressure area in the bottle. The piston is gradually withdrawn it creates low pressure area in the syringe. Medicine in the bottle is at higher pressure so it flows in through the needle into the syringe.

5 - Automobile servicing - uses air pressure to create strong water current to wash away stubborn sticky dust.

6 - Air Brakes - Air pressure is used to activate brakes in trains.

Answer:

<h2>1)Straw : When a man sucks up the fluid from straw the pressure inside is moderately low and accordingly atmospheric pressure outside powers up the fluid into straw. 2)Vacuum cleaner : When a vacuum cleaner is exchanged on, the pressure inside tumble off because of air inside.</h2>

The speed of a wave changes depending on the temperature of the medium. What do you think is the reason for this?

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: Because of the different wave speed from light and sound. Explanation: There is a major difference between the speed wave of light and sound, light travels at 186, 282 miles per second, and sound can travel at different speeds and its significantly slower so it is easier to measure it

An object is 10 cm from thé mirror, its height is 1 cm and thé focal length is 5 cm. What is thé distance from thé mirror? S1= _

Viefleur [7K]

Note: I assume the mirror is concave, so that its focal length is positive (it is not specified in the text)

1a) We can use the mirror equation to find the distance of the image from the mirror:
$\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{p}+ \frac{1}{q}$
where
$f=5 cm$ is the focal length
$p=10 cm$ is the distance of the object from the mirror
$q$ is the distance of the image from the mirror.

Rearranging the equation, we find
$\frac{1}{q}= \frac{1}{f}- \frac{1}{p}= \frac{1}{5}- \frac{1}{10}= \frac{1}{10 cm}$
so, the distance of the image from the mirror is $q=10 cm$ .

1b) The image height is given by the magnification equation:
$\frac{h_i}{h_o}=- \frac{p}{q}$
where $h_i$ is the heigth of the image and $h_o=1 cm$ is the height of the object. By rearranging the equation and using p and q, we find
$h_i=-h_o \frac{p}{q}=-(1 cm) \frac{10 cm}{10 cm}=-1 cm$
and the negative sign means the image is inverted.

2) As before, we can find the distance of the image from the mirror by using the mirror equation:
$\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{p}+ \frac{1}{q}$
Rearranging it, we find
$\frac{1}{q}= \frac{1}{f}- \frac{1}{p}= \frac{1}{2}- \frac{1}{10}= \frac{4}{10 cm}$
so, the distance of the image from the mirror is
$q= \frac{10}{4}cm= 2.5 cm$

3) As before, we find the distance of the image from the mirror by using the mirror equation:
$\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{p}+ \frac{1}{q}$
Rearranging it, we find
$\frac{1}{q}= \frac{1}{f}- \frac{1}{p}= \frac{1}{2}- \frac{1}{10}= \frac{4}{10 cm}$
so, the distance of the image from the mirror is
$q= \frac{10}{4}cm= 2.5 cm$

And now we can use the magnification equation to find the image height:
$\frac{h_i}{h_o}=- \frac{p}{q}$
Rearranging it, we find
$h_i=-h_o \frac{p}{q}=-(3cm) \frac{10 cm}{2.5 cm}=-12 cm$
and the negative sign means the image is inverted.

What happens at night- describing air circulation

mash [69]

Answer:

The environment is warmed by the light throughout the day, such that the temperature increases. The weather is decreasing and the temperature decreases in the night as the sun falls. There was a misunderstanding. Thanks to the density, the atmosphere becomes densest on the earth. The air becomes colder and colder when you move up.

Explanation:

Answer is above

A(n) 12500 lb railroad car traveling at 7.8 ft/s couples with a stationary car of 7430 lb. The acceleration of gravity is 32 ft/

navik [9.2K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum. That is, the final momentum must be the same final momentum. And in each state, the momentum will be the sum of the product between the mass and the velocity of each object, then

$\text{Initial Momentum} = \text{Final Momentum}$
