A U-tube with a cross-sectional area of 1.00 cm2 is open to the atmosphere at both ends. Water is poured into the tube until the

water rises part-way along the straight sides, and then 5.00 cm3 of oil is poured into one end. As a result, the top surface of the oil ends up 0.550 cm higher than the water surface on the other side of the U. What is the density of the oil

Answer:

0.89 g/cm^3 = 890 kg/m^3

Explanation:

Cross sectional area of U-tube ( A ) = 1.00 cm^2

volume of oil ( V )  = 5.00 cm^3

change between top surface = 0.550 cm

height of oil = 5 cm  ( volume / area )

height of water = 5 - 0.550 = 4.45 cm

pressure at the oil-water junction = Pressure on the second side of the U-tube at same level

Po * g * Hoil = Pw * g * Hwater

Po * 5 = 1 * 4.45

∴ Density of oil ( Po ) = 4.45 / 5  g/cm^3 = 0.89 g/cm^3

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP BEFORE MY TEACHER AND MY MOM KILLES ME PLEASE ASAP
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

As you know, the denser objects have more weight per unit of volume, this will mean that the force that pulls down these objects is a bit larger.

This will mean that the denser objects will always go to the bottom.

This clearly implies that the red liquid, the one with one of the smaller densities, can not be at the bottom.

There are some cases where a liquid with a small density may become a lot denser as the temperature or pressure changes, and in a case like that, we could see the red liquid at the bottom, but for this case, there is no mention of changes in the temperature nor in the pressure, so this can be discarded.

The only thing that makes sense is that the red part at the bottom is the base of the tube, and has nothing to do with the red liquid.

Use the fact that 1inch=2.54cm and convert 52 inches into the equivalent length in centimeters.
Lelu [443]

Answer:

To convert inches to centimeters, use an easy formula and multiply the length by the conversion ratio.

Since one inch is equal to 2.54 centimeters, this is the inches to cm formula to conver

If a wave has a frequency of 74 Hz and a speed of 444 m/s, what is the wave's wavelength?
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

6 m

Explanation:

velocity = wavelength x frequency

444 m/s = wavelength x 74 Hz

444 m/s / 74 Hz = wavelength

wavelength = 6m
