Answer:

    p = 1.0076 10⁵ Pa

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure is given by the relation

         P = rho g h

In this case they indicate that the height of the column of mercury is h = 756 mm Hg

let's reduce the height to the SI system

          h = 756 mm (1m / 1000 mm)

          h = 0.756 m

let's calculate

        P = 13600 9.8 0.756

        p = 1.0076 10⁵ Pa

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson needs to escape from the fourth floor of a burning building (in a movie). He ties a rope around his wa
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Final Speed of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson = 15.812 m/s

Explanation:

Let's start out with finding the force acting downwards because of the mass of 'The Rock':

Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson: 118kg x 9.81m/s = 1157.58 N

Now the problem also states that the kinetic friction of the desk in this problem is 370 N

Since the pulley is smooth, the weight of Dwayne Johnson being transferred fully, and pulls the desk with a force of 1157.58 N. The frictional force of the desk is resisting this motion by a force of 370 N. Subtracting both forces we get the resultant force on the desk to be: 1157.58 - 370 = 787.58 N

Now lets use F = ma to calculate for the acceleration of the desk:

787.58 = 63 x acceleration

acceleration = 12.501 m/s

Finally, we can use the motion equation:

v^2 - u^2 = 2*a*s

here u = 0 m/s (since initial speed of the desk is 0)

a = 12.501 m/s

and s = 10 m

Solving this we get:

v^2 - 0 = 2 * 12.501 * 10

v = 15.812 m/s

Since the desk and Mr. Dwayne Johnson are connected by a taught rope, they are travelling at the same speed. Thus, Dwayne also travels at            15.812 m/s when the desk reaches the window.

Who showed that our universe is heliocentric—the planets of the solar system revolve around the sun? Johannes Kepler Isaac Newto
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

Nicolaus Copernicus was an astronomer from Poland, who was born on the 19th of February in the year 1473. He played a great role in the field of modern astronomy.

He was the person who contributed to the heliocentric theory. This theory describes the position of the sun in the middle of the universe, and all the planets move around the sun. This theory was initially not accepted, and after about a century it was widely accepted.

This theory describes the present-day motion of the planets around the sun in the solar system. This theory replaced the geocentric theory.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

A −4.00 μC charge sits in static equilibrium in the center of a conducting spherical shell that has an inner radius 3.13 cm and
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

(a). The charge on the outer surface is −2.43 μC.

(b). The charge on the inner surface is 4.00 μC.

(c). The electric field outside the shell is 3.39\times10^{7}\ N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge q₁ = -4.00 μC

Inner radius = 3.13 m

Outer radius = 4.13 cm

Net charge q₂ = -6.43 μC

We need to calculate the charge on the outer surface

Using formula of charge

q_{out}=q_{2}-q_{1}

q_{out}=-6.43-(-4.00)

q_{out}=-2.43\ \mu C

The charge on the inner surface is q.

q+(-2.43)=-6.43

q=-6.43+2.43= 4.00\ \mu C

We need to calculate the electric field outside the shell

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times6.43\times10^{-6}}{(4.13\times10^{-2})^2}

E=33927618.73\ N/C

E=3.39\times10^{7}\ N/C

Hence, (a). The charge on the outer surface is −2.43 μC.

(b). The charge on the inner surface is 4.00 μC.

(c). The electric field outside the shell is 3.39\times10^{7}\ N/C
