A box-shaped aquarium has horizontal dimensions 0.5 m by 1 m, and depth 0.5 m, and is filled two-thirds of the way to the surfac

e. As it is being transported downwards in an elevator, someone accidentally presses the emergency stop button, such that the elevator comes to rest with a deceleration of magnitude 2g, where the gravitational acceleration g = 9.81 m/s2 . Calculate the pressure difference between the bottom and the surface of the tank.

Answer:

3270 N/m^2

Explanation:

we can calculate the pressure difference between the bottom and surface of the tank by applying the equation for the net vertical pressure

Py = - Ph ( g ± a )

for a downward movement

Py = - Ph ( g - a )  ------ ( 1 )

From the above data given will  be

p = 1000 kg/m^3, h = 2/3 * 0.5 = 0.33 m , a =2g , g = 9.81

input values into equation 1  becomes

Py =  -Ph ( g - 2g ) = Phg ------ ( 3 )

Py = 1000 * 0.33 * 9.81

    = 3270 N/m^2

If the old radiator is replaced with a new one that has longer tubes made of the same material and same thickness as those in th
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer: hello some parts of your question is missing attached below is the missing information

The radiator of a car is a type of heat exchanger. Hot fluid coming from the car engine, called the coolant, flows through aluminum radiator tubes of thickness d that release heat to the outside air by conduction. The average temperature gradient between the coolant and the outside air is about 130 K/mm . The term ΔT/d  is called the temperature gradient which is the temperature difference ΔT between coolant inside and the air outside per unit thickness of tube

answer : Total surface area = 3/2 * area of old radiator

Explanation:

we will use this relation

K = \frac{Qd }{A* change in T }

change in T =  ΔT  

therefore New Area  ( A ) = 3/2 * area of old radiator

Given that the thermal conductivity is the same in the new and old radiators

How to draw the output voltage waveform rectifier
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Half-wave rectifier converts an AC signal into a DC signal. It's called a half-wave because it only rectify the positive part of an AC signal.

AC Signal = An electrical signal that alternates between positive and negative voltage.

DC Signal = An electrical signal that only has positive voltage.

Rectify = A fancy word for converting something.

Adding a capacitor helps the positive part of the signal stay on longer. This work because the capacitor stores energy kinda like a battery. During the negative part of the AC signal, the energy stored in the capacitor will be drained and used, then the cycle repeats.

The load resistor is just there to prevent a short circuit from happening.

As the driver of the red SUV, what are your options for navigating this roundabout?
IgorC [24]

Your options for navigating this roundabout would include driving in a counter-clockwise direction and then making your exit to the right lane.

<h3>What is a roundabout? </h3>

A roundabout is a circular intersection that make junctions or intersections of roads safer, because it is designed and developed to physically direct drivers and pedestrians to move in a counter-clockwise direction.

In this scenario, your options for navigating this roundabout as the driver of the red SUV would include driving in a counter-clockwise direction and then making your exit to the right lane.
