A gauge is attached to a pressurized nitrogen tank reads a gauge pressure of 28 in of mercury. If atmospheric pressure is 14.4 p

sia, what is the absolute pressure in the tank

Answer:

The absolute pressure is 28.15 psi.

Explanation:

Gauge pressure = 28 inch of Mercury

Absolute pressure, Po = 14.4 psi

The absolute pressure is the sum of the gauge pressure and the absolute pressure.  

gauge pressure = 28 inch = 0.7112 m of Mercury

= 0.7112 x 13.6 x 1000 x 9.8 = 94788.736 Pa

= 13.75 psi

The absolute pressure is

P = 14.4 + 13.75 = 28.15 psi

B. Assuming the acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2, what is the instantaneous velocity of the
goblinko [34]

We have that the instantaneous velocity of the shuttlecock when it hits the ground is

V_{int}=\sqrt{U^2+19.6H}

From the question we are told

Assuming the acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2, what is the instantaneous velocity of the

shuttlecock when it hits the ground? Show your work below.

Generally the equation for acceleration  is mathematically given as

a=v \frac{dv}{dx}\\\\\Therefore\\\\\2ah=v^2-u^2

Where

acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2,

Hence,

V^2-U^2=2(-9.81)*-H

Therefore

V_{int}=\sqrt{U^2+19.6H}

In which situation would an object weigh the LEAST? (assume all the objects have the same mass)
inessss [21]

Answer:

An object on the moon would weigh the LEAST among these. So correct answer is B.

Explanation:

  • Weight of an object on any place is given by:

W = Mass * Acceleration due to gravity(g)

  • It means when masses of different objects those are in different places are same, the weight of  those objects depends upon the 'g' of that particular place.
  • As we know, acceleration due to gravity on surface of moon (g') is 6 times weaker than the acceleration on surface of earth (g), which is due to the large M/R^2 of the earth than the moon.

i.e. g' = g/6 so W' = W/6

  • And in the space between the two, the object is weightless.

In a fluorescent tube of diameter 4.8 cm , 2.7 × 1018 electrons (with a charge of −e) and 2.4 × 1018 positive ions (with a charg
Lesechka [4]

Answer: 0.817A

Explanation:

Assuming , that one coulomb per second of negative charge alone flow through a conductor and no positive charges flow. I.e Q=It

It means a current of one A flow in the opposite direction.

This is similar to one coulomb per second of positive charge flowing through and there is no negative charge,

In addition, the one coulomb per second of positive charge flows. This is flowing in the current direction of the previous one. Then, the total current is 2 A. Since 2 coulomb of positive charges flow through one due to real positive charge and another due to the negative charge flowing in opposite direction.The charges cannot cancel each other, because even before the current flow the conductor was neutral.

According to this, the current in the given problem is

[2.7 + 2.4] x 10 ^ 18 * 1.602 x 10^ [-19] C/s

= 0.817 A

How much pressure is exerted by an 100n man with a shoe area of O.05cm square<br><br>​
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Pressure = 20 MPa

Explanation:

Given:

Force acting on the shoe is, F=100\ N

Area of shoe on which the force acts is, A= 0.05\ cm^2

Now, first we convert the area into its standard unit of m².

We have the conversion factor as:

1 cm² = 10^{-4}\ m^2

Therefore, the area of shoe in square meters is given as:

A=0.05\times 10^{-4}\ m^2\\A=5\times 10^{-6}\ m^2

Now, pressure on the shoe is given as:

P=\frac{Force}{Area}\\P=\frac{F}{A}

Plug in 100 N for 'F', 5\times 10^{-6} for 'A' and solve for 'P'. This gives,

P=\frac{100\ N}{5\times 10^{-6}\ m^2}\\P=20\times 10^{6}\ N/m^2

Now, we know that,

10^{6}\ N/m^2=1\ MPa\\\therefore 20\times 10^{6}\ N/m^2=20\times 1\ MPa=20\ MPa

Therefore, the pressure acting on the shoe is 20 MPa.
