What is the gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet of a 0.1 cm diameter? Assume that air is surrounding this droplet a

Vikki [24]

Answer:

The gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet is 416 Pa

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the honey droplet, D = 0.1 cm

radius of the honey droplet, R = 0.05 cm = 0.0005 m

surface tension of honey, γ = 0.052 N/m

Apply Laplace's law for a spherical membrane with two surfaces

Gauge pressure = P₁ - P₀ = 2 (2γ / r)

Where;

P₀ is the atmospheric pressure

Gauge pressure = 4γ / r

Gauge pressure = 4 (0.052) / (0.0005)

Gauge pressure = 416 Pa

Therefore, the gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet is 416 Pa

A solenoid 25.0 cmcm long and with a cross-sectional area of 0.550 cm^2 contains 460 turns of wire and carries a current of 90.0

ankoles [38]

Answer:

a. B = 0.20T

b. u = 17230.6 J/m³

c. E = 0.236J

d. L = 5.84*10^-5 H

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate the magnetic field in the solenoid you use the following formula:

$B=\frac{\mu_o n i}{L}$ (1)

μo: magnetic permeability of vacuum = 4π*10^-7 T/A

n: turns of the solenoid = 460

L: length of the solenoid = 25.0cm = 0.25m

i: current = 90.0A

You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (1):

$B=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(460)(90.0A)}{0.25m}=0.20T$

The magnetic field in the solenoid is 0.20T

b. The magnetic permeability of air is approximately equal to the magnetic permeability of vacuum. To calculate the energy density in the solenoid you use:

$u=\frac{B^2}{2\mu_o}=\frac{(0.20T)^2}{2(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)}=17230.6\frac{J}{m^3}$

The energy density is 17230.6 J/m³

c. The total energy contained in the solenoid is:

$E=uV$ (2)

V is the volume of the solenoid and is calculated by assuming the solenoid as a perfect cylinder:

$V=AL$

A: cross-sectional area of the solenoid = 0.550 cm^2 = 5.5*10^-5m^2

$V=(5.5*10^{-5}m^2)(0.25m)=1.375*10^{-5}m^3$

Then, the energy contained in the solenoid is:

$E=(17230.6J/m^3)(1.375*10^{-5}m^3)=0.236J$

The energy contained is 0.236J

d. The inductance of the solenoid is calculated as follow:

$L=\frac{\mu_o N^2 A}{L}=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(460)^2(5.5*10^{-5}m^2)}{0.25m}\\\\L=5.84*10^{-5}H$

The inductance of the solenoid is 5.84*10^-5 H

A snail and an inchworm are in a race. Their race track heads north for a distance of 2 m. If the inchworm comes to the end of t

olga2289 [7]

Well the basic equation for velocity is v=d/t where d is distance and t is time. So v=2m/50s and the answer is v=0.04meter/second.

Why is it important to understand forces?

yanalaym [24]

If people never learned forces, there would be a major gap in the world and how it works, let alone in physics...
as much as you don't wanna admit it, force is everywhere and you see it if not use it EVERY day in your life, something as simple as driving a car down the street or too school, your using force of your wheels to move your car, which is moving you
