Explain how a clinical thermometer should be sterilized and why​

Physics
1 answer:
Kisachek [45]2 years ago

Answer:

Explain why it is not advisable to sterilise a clinical thermometer on boiling water at normal atmospheric temperature. A clinical thermometer has small temperature range. The glass will crack/burst due to excessive pressure created by expansion of mercury.

A car's velocity as a function of time is given by vx(t)=α+βt2, where α=3.00m/s and β=0.100m/s3.
Mice21 [21]

1) Analyze the equation

Vₓ = α + β t²

Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 t²

That is a quadratic equation, so the graph is a parabola.

2) Therefore, take into account that the main points to draw a parabola are:

i) vertex

ii) concavity

iii) y-intercepts

iv) x - intercepts

Also, for all graphs you need the domain and the range.

3) Find the y-intercept (t = 0)

t = 0 ⇒ Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (0)² = 3.00

4) Find the x-intercepts (Vₓ = 0)

Vₓ = 0 ⇒ 0 = 3.00 + 0.100 t²

⇒ t² = - 3.00 / 0.100 = -30.0. Since t² cannot be negative, there is not x-intercepts.

5) Concavity

Since, the coefficient of t² is positive, the parabola open upwards.

6) Vertex

It is the local minimum of the equation. You can find it by the first derivative

Vₓ' = 2×0.100 t = 0 ⇒ t = 0

Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (0)² = 3.00 m/s

⇒ vertex = (0,3.00)

7) The domain is given t ∈ [0,5.00]

8) You can also build a table with several points in the domain

t =0; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (0)² = 0

t = 1; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (1)² = 3.10

t = 2; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (2)² = 3.40

t = 3; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (3)² = 3.90

t = 4; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (4)² = 4.60

t = 5; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (5)² = 5.50

9) Range: Vₓ ∈ [ 3.00, 5.50]

10) All that information permits you to put several points in a coordinate sysment and sketch the same graph as the shown in the figure attached.
