Answer: small cars can stop and go fast big trucks can not
Explanation:
Answer:
Given a tube of diameter d, = 3cm = 0.03m
Pressure Balance
Mercury pressure at the tube bottom Pₓ = Pa + ρgh
where
Pa = Atmospheric pressure = 101kpa
ρ = Density of mercury = 13,546kg/m3
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height of the tube?
Given
Bottom pressure in excess of the atmospheric pressure = 48kPa = Pₓ - Pa
Therefore, 48kPa = ρgh
h = 48(kN/m2)/ρg
h = 48,000kgms⁻²m⁻²/(13546kgm⁻³ x 9.81ms⁻²)
h = 0.36m
the tube is 36cm tall
I believe it is D because the more weight the more total speed it will end with
