Test:
Performing a Litmus Test
Result:
Litmus paper gives the user a general indication of acidity or alkalinity as it correlates to the shade of red or blue that the paper turns.
- To test the pH of a substance, dip a strip of litmus paper into the solution or use a dropper or pipette to drip a small amount of solution onto the litmus paper.
- Blue litmus paper can indicate an acid with a pH between 4 and 5 or lower.
- Red litmus paper can show a base with a pH greater than 8.
- If a solution has a pH between 5 and 8, it will show little color change on the litmus paper.
- A base tested with blue litmus paper will not show any color change, nor will an acid tested with red litmus paper register a change in color.
Answer:
a) P =392.4[Pa]; b) F = 706.32[N]
Explanation:
With the input data of the problem we can calculate the area of the tank base
L = length = 10[m]
W = width = 18[cm] = 0.18[m]
A = W * L = 0.18*10
A = 1.8[m^2]
a)
Pressure can be calculated by knowing the density of the water and the height of the water column within the tank which is equal to h:
P = density * g *h
where:
density = 1000[kg/m^3]
g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]
h = heigth = 4[cm] = 0.04[m]
P = 1000*9.81*0.04
P = 392.4[Pa]
The force can be easily calculated knowing the relationship between pressure and force:
P = F/A
F = P*A
F = 392.4*1.8
F = 706.32[N]
current in 3ohm resistor is 0.9
