A mercury thermometer is used to measure the temperature of boiling water.Why?​

Physics

Rama09 [41]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

It has very high density, so a small bulb of a thermometer can contain much mercury. Mercury remains liquid state over a quite wide range of temperature because it freezes at 39°C and boils at 357°C.

Diamond has an index of refraction of 2.419. What is the critical angle for internal reflection inside a diamond that is in air?
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

C) 24.4°

Explanation:

let nd = 2.419 be the index of refraction of diamond and na  = 1.0 be the index of refraction of air  and ∅c be the critical angle.

according to Snell's Law:

sin(∅c) = na/nd

sin(∅c) = (1.0)/(2.419)

      ∅c = 24.4°

Read the scenario.
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

distance = 6 m

Explanation:

- Distance is a scalar quantity (so, only magnitude, no direction), and it is calculated as the scalar sum of all the distances travelled by an object during its motion, regardless of the direction. So, in this problem, the distance covered by the pinecone is

d = 4 m + 2 m = 6 m

- Displacement is a vector quantity (magnitude+direction), and its magnitude is calculate as the distance in a straight line between the final position and the initial position of the object. In this case, the final position is 2 m west and the initial position is 0 m, so the displacement of the pinecone is

d = 2 m west - 0 m = 2 m west

So, a scalar quantity from this scenario is

distance = 6 m

A 110 V power line is protected by a 15 A fuse. What is the maximum number of 400 W lamps that can be simultaneously operated in
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Total number of lamps will be 4            

Explanation:

We have given power of the lamp W = 400 watt

Potential difference across the lamp V=110 volt

We know that power is equal to P=VI

So 400=110\times I

I=3.636A

Total current is given 15 A

As it is given that lamps are connected in parallel so total current is the sum of current through each lamp

So number of lamp will be n=\frac{15}{3.636}=4.125

As the lamp can not be in negative

So total number of lamps will be 4
