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

Physics
1 answer:
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.

A 2500-N net force acting on a 880-kg car accelerates it at a rate of ______ m/s/s
Bond [772]

Answer:

a = 2.84 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force, F = 2500 N

Mass of the car, m = 880 kg

We need to find the acceleration of the car. Net force is given by :

F = ma

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{2500\ N}{880\ m/s^2}\\\\a=2.84\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the car is 2.84 m/s².

Plz help me im really confused. The questions are in the second pic and the vehicles are in the first the fetures are in the las
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

1.ima say car 2 is safer than car 1.

2.airbags: airbags make it safer because if you get in a reck they will protect you againsed more harm then if you didnt have airbags.

breaking distance: it takes less distance to stop so if there was a reck up the streat you could stop and turn around so you wouldnt get into that wreck.

accrleration: it can make you go faster so incase someoe behind you is speading you could speadup and turn into a parking lot and you wouldent get hurt.

3. car 2 is safer because it has breaking distance and it can stop you way before you get into a wreck than car 1 that doesnt have that ability

Explanation: ima award myself brainliest. Dont ask why i just answerd my own question on here. Yay

Two bicycle tires are set rolling with the same initial speed of 3.30 m/s along a long, straight road, and the distance each tra
vredina [299]

Answer:

At low pressure- \mu_{k}=0.02315

At high pressure- \mu_{k}=0.00445

Explanation:

Initial speed, V_{i}=3.3 m/s

Final speed, V_{f}=3.3/2= 1.65 m/s

Net horizontal force due to rolling friction F_{net}=\mu_{k} mg where m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, \mu_{k} is coefficient of rolling friction

From kinematic relation, V_{f}^{2}- V_{i}^{2}=2ad

For each tire,

V_{f}^{2}- V_{i}^{2}=2\mu_{k}gd

Making \mu_{k} the subject

\mu_{k}=\frac {V_{f}^{2}- V_{i}^{2}}{2gd}

Under low pressure of 40 Psi, d=18 m

\mu_{k}=\frac {1.65^{2}- 3.3^{2}}{2*9.8*18}=-0.02315

Therefore, \mu_{k}=0.02315

At a pressure of 105 Psi, d=93.7

\mu_{k}=\frac {1.65^{2}- 3.3^{2}}{2*9.8*93.7}=-0.00445

Therefore, \mu_{k}=0.00445

Explain why the types of technology valued can vary.
Elan Coil [88]
Over time, the types of technology can vary and be improved upon so that more advanced techniques become more valued. This could be the situation with mining whereby back in the 1500's in underground mines the rock was broken by fire setting ie lighting a fire below the rock face to heat up the rock and then throwing cold water on it to crack it, so that it could be dug by hand. With the advent of explosives, this all changed so that the rock could be blasted. The increase in advance rates for an underground heading have thus gone from 5-20 feet per month to up to 300meters (984 ft) per month for a 24/7 mining operation, which is a huge improvement.
