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 horizontal rectangular surface has dimensions 2.80 cm by 3.20 cm and is in a uniform magnetic field that is directed at an ang
koban [17]

Answer:

magnitude of the magnetic field 0.692 T

Explanation:

given data

rectangular dimensions = 2.80 cm by 3.20 cm

angle of 30.0°

produce a flux Ф = 3.10 × 10^{-4}  Wb

solution

we take here rectangular side a and b as a = 2.80 cm and b = 3.20 cm

and here angle between magnitude field and area will be ∅ = 90 - 30

∅ = 60°

and flux  is express as

flux Ф = \int \vec{B}.d\vec{A}   .................1

and Ф = BA cos∅    ............2

so B = \frac{\phi }{Acos\theta }    

and we know

A = ab

so

B = \frac{\phi }{abcos\theta }    ..............3

put here value

B =  \frac{3.10\times 10^{-4} }{2.80 \times 10^{-2}\times 3.20 \times 10^{-2}\times cos60}  

solve we get

B = 0.692 T

Which one of the following statements is true? Explain.
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

All the given option is false.

Explanation:

A)

This is not true for all the materials like composite because the Poisson ratio for composite material can be negative that is why positive tensile stress may produce positive lateral strain.

B)

This is not true for all the material because the Poisson ratio for some material can be positive  that is why positive tensile stress may produce negative lateral strain.

C)

The explanation is same as option A.

D)

This is not true for all the materials ,It is valid only up to elastic limit .After the elastic limit the strain and stress does not follow linear path.

E)

This is not true for all the materials because some materials like composite is having negative value of Young's modulus.

Therefore all the given option is false.

The horizontal motion of a launched projectile affects its vertical motion.
Talja [164]

The horizontal motion of a launched projectile affects its vertical motion is false

Answer: False

<u>Explanation: </u>

As the trajectory falls on a plane, all the components like displacement, velocity can be classified in two components termed as horizontal and vertical component.

In a projectile motion, the horizontal components of displacement and velocity remains constant and there is change only in the vertical component of displacement and velocity.

Both components are not dependent to each other. So, the horizontal motions of a launched projectile does not affect its vertical motion.
