Answer:

The distance used to calculate the pressure of atmosphere is 75 cm.

Explanation:

Mercury barometer is used to find the pressure of the atmosphere where it is placed.
As shown in the figure, the barometer has an inverted tube where mercury has risen by 75 cm. This height is taken into count to measure the atmospheric pressure.
At the place with high pressure the mercury in the inverted tube will go very high and vice versa.
Hence to find the pressure we must note down the height of mercury that has risen the inverted tube.

Suppose that you are holding a pencil balanced on its point. If you release the pencil and it begins to fall, what will be the a

Naily [24]

Answer:

The angular acceleration of the pencil α = 17 rad·s⁻²

Explanation:

Using Newton's second angular law or torque to find angular acceleration, we get the following expressions:

τ = I α (1)

W r = I α (2)

The weight is that the pencil has is,

sin 10 = r / (L/2)

r = L/2(sin(10))

The shape of the pencil can be approximated to be a cylinder that rotates on one end and therefore its moment of inertia will be:

I = 1/3 M L²

Thus,

mg(L / 2)sin(10) = (1/3 m L²)(α)

α(f) = 3/2(g) / Lsin(10)

α = 3/2(9.8) / 0.150sin(10)

α = 17 rad·s⁻²

Therefore, the angular acceleration of the pencil is 17 rad·s⁻²

When tightening a bolt, you push perpendicularly on a wrench with a force of 165 N at a distance of 0.140 m from the center of t

choli [55]

Answer:

Part a)

$\tau = 23.1 Nm$

Part b)

$\tau = 17.05 Foot pound force$

Explanation:

As we know that torque is defined as the product of force and its perpendicular distance from reference point

so here we have

$\tau = \vec r \times \vec F$

now we have

$\tau = (0.140)(165)$

$\tau = 23.1 Nm$

Part b)

Now we know the conversion as

1 meter = 3.28 foot

1 N = 0.225 Lb force

now we have

$\tau = 23.1 Nm$

$\tau = 23.1 (0.225 Lb)(3.28 foot)$

$\tau = 17.05 Foot pound force$

Train cars are coupled together by being bumped into one another. Suppose two loaded train cars are moving toward one another, t

stellarik [79]

Answer:

0.243 m/s

Explanation:

From law of conservation of motion,

mu+m'u' = V(m+m')................. Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first car, m' = mass of the second car, initial velocity of the first car, u' = initial velocity of the second car, V = Final velocity of both cars.

make V the subject of the equation

V = (mu+m'u')/(m+m')................. Equation 2

Given: m = 260000 kg, u = 0.32 m/s, m' = 52500 kg, u' = -0.14 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

V = (260000×0.32+52500×(-0.14))/(260000+52500)

V = (83200-7350)/312500

V = 75850/312500

V = 0.243 m/s
