A vacuum gauge is a pressure gauge used to measure pressures lower than the ambient atmospheric pressure, which is set as the zero point, in negative values (e.g.: −15 psig or −760 mmHg equals total vacuum).

If you measure 0.7 V across a diode, the diode is probably made of
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Made of Silicon.

Explanation:

A diode is a semiconductor device use in mostly electronic appliances. It is two terminals device consisting of a P-N junction formed either in Germanium or silicon crystal.

Diode can be forward biased or reverse biased.

When a diode is forward biased and the applied voltage is increased from zero, hardly any current flows through the device in the beginning.

It is so because the external voltage is being opposed by the internal barrier voltage whose value is 0.7v for silicon and 0.3v for germanium.

If you measure 0.7 V across a diode, the diode is probably therefore made of Silicon.

A heavy ball with a weight of 150 N is hung from the ceiling of a lecture hall on a 4.0-m-long rope. The ball is pulled to one s
shusha [124]

Answer:

The tension in the rope at the lowest point is 270 N

Explanation:

Given;

weight of the ball, W = 150 N

length of the rope, r = 4 m

velocity of the ball, v = 5.6 m/s

When the ball passes through the lowest point, the tension on the rope is the sum of weight of the ball and centripetal force.

T = W + F

Centripetal force, F = mv²/r

where;

m is the mass of the ball

m = W/g

m = 150 / 9.8 = 15.306 kg

Centripetal force, F = mv²/r

F = (15.306 x 5.6²)/4

F = 120 N

T = W + F

T = 150 + 120

T = 270 N

Therefore, the tension in the rope at the lowest point is 270 N

Do a summary what happen to titanic in the aspect of material(body) and the ductile brittle temperature (DBT) of the material.
vodka [1.7K]

Explanation:

A ductile material can convert into brittle material due to following reasons

1.At very low temperature

2.Due to presence of notch

In titanic ,the base of ship strike to the large ice cube and lower part of titanic ship material was made of steel .We know that steel is ductile material and when steel came with very low temperature of ice due to this ductile material converted in to brittle material and titanic ship failed.Brittle material does not show any indication before failure.
