What is pressure and how it is calculated ?​

Physics
1 answer:
Vitek1552 [10]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Pressure is defined as the force divided by the area perpendicular to the force over which the force is applied, or. P=FA. A given force can have a significantly different effect depending on the area over which the force is exerted Pressure the effect of a force applied to a surface is a derived unit, obtained from combining base units. The unit of pressure in the SI system is the pascal (Pa), defined as a force of one Newton per square meter. The conversion between atm, Pa, and torr is as follows: 1 atm = 101325 Pa = 760 torr.

Explanation:

Pressure and force are related, and so you can calculate one if you know the other by using the physics equation, P = F/A. Because pressure is force divided by area, its meter-kilogram-second (MKS) units are newtons per square meter, or N/m2. If you convert an atmosphere to pounds per square inch, it's about 14.7 psi.

At what time was the person at a position of 0m?
Anni [7]

Answer: The person was not at a position of "0" at any time. The person started at 10 metres from the starting line. The explanation below shows how to use the standard formula for position when the initial position is not "0". It is noteworthy that the standard expression of the formula for distance travelled does not include a variable (e.g. "d") for distance at the start (when t(time) = 0)

Explanation: At time = 0, the start, the person was at 10m distance from the starting line. Therefore, to use the standard equation, "s + ut + 1/2att (t squared, that is), distance from starting line = 10 + s, that is, total distance from starting line  equals initial position, 10 metres, plus "s" (distance travelled from t = 0 to t = 1) in metres.

for the section of the graph from "0" seconds (t = 0) to 1 second (t = 1):

s = ut + 1/2att

the initial position is 10 metres.

s = 10

the distance is constant from t = 0 to t = 1, therefore the velocity for the whole of that section of graph must be 0.

u = 0

there is no change in the velocity from t = 0 to t= 1, therefore the acceleration for the first section of the graph must be 0.

a = 0

s = ut + 1/2att

  = (0 x 1) + 1/2 (0 x 1 x 1)

  = (0) + 1/2 (0)

  = 0

total distance from starting line (position) equals initial position plus change in position (distance travelled).

at t = 1,

position = 10 + 0

 = 10 metres

The whole of the graph can be analysed using this process for each straight section of the graph separately, adding "s" for each section to the previous total of distance from starting line.

using "d" for initial distance from starting line ( position ), d1 for distance from starting line at t = 1, d2 for distance from starting line at t = 2, etcetera:

section 1, t = 0 to t = 1:

d1 (t=0 to t=1)  =  10 + s (t=0 to t=1).

section 2, t= 1 to t = 2:

d2 (t=0 to t=2) = 10 + s (t=0 to t=1) + s (t=1 to t=2).

etcetera.

How does the loneliest whale relate to physics/waves.
Lelechka [254]
Answer: the loneliest whale relates to the communication that whales give to each other

Explanation: whales have different forms of communication , and the ‘loneliest’ whale can’t get any company by the other whales.


In other words: it may be a new and different way whales communicate, nobody knows much about the loneliest whale. It may be forming a new kind of communication

A 0.20-kg object is attached to the end of an ideal horizontal spring that has a spring constant of 120 N/m. The simple harmonic
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

<em>A = 6.9 cm</em>

Explanation:

<u>Simple Harmonic Motion</u>

A mass-spring system is a common example of a simple harmonic motion device since it keeps oscillating when the spring is stretched back and forth.

If a mass m is attached to a spring of constant k and they are set to oscillate, the angular frequency of the motion is

\displaystyle w=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

The equation for the motion of the object is written as a sinusoid:

\displaystyle X=A\ cos\ w\ t

Where A is the amplitude.

The instantaneous speed is computed as the derivative of the distance

\displaystyle X'=V=-A\ w\ sin\ w\ t

And the maximum speed is

\displaystyle V_{max}= A\ w

Solving for the amplitude

\displaystyle A= \frac{V_{max}}{w}

Computing w

\displaystyle w =\sqrt{\frac{120}{0.2}}=24.5\   rad/ s

Calculating A

\displaystyle A=\frac{1.7}{24.5}=0.069\ m

\displaystyle \boxed{A=6.9\ cm}

Newton's law of cooling states that the temperature of an object changes at a rate proportional to the difference between its te
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Tt = 70 + 135e^-0.031t

13 minutes

Explanation:

Given that :

Initial temperature, Ti = 205°

Temperature after 2.5 minutes = 195°

Temperature of room, Ts= 70

Using the relation :

Tt = Ts + Ce^-kt

Temperature after time, t

When freshly poured, t = 0

205 = 70 + Ce^-0k

205 = 70 + C

C = 205 - 70 = 135°

T after 2.5 minutes to find proportionality constant, k

Tt = Ts + Ce^-kt

195 = 70 + 135e^-2.5k

125 = 135e^-2.5k

125 / 135 = e^-2.5k

0.9259 = e^-2.5k

Take In of both sides :

−0.076989 = - 2.5k

k = −0.076989 / - 2.5

k = 0.031

Equation becomes :

Tt = 70 + 135e^-0.031t

t when Tt = 160

160 = 70 + 135e^-0.031k

90 = 135e^-0.031t

90/135 = e^-0.031t

0.6667 = e^-0.031t

In(0.6667) = - 0.031t

−0.405465 = - 0.031t

t = 0.405465/ 0.031

t = 13.071

t = 13 minutes
