Answer:

Weight = 966 Newton.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Length = 1.2 m

Width = 2.3 m

Pressure = 350 Pa

To find the weight of the tank;

We know that weight is the force of gravity acting on an object multiplied by its mass.

Weight = mg = force

Hence, we would determine the force using the parameters that were given.

But we would first determine the area of the rectangular tank.

Area of rectangle, A = length * width

A = 1.2 * 2.3

A = 2.76 m²

Mathematically, pressure is given by the formula;

Pressure = force/area

Force = pressure * area

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Force = 2.76 * 350

Force = 966 Newton

Therefore, the weight of the tank is 966 Newton.

How many charges are required to have an electric field
Liono4ka [1.6K]
One charge is enough in order to have an electric field. 

In fact, every charge generates an electric field: for example, the electric field generated by a single point positive charge is radial, as shown in the attached figure. More complicate electric field configurations can be obtained adding charges or using more complicate charge distributions, but one charge is enough to have an electric field.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

None of the animals are from the same species

Explanation:

The exact question is as follows :

Given -

Felis catus

Sylvilagus audubonii

Parus inornatus

Euarctos americanus

Check out the list of scientific names. These names all represent animals. These are all animals but they cannot reproduce to produce fertile offspring with each other.

To find - What conclusion can be drawn from the past statement?

Solution -

The conclusion we can made from past statement is that - None of the animals are from the same species

Reason -

When two members of the same species reproduce, they produce fertile offspring.

According to the scientific names of the animals, there are different genus and species names.

A certain device in a 120-V circuit has a current rating of 20 A. What is the resistance of the device (how many ohms)?
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

R = 60 Ω

Explanation:

given,

Potential of the certain device, V = 120 V

current rating of the circuit, I = 20 A

resistance of the device, R = ?

Using Ohm's Law

V = I R

R = \dfrac{V}{I}  

R = \dfrac{120}{20}  

R = 60 Ω

hence, the resistance of the device is equal to 60 Ω

A train of mass 50000 kg starts from rest and moves with uniform acceleration 5 km/h2 then, find its kinetic energy after 30 min
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

12 kJ

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 km/h

a = 5 km/h²

t = 30 min = 0.5 h

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (5 km/h²) (0.5 h) + 0 km/h

v = 2.5 km/h

v = 2.5 km/h × (1000 m/km) × (1 h / 3600 s)

v = 0.694 m/s

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (50,000 kg) (0.694 m/s)²

KE = 12,000 J

KE = 12 kJ
