The ozone layer is beneficial because it protects us from the ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. Without it, survival would be difficult. It is harmful by containing all the pollution and chemicals . That damages our lungs and causes chest pain, coughing,etc.

A pump uses a piston of 15 cm diameter that moves at 2.0 cm/s as it pushes a fluid through a pipe. what is the speed of the flui

Nitella [24]

The important point here is that volumetric flow rate in the pump and the pipe is the same.

Q = AV, where Q = Volumetric flow rate, A = Cross sectional area, V = velocity

Q (pump) = (π*15^2)/4*2 = 353.43 cm^3/s
Q (pipe) = (π*(3/10)^2)/4*V = 0.071V

Q (pump) = Q (pipe)
0.071V = 353.43 => V = 5000 cm/s

Therefore, the flow of water in the pipe is 5000 cm/s.

You have 0.5 l of air at a pressure of 203 kpa and -70°c in a rigid, sealed contaainer. what is the absolute tempertaure of the

ANTONII [103]

From the information given and if the question is complete then;
Absolute temperature is the temperature in Kelvin
To convert degree Celsius to kelvin we normally add 273
that is Kelvin = deg Celsius + 273
Thus since we have been given that the air was at -70 degrees celcius;
then; - 70° C + 273 = 203 K
Therefore; the absolute temperature is 203 K

Answer:

a. charge C experiences the greatest net force, and charge B receives the smallest net force

b. ratio=9

Explanation:

<u>Electrostatic Force</u>

Two point-charges $q_1$ and $q_2$ separated a distance d will exert a force on each other of a magnitude given by the Coulomb's formula

$\displaystyle F=\frac{k\ q_1\ q_2}{r^2}$

Where k is the proportional constant of value

$k=9*10^9\ N.m^2/c^2$

The diagram provided in the question shows four identical charges (let's assume their value is Q) separated by identical distance (of value d). The force between the charges next to others is

$\displaystyle F_1=\frac{k\ Q\ Q}{d^2}$
