100 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST! What were the Magdeburg Hemispheres?

Physics

The Magdeburg hemispheres are a pair of large copper hemispheres, with mating rims. They were used to demonstrate the power of atmospheric pressure. When the rims were sealed with grease and the air was pumped out, the sphere contained a vacuum and could not be pulled apart by teams of horses.

Answer:

Magdeburg hemispheres are two half-spheres of equal size. Placing them together traps air between them. This air is merely trapped, and not compressed, so the pressure inside is the same as the pressure of the atmosphere outside the spheres. The spheres thus pull apart with nearly no resistance.

Question 25
aniked [119]

Answer:

o The result of a chemical change is a different  composition; in a physical change, the composition  remains the same.

Explanation:

In a chemical change, new kinds of matter are produced although the atoms are the same.

For physical changes, no new kinds of matter formed. Only the state of substances changes.

  • Most chemical changes are usually irreversible
  • Physical changes are reversible in most parts.
  • Changes in state and form are salient characteristics of physical changes.
  • When new products are formed from the reactants, it is an indicator of a chemical change.

A weightlifter raises a 200-kg barbell through a height of 2 m in 2.2 s. the average power he develops during the lift is
Lunna [17]
Power is calculated as work per unit time, and work in turn is calculated as force multiplied by distance. In this case, the force required is equivalent to the weight of the barbell multiplied by acceleration due to gravity.
P = W/t = Fd/t = mgd/t = (200 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(2 m)/2.2 s = 1783.64 Watts.

A 20-kg block slides down a fixed rough curved track The block has a speed of 5 0 m/s after its height above a horizontal surfac
Crank

Answer:

U = 102.8 J (100 J to two significant digits)

Explanation:

potential energy converted = 20(9.8)(1.8) = 352.8 J

kinetic energy at base of track = ½(20)5.0² = 250 J

energy (work) of friction 352.8 - 250 = 102.8 J

Blue to gray in color and reaching up to 10 feet (3.05 meters) in length and 220 pounds (99.8 kilograms) in weight, the sailfish
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

the distance traveled by the fish is 3648 m

Explanation:

In general, animals have a small period of acceleration, which we will despise after which they travel at a constant speed so we can use the kinematic equations in uniform motion

   

We reduce the units to System SI

      t = 2 min (60s / 1 min) = 120 s

Calculate

       V = x / t

       x= V t

       x = 30.4 120

       x = 3648 m

 

This is the distance traveled by the fish

A trough is 10 feet long and its ends have the shape of isosceles triangles that are 3 feet across at the top and 1 foot high. I
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

1.6 ft/min

Explanation:

Since trough is 10 ft long and water is filled at the rate of 12ft3/min. We can calculate the rate of water filled with respect to area:

= 12 / 10 = 1.2ft2/min

As the water level rises, so does the water surface, or the bottom side of the isosceles triangles. In fact we can calculate the bottom side when the trough is half foot deep:

= 3 / 2 = 1.5 ft

The rate of change in water level would be the same as calculating the height of the isosceles triangles knowing its base

= 1.2 * 2 / 1.5 = 1.6 ft/min
