Answer:

8.28 MPa

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Radius (r) = 2×10¯³ m

Force applied (F) = 104 N

Pressure (P) =?

Next, we shall determine the area of the nail (i.e circle). This can be obtained as follow:

Radius (r) = 2×10¯³ m

Area (A) of circle =?

Pi (π) = 3.14

A = πr²

A = 3.14 × (2×10¯³)²

A = 3.14 × 4×10¯⁶

A = 1.256×10¯⁵ m²

Next, we shall determine the pressure. This can be obtained as follow:

Force applied (F) = 104 N

Area (A) = 1.256×10¯⁵ m²

Pressure (P) =?

P = F / A

P = 104 / 1.256×10¯⁵

P = 8280254.78 Nm¯²

Finally, we shall convert 8280254.78 Nm¯² to MPa. This can be obtained as follow:

1 Nm¯² = 1×10¯⁶ MPa

Therefore,

8280254.78 Nm¯² = 8280254.78 Nm¯² × 1×10¯⁶ MPa / 1 Nm¯²

8280254.78 Nm¯² = 8.28 MPa

Thus, the pressure exerted on the wall is 8.28 MPa

What happens to a line when the y-intercept is changed? Check all that apply.
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

As the y-intercept increases, the graph of the line shifts up;

As the y-intercept decreases, the graph of the line shifts down

Explanation:

There are two ways to think about this problem. The first way would be the graphical approach:

  • if we only change the y-intercept, this means we keep the same slope;
  • y-axis is the vertical axis;
  • if we change the point at which the line crosses the y-axis, we either shift it upward for a higher y-intercept or downward for a lower y-intercept.

Now, thinking algebraically, a line has the following equation in a general form:

y = mx + b

The y-intercept is essentially obtained when x = 0, then:

y = b:

  • if we increase b value, the y value increases, so the graph shifts upward;
  • if we decrease b value, the y value decreases, so the graph shifts downward.

How is the Law of Conservation of Mass, Matter, Phases of Matter, and Physical/Chemical Changes similar/connected to one another
kogti [31]

Answer:

Solids, liquids, and gases are made of tiny particles called atoms and molecules. In a solid, the particles are very attracted to each other. They are close together and vibrate in position but don't move past one another. In a liquid, the particles are attracted to each other but not as much as they are in a solid.

The sun has been up for several hours, and it has been shining on these trees. What can the trees do because they are in sunligh
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

1. C. take in carbon from the air. The carbon is used to make energy storage

molecules.

2. b Carbon is moving into the air and out of the air at the same time

Explanation:

Question 1:

Trees are plants, which are autotrophic organisms i.e. set of organisms that are capable of producing their own food via a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS. This photosynthetic process produces sugars (glucose) in the presence of SUNLIGHT. According to this question, the sun has been up for several hours, and has been shining on these trees. This means that the trees can take in carbo dioxide (CO2) in order to perform the process of photosynthesis. Also, the number of energy storage molecules in the trees (ATP) will INCREASE.

What can the trees do because they are in sunlight? What does this mean for the ?
