Suppose a scoentist was able to construct a barometer with a liquid being denser than mercury , then how high would the liquid r

Answer:

the liquid has less height than the mercury

      h_{ liquid} = \frac{\rho_{Hg} }{\rho_{liqid}}  \  h_{Hg}

Explanation:

The pressure as a function of the height is given by

        P = ρ g h

where ρ is the density of the liquid, g the acceleration of gravity and h the height reached by the column of the liquid

In that case they say that the pressure is the standard one that is P = 1.01 10⁵ Pa = 760 mmHg

The first way to give the pressure is in SI units and the second way is the height that the mercury column reaches

In the case of building a barometer with a liquid that has a density greater than that of mercury

            ρ_liquid > ρ_Hg

             

the pressure

              P =ρ_lquid g h_liquid

if we have the same pressure

            ρ_{Hg} g h_{Hg} = ρ_{liquid}  g h_{liquid}

            h_{ liquid} = \frac{\rho_{Hg} }{\rho_{liqid}}  \  h_{Hg}

therefore the liquid has less height than the mercury

How far will a car travel if its velocity is 15 m/s in 3 seconds? Follow example below.
svet-max [94.6K]
<h3><u>Solution</u><u>:</u></h3>
  • Distance (d) = 112 m
  • Time (t) = 4 seconds
  • Let the speed be v.
  • We know, speed = Distance / Time
  • Therefore, v = d/t

or, v = 112 m ÷ 4 s = 28 m/s

<h3><u>Answer</u><u>:</u></h3>

<u>The </u><u>speed </u><u>of </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>cheetah</u><u> </u><u>is </u><u>2</u><u>8</u><u> </u><u>m/</u><u>s.</u>

How many mm are in a micro-m?
Dahasolnce [82]

For this case we have that by definition, a micrometer is equivalent to a thousandth of a millimeter, that is, 0.001 millimeters.

Then, in other words, we have 0.001 millimeters in a micrometer.

Answer:

In a micrometer there are 0.001 millimeters.

What is the magnitude of the electric force between a proton and an electron when they are at a distance of 4.09 angstrom from e
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

F=1.38*10^{-9}N

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electric force between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them:

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}

Here k is the Coulomb constant. In this case, we have q_1=-e, q_2=e and d=4.09*10^-10m. Replacing the values:

F=\frac{8.99*10^{9}\frac{N\cdot m^2}{C^2}(-1.6*10^{-19}C)(1.6*10^{-19}C)}{(4.09*10^{-10})^2}\\F=-1.38*10^{-9}N

The negative sign indicates that it is an attractive force. So, the magnitude of the electric force is:

F=1.38*10^{-9}N
