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 away is the furthest artificial satellite orbiting earth?
rusak2 [61]
Real-time distance and velocity data is provided by NASA and JPL. At a distance of 153.88 AU (23.020 billion km; 14.304 billion mi) from Earth as of September 5, 2021, it is the most distant artificial object from Earth. The probe made successful flybys of Jupiter, Saturn, and Saturn's largest moon, Titan.

If the range of the projectile is 4.3 m, the time-of-flight is T = 0.829 s, and air resistance is negligible, determine the foll
ankoles [38]

Answer

given,

range of the projectile = 4.3 m

time of flight = T = 0.829 s

v =\dfrac{d}{T}

v =\dfrac{4.3}{0.829}

     v = 5.19 m/s

vertical component of velocity of projectile

v_y = gt'

v_y = 9.8 \times {\dfrac{T}{2}}

v_y = 9.8 \times {\dfrac{0.829}{2}}

v_y =4.06\ m/s

a) Launch angle

 \theta = tan^{-1}(\dfrac{v_y}{v})

 \theta = tan^{-1}(\dfrac{4.06}{5.19})

    θ = 38°

b) initial speed of projectile

  v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}

  v = \sqrt{5.19^2 + 4.06^2}

         v = 6.59 m/s

c) maximum height reached by the projectile

     y_{max}=v_{avg}t'

     y_{max}=\dfrac{1}{2}v_y\dfrac{T}{2}

     y_{max}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times(g\dfrac{T}{2})\times\dfrac{T}{2}

     y_{max}=\dfrac{gT^2}{8}

Precipitation clouds are observed at a distance of about 720 miles to the west of a city. The clouds are seen moving westwards a
tankabanditka [31]
This question may require more information for an accurate answer. If the clouds are observed west of the city and they are moving in a westerly direction it means that the clouds are moving away. Precipitation refers to rainfall, sleet, hail or snow. Since no reference was made to the temperature, season or location of the city it could be rain or snow clouds. The clouds are moving away from the city so the possible answers could be b. or d. Furthermore, by dividing the distance by the speed one would get an answer of twenty four hours. So even if the clouds were moving towards the city it would take a day to reach and precipitation would not be likely in 24 hrs.

Two 1.0 kg masses are 4.0 m apart on a frictionless table. Each has 1.0μC of charge. Part A What is the magnitude of the electri
9966 [12]

Force between two charges is given by

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

F =\frac{9*10^9* 1* 10^{-6}* 1 * 10^{-6}}{4^2}

F = 5.625 * 10^{-4} N

Now in order to find the acceleration of each mass

we can use

F = ma

5.625 * 10^{-4} = 1 * a

a= 5.625 * 10^{-4} m/s^2
