What force, in newtons, must you exert on the balloon with your hands to create a gauge pressure of 62.5 cm H2O, if you squeeze

on an effective area of 51 cm2? Assume the pressure in the balloon is one atmosphere before you squeeze.

Answer:54.70 N

Explanation:

Given

Gauge Pressure of $62.5 cm of H_2O$

i.e. $h=62.5 cm =0.625 m$

Effective area $A=51 cm^2$

initial Pressure $= 1 atm=101.325 kPa$

Gauge Pressure $P=\rho gh$

$\rho =density\ of\ water =1000 kg/m^3$

$P_{gauge}=1000\times 9.8\times 0.625=5.937 kPa$

Force creates a pressure of $P_1$ which will be equal to Gauge Pressure

$P_1=\frac{F}{A}$

$P_1=P_{gauge}$

$\frac{F}{A}=5.937 kPa$

$F=5.937\times 51\times 10^{-4}\times 10^3$

$F=30.27 N$

The volume of gas in a flexible container at a depth of 10 m/33 ft will expand to ______ its original volume if taken to the sur

natulia [17]

The volume of gas in a flexible container at a depth of 10 m/33 ft will expand to double its original volume if taken to the surface.

What is volume:

The amount of space that a substance or object occupies.

Volume is denoted with letter V

What is a gas molecule?

Generally, a gas molecule is simply defined as a combination of numbers of atoms that are connected one to another.

here, 10 m/33 feet of sea water is taken to exerts a gauge pressure that is the same pressure as the atmosphere.

This means that we add one atmosphere/bar pressure for every 10 m/33 feet you descend.

The effect of this is that,

at 10 m/33 ft absolute pressure is two ata/bar

Adding another 10 m/33 ft to this depth to make it 20 m/66 ft, puts you under under three ata/bar of pressure and so on.

Descending to a depth it means that you have double the ata/bar pressure acting on you. If you decide to resurface, the pressure on the flexible container will reduce by a factor of two.

Since volume is inversely proportional to the pressure,

If the pressure reduces by a factor of 2, then the volume will increase by a factor of two.

You are given a parallel plate capacitor that has plates of area 29 cm2 which are separated by 0.0100 mm of nylon (dielectric co

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

20.60 kV

Explanation:

Capacitance of parallel plates without dielectric between them is:

$C=\frac{\varepsilon_{0}A}{d}$

with d the distance between the plates, A the area of the plates and ε₀ the constant $8.85419\times10^{-12}\frac{C^{2}}{Nm^{2}}$ , so :

$C_0=\frac{(8.85419\times10^{-12})(0.0029)}{0.0100\times10^{-3}}=2.57\times10^{-9} F$

But the dielectric constant is defined as:

$k=\frac{C}{C_{0}}$

With C the effective capacitance (with the dielectric) and Co the original capacitance (without the dielectric). So, the new capacitance is:

$C=kC_0$

But capacitance is related with voltage by:

$C=\frac{Q}{V}$

with Q the charge and V the voltage, using the new capacitance and solving for V:

$kC_0=\frac{Q}{V}$

$V=\frac{Q}{kC_0}=\frac{0.18\times10{-3}}{(3.4)(2.57\times10^{-9})}=20599.68V=20.60 kV$

Which statement correctly describes variable stars?

Kryger [21]

Answer:

D)

Explanation:

The Period-Luminosity relationship tells us that luminosity increases with the period, and of course the more luminosity a star has the more far away they can be seen, so from this we know that:

A) False since lower luminosities can be observed when they are close.

B) False since longer periods means higher luminosities

C) False since lower luminosities can be observed when they are close.

D) True: Variable stars with shorter periods have lower luminosities, so they can only be observed when they are close.
