Answer:

A book on its side exerts a greater force.

Explanation:

Pressure = Force / Area

Assuming that 1kg = 10N

2kg = 20N

Area of book lying flat = 0.3m × 0.2m

                                     = 0.6m²

Pressure of book lying flat = 20N / 0.6m²

                                            = 30Pa (1 s.f.)

Area of book on its side = 0.2m × 0.05m

                                        = 0.01m²

Pressure of book on its side = 20N / 0.01m²

                                               = 2000Pa (1 s.f.)

Since 2000Pa (1 s.f.) > 30Pa (1 s.f.), a book on its side applies greater pressure than lying flat.

Elena L [17]

According to Boyle’s law, For a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, P (pressure) and V (volume) are inversely proportional.

Therefore,

P_{1} V_{1} =P_{2} V_{2}

Given P_{1} = 1 atm , V_{1} = 15 \ cubic \ meter and P_{2} = 0.75\ atm.

Thus,

V_{2} = \frac{P_{1}\times V_{1}  }{ P_{2} } = \frac{1\times 15}{0.75} =20 m^3

puteri [66]

Answer:

\mu=0.0049Kg/m

Explanation:

When a standing wave is formed with six loops means the normal mode of the wave is n=6, the frequency of the normal mode is given by the expression:

f_n=\frac{nv}{2L}

Where L is the length of the string and v the velocity of propagation. Use this expression to find the value of v.

f_6=\frac{6v}{2L}\\(150)=\frac{6v}{2(2)} \\150=\frac{3v}{2} \\3v=150(2)\\ v=\frac{300}{3} \\v=100m/s

The velocity of propagation is given by the expression:

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu }

Where \mu is the desirable variable of the problem, the linear mass density, and T is the tension of the cord. The tension is equal to the weight of the mass hanging from the cord:

T=W=mg=(5)(9.81)=49.05N

With the value of the tension and the velocity you can find the mass density:

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}

v^2=\frac{T}{\mu}\\ \mu=\frac{T}{v^2} =\frac{49.05}{(100)^2} =\frac{49.05}{10000} =0.0049Kg/m
