The outer surface of the glass expands faster than the inside surface since glass is a fairly good thermal insulator. The outer surface tries to expand without the inner surface doing so at the same time. This is the secret of Pyrex glass. It is more conductive to heat and the inner and outer surface expand (and contract) at the same time.

What is the weight of a 5.00 kg object on Earth? Assume g=9.81 m/s^2.
Softa [21]

<em>weight = (mass) x (gravity)</em>

Weight = (5.00 kg) x (9.81 m/s²)

weight = (5.00 x 9.81) (kg-m/s²)

<em>Weight = 49.05 Newton</em>

What is the new volume of the gas if the pressure on 350 L of oxygen
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

420 L

Explanation:

Applying Boyle's Law,

PV = P'V'.................... Equation 1

Where P = Initial pressure, P' = Final pressure, V = Initial volume, V' = Final volume.

make V' the subject of the equation

V' = PV/P'.................... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 720 mmHg, V = 350 L, P' = 600 mmHg

Substitute these values into equation 2

V' = (720×350)/600

V' = 252000/600

V' = 420 L

Someone help please by providing work and answers please :)
cupoosta [38]
There are two ways to solve this. The longer way is to use those equations to calculate numbers for total distance.

The easier way is to find the area under the graph. That's right, AREA UNDER VELOCITY-TIME graph is the TOTAL DISTANCE travelled!

it's a shortcut.

Let's split up the area into a triangle and rectangle:

Triangle = 0.5(4-0)(10-0) = 20 m
Rectangle = (6-4)(10-0) = 20 m

Total distance = 40 m!

Two cylindrical rods, one copper and the other iron, are identical in lengths and cross-sectional areas. They are joined, end to
Pie

Answer:

Vc = 2.41 v

Explanation:

voltage (v) = 16 v

find the voltage between the ends of the copper rods .

applying the voltage divider theorem

Vc = V x (\frac{Rc}{Rc + Ri})

where

  • Rc = resistance of copper = \frac{ρl}{a}  (l = length , a = area, ρ = resistivity of copper)
  • Ri = resistance of iron = \frac{ρ₀l}{a}  (l = length , a = area, ρ₀ = resistivity of copper)

Vc =  V x (\frac{\frac{ρl}{a}}{\frac{ρl}{a} + \frac{ρ₀l}{a}})

Vc = V x (\frac{ρ x (\frac{l}{a})}{(ρ + ρ₀) x (\frac{l}{a})})

Vc = V x (\frac{ρ}{ρ + ρ₀})

where

  • ρ = resistivity of copper = 1.72 x 10^{-8} ohm.meter
  • ρ₀ = resistivity of iron = 9.71 x 10^{-8} ohm.meter

Vc = 16 x (\frac{1.72 x 10^{-8}}{1.72 x 10^{-8} + 9.71 x 10^{-8}})

Vc = 2.41 v
