Write the working mechanism of Mercury Barometer and explain its parts in short.​

Physics
1 answer:
Lina20 [59]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

as I know about barometer consist of a mercury .

it can be made with a clean ,dry, thick walled glass tube of about one metre long .

the working mechanism can be given by:

when there is air pressure the mercury in the glass goes against the air pressure to balance itself .

If the weight of mercury is less than atmospheric pressure then the mercury will rise upwards and vice versa.

I think no need to explain the parts u can do it your self as it consist of testube and mercury as main components.if u want the explanation then use search engines to reshearch.

hope this helped you

comment if got any confusion .

Calculate the amount of gravitational potential energy at the top of each hill
Marizza181 [45]
The gravitational potential energy has the formula:
PE = mgh
where PE is in joules
m is the mass of the object in kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity
h is the height in m

since you did not give the value of h, i cannot fully answer your quesstion.
PE = (58/1000 kg) (9.81m/s2) h
PE = 0.57h
just substitute the value of h in the equation

A long, straight wire carries a current of 8.60
Kay [80]

First of all, we need to calculate the magnetic field generated by the wire at a distance r=3.90 cm=0.039 m, which is given by:

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}

where I=8.60 A is the current. Substituting numbers in the equation, we find

B=\frac{(4 \pi \cdot 10^{-7})(8.6 A)}{2 \pi (0.039 m)}=4.4 \cdot 10^{-5} T

And now we can calculate the force exerted on the electron, which is given by:

F=qvB

where q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C is the charge of the electron and v=5.0 \cdot 10^4 m/s is its speed. Substituting data in the formula, we find

F=(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(5.00 \cdot 10^4 m/s)(4.4 \cdot 10^{-5} T)=3.5 \cdot 10^{-19} N

a 0.0780 kg lemming runs off a 5.36 m high cliff at 4.84 m/s. what is its kinetic energy(KE) when it jumps PLEASE HELP ME
Kay [80]

Answer:

0.91 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

For the lemming in this problem, when he jumps, we have:

m = 0.0780 kg is the mass

v = 4.84 m/s is the speed

Substituting into the equation, we find:

K=\frac{1}{2}(0.0780)(4.84)^2=0.91 J
