Lina20 [59]2 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 .

11. A 6.0‐m wire with a mass of 50 g, is under tension. A transverse wave, for which the frequency is 810 Hz, the wavelength is
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Time will be 19 ms so option (a) is correct option

Explanation:

We have given that mass of wire m = 50 gram = 0.5 kg

Frequency f = 810 Hz

Wavelength = 0.4 m

Velocity is given by

v=wavelength\times frequency=810\times 0.4=324m/sec

Amplitude is given as d = 6 m

So time t=\frac{distance}{velocity}=\frac{6}{324}=0.01851=19ms

So option (a) is correct option

Two toy cars (m1 = 0.200 kg and m2 = 0.250 kg) are held together rear to rear with a compressed spring between them. When they a
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Acceleration of the second particle at that moment is given as

a_2 = 2.12 m/s^2

Explanation:

As we know that both cars are connected by same spring

So on this system of two cars there is no external force

So we will have

F = 0 = m_1a_1 + m_2a_2

now we have

m_1 = 0.200 kg

m_2 = 0.250 kg

a_1 = 2.65 m/s^2

now we have

0.200(2.65) + 0.250a_2 = 0

so we have

a_2 = 2.12 m/s^2

Why should it take significantly more energy to move a beam of alpha particles than a beam of beta minus (β–) particles?
a_sh-v [17]
An 'alpha particle' is the same thing as the nucleus of a helium atom ... 
a little bundle made of 2 protons and 2 neutrons.

A 'beta' particle is an electron.

The mass of an alpha particle is more than 7,000 times the mass of 
an electron, so it certainly takes more energy to get it moving.

In general, if the temperature of a chemical reaction is increased, the reaction rateA. IncreasesB. decreasesC. remains the same
In-s [12.5K]
A. Increases

I would assume this to be the answer because heat is another form of energy. If there is more energy the molecules will become more active. This makes A the most logical answer.
