The pressure of the atmosphere, when a barometer reads 780 mm Hg. Mercury which a density of 1.36 x 10^4 kg /m^3 is B 1.1 x 10^5 N/m^2

This problem can be solved using the formula below

P = dgh................. Equation 1

Where P = Pressure of the atmosphere, d = density of the mercury, h = height of the mercury, g = acceleration due to gravity.

From the question,

Given: d = 1.36×10⁴ kg/m³, h = 780 mm = 0.78 m,

Constant: g = 10 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = (1.36×10⁴)(10)(0.78)

P = 10.608×10⁴ N/m²

P ≈ 1.1×10⁵ N/m²

Hence the right answer is B. 1.1×10⁵ N/m²

Answer:

Explanation:

Pressure = density × g × height

$p \: = (1.36 \times {10}^{4} )(10)(780 \times {10}^{ - 3} ) \\ p = 1.1 \times {10}^{5}$

Explanation:

The height of the pendulum is measured from the lowest point it reaches (point 3).

At 1, the kinetic energy of the pendulum is zero (because it is not moving), and it has maximum potential energy.

At 2, the pendulum has both kinetic and potential energy, and how much of each it has depends on its height—smaller the height greater the kinetic energy and lower the potential energy.

At 3, the height is zero; therefore, the pendulum has no potential energy, and has maximum kinetic energy.

At 4, the pendulum again gains potential energy as it climbs back up, Again how much of each forms of energy it has depends on its height.

At 5, the maximum height is reached again; therefore, the pendulum has maximum potential energy and no kinetic energy.

Hope this helps :)

A man and his dog are “walking” on flat Street. He is pulling on his stubborn dog with a force of 70 N Directed at a 30° angle f

Delvig [45]

Answer:

X component of force is 60.62 N.

Y component of force is 35 N.

Force of gravity on the dog is 245 N.

Magnitude of normal force is 210 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Force of pull is, $F=70\ N$

Mass of the dog is, $m=25\ kg$

Angle of inclination is, $\theta =30$ °

Acceleration due to gravity is, $g=9.8\ m/s^2$

The free body diagram of the dog is shown below.

The X and Y components of force of pull is given as:

$F_X=F\cos \theta=(70)\cos (30)=60.62\ N\\F_Y=F\sin \theta=(70)\sin(30)=35\ N$

Therefore, the X and Y components of the force are 60.62 N and 35 N respectively.

Force of gravity on the dog is the product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity. Thus,

$F_g=mg=25\times 9.8=245\ N$

Therefore, the force of gravity on the dog is 245 N.

Now, consider the motion in the vertical direction of the dog. As there is no motion in the vertical direction, the net force along the Y direction is 0. In other words, the total Upward force is equal to the total downward force.

From the free body diagram,

$N+F_Y=mg\\N=mg-F_Y\\N=245-35=210\ N$

Therefore, the normal force acting on the dog is 210 N.

Suppose that you and three classmates are discussing the design of a roller coaster. One says that each hill must be lower than

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

I would say that I agree with the one that said that each hill must be lower than the previous one and use the principle of conservation of energy to explain.

Explanation:

Roller coaster are usually designed such that its total energy remains conserved at any point on the track. Now, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. At certain height on the track, the total energy of the roller coaster is in form of potential energy, which gets converted to kinetic energy as soon as it starts sliding down the hill till get to the hill's endpoint where it has maximum kinetic energy. The cycle of sliding from a high point on the track to a low point on the track means there is potential energy is converted to kinetic energy and kinetic energy then converts back to potential energy and the cycle continues.

However, due to the effect of gravity and frictional force between the track and the coaster, the energy of the coaster is gradually reduces, so it becomes a bit difficult for the coaster to move to the next hill of the same height. It is for this reason that each hill must be lower than the previous one, so that the coaster can overcome the next hill's height with its reduced energy until it loses all its energy and comes to a stop.
