We simply asked to name three uses for mercury.
The most common and well-known use of mercury is the production of thermometers. It's property to stay liquid at room temperature makes it ideal for a temperature indicator. However, the use of mercury is thermometers has been phased out due to health hazards.
It is also used to form an amalgam which is the result of its combination with silver or gold. Mercury has been used to mine gold and silver. This application has also been phased out.
Today's use of mercury includes mercury-vapor lamps which are the bright lamps used in high-ways.

Two flywheels of negligible mass and different radii are bonded together and rotate about a common axis (see below). The smaller
jekas [21]

Answer:

F_2 = 29.54 N

Explanation:

As we know that the combination is maintained at rest position

So we will take net torque on the system to be ZERO

so we know that

\tau = \vec r \times \vec F

here we will have

\vec r_1 \times F_1 = \vec r_2 \times F_2

so we have

13 \times 50 = 22 \times F_2

so we have

F_2 = \frac{13 \times 50}{22}

F_2 = 29.54 N

A ski jumper travels down a slope and
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

304.86 metres

Explanation:

The x and y cordinates are dcos\theta and dsin\theta respectively

The horizontal distance travelled, x=v_{ox}t=dcos\theta

Making t the subject, t=\frac{dcos\theta}{v_{ox}}

Since y=0.5gt^2=dsin\theta, we substitute t with the above and obtain

0.5g(\frac{dcos\theta}{v_{ox}})^2=dsin\theta

Making d the subject we obtain

d=\frac{2v_{ox}^2sin\theta}{gcos^2\theta}

d=\frac{2*30^2sin48}{9.8cos^248}

d=304.8584

d=304.86m

Can you classify matter based on chemical properties
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Matter can be broken down into two categories: pure substances and mixtures. Pure substances are further broken down into elements and compounds. Mixtures are physically combined structures that can be separated into their original components. A chemical substance is composed of one type of atom or molecule.
