As a rain storm passes through a region, there is an associated drop in atmospheric pressure. If the height of a mercury baromet

er drops by 21.6 mm from the normal height, what is the atmospheric pressure (in Pa)? Normal atmospheric pressure is 1.013 ✕ 105 Pa and the density of mercury is 13.6 g/cm3.

Answer:

new atmospheric pressure is 0.9838 × 10^{5}  Pa

Explanation:

given data

height = 21.6 mm = 0.0216 m

Normal atmospheric pressure = 1.013 ✕ 10^5 Pa

density of mercury = 13.6 g/cm³

to find out

atmospheric pressure

solution

we find first height of mercury when normal pressure that is

pressure p = ρ×g×h

put here value

1.013 × 10^{5}  = 13.6 × 10³ × 9.81 × h

h =  0.759 m

so change in height Δh = 0.759 - 0.0216

new height H = 0.7374 m

so new pressure = ρ×g×H

put here value

new pressure = 13.6 × 10³ × 9.81 × 0.7374

atmospheric pressure = 98380.9584

so new atmospheric pressure is 0.9838 × 10^{5}  Pa

Why does salt dissolve in water act as an antifreeze?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

An antifreeze is a substance which when added to a liquid reduces the freezing point of the liquid. Hence the solution can only freeze at a lower temperature compared to the solvent. Examples of antifreeze includes salt and propylene glycol. Antifreeze are used in low temperature environments to prevent water from freezing quicky. Hence the answer is A.

A rocket weighs 9800N (opposing force) what is it mass? What netforce moves the rocket? What applied force gives it a vertical a
Slav-nsk [51]

For the first part of this question, consider that "weight" can be described as mass x acceleration of gravity. Weight is expressed in Newtons. To solve for mass in this case, simply divide 9800N by 9.8m/s^2 (Earth's gravitational acceleration). This will give you a mass of 1000 kg. This mass is moved due to the net force supplied by the normal force from the rocket "pushing" off of Earth.

For the second part, we will use the equation F = ma, which is Newton's second law. For this, we know the m, or mass, is 1000 kg. Also, we know the a, or acceleration, will be 4 m/s^2. To solve for force, we will multiply both of these values. This gives a force of 4000 N. I hope this clears things up!

The electrons lost from chlorophyll photooxidation are replaced by the oxidation of water. how many electrons are generated from
White raven [17]

There are 2 electrons generated from the oxidation of one water molecule.

<h3>Describe photooxidation.</h3>

The process of a substance interacting with oxygen or losing electrons from chemical species under the influence of light is known as photooxidation. Photooxidation happens in plants when there is environmental stress. It is called photooxidative stress as a result. Reactive oxygen species are produced by the absorption of excess excitation energy in plant tissues. Chloroplasts are harmed by the accumulation of these reactive oxygen species, which is a damaging process in plants. High-intensity light and little CO_{2} are the two conditions that cause this photooxidative stress to occur most frequently. It is a procedure that requires light. Photorespiration in C_{3} plants guards against photooxidation.

An object has a kinetic energy of 175 J and a momentum of magnitude 25.0 kg m/s. Find the
DedPeter [7]

Answer:14 m/s

Explanation:

Kinetic energy(ke)=175J

Momentum(M)=25kgm/s

Speed=v

Mass=m

Ke=(m x v x v)/2

175=(mv^2)/2

Cross multiply

175 x 2=mv^2

350=mv^2

Momentum=mass x velocity

25=mv

m=25/v

Substitute m=25/v in 350=mv^2

350=25/v x v^2

350=25v^2/v

v^2/v=v

350=25v

v=350/25

v=14 m/s
