Answer:

Δ P =  13.24 Pa

Explanation:

Given that

Density of oil ,ρ₁ = 9 x 10² kg/m³

We know that density for mercury ,ρ₂  = 13.6 x 10³ kg/m³

The change in the height of column ,Δh = 1.5 mm

The pressure given as

P = ρ g h

Change in the pressure

Δ P =  ρ₁ g Δh

Now by putting the values

Δ P =  9 x 10² x 9.81 x 1.5 x 10⁻³    Pa

Δ P =  13.24 Pa

Therefor the change in the pressure will be 13.24 Pa.

A fly has a mass of 1 gram at rest. how fast would it have to be traveling to have the mass of a large suv, which is about 3000
Zigmanuir [339]

We solve this using special relativity. Special relativity actually places the relativistic mass to be the rest mass factored by a constant "gamma". The gamma is equal to 1/sqrt (1 - (v/c)^2). <span>

We want a ratio of 3000000 to 1, or 3 million to 1. 

</span>

<span>Therefore:
3E6 = 1/sqrt (1 - (v/c)^2) 
1 - (v/c)^2 = (0.000000333)^2 
0.99999999999999 = (v/c)^2 
0.99999999999999 = v/c 
<span>v= 99.999999999999% of the speed of light ~ speed of light
<span>v = 3 x 10^8 m/s</span></span></span>

sesenic [268]
Work formula:
W = F * d
F 1 = 40 N, d 1 = 6 m;
F 2 = 30 N; d 2 = 6 m.
W ( Cindy ) = 40 * 6 = 240 Nm
W ( Andy ) = 30 * 6 = 180 Nm
The difference of their amounts if work:
240 Nm - 180  Nm = 60 nm

hope it helps!

Three balls are in water. Ball 1 floats, with half of it exposed above the water level. Ball 2, with a density less than the den
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The magnitude of buoyancy force is equal to that of ball's weight.

Explanation:

Ball 1 is floating on water. Weight of ball 1 is Fg=m1g  is acting vertically downward

Force of buoyancy FB = ρVdisg is acting vertically upward.

Net force acting on the ball is zero, FB=Fg

Answer

The magnitude of buoyancy force is equal to that of ball's weight.

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

λ = 2042 nm

Explanation:

given data

screen distance d = 11 m

spot s = 4.5 cm = 4.5 ×10^{-2} m

separation L = 0.5 mm = 0.5 ×10^{-3} m

to find out

what is λ

solution

we will find first angle between first max and central bright

that is tan θ = s/d

tan θ = 4.5 ×10^{-2}  / 11

θ = 0.234

and we know diffraction grating for max

L sinθ  = mλ

here we know m = 1  so put all value and find λ

L sinθ  = mλ

0.5 ×10^{-3}  sin(0.234)  = 1 λ

λ = 2042.02 ×10^{-9}  m

λ = 2042 nm

A 2100 kg car starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.6 m/s2 for 4.0 s. Assume that the force acting to accelerate the c
Reika [66]
When the system is experiencing a uniformly accelerated motion, there are a set of equations to work from. In this case, work is energy which consist solely of kinetic energy. That is, 1/2*m*v2. First, let's find the final velocity.

a = (vf - v0)/t
2.6 = (vf - 0)/4
vf = 10.4 m/s

Then W = 1/2*(2100 kg)*(10.4 m/s)2
W = 113568 J = 113.57 kJ
