A mercury thermometer has a glass bulb of interior volume 0.100 cm3 at 10°c. the glass capillary 10) tube above the bulb has an

inner cross-sectional area of 0.012 mm2. the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 1.8 × 10-4 k-1. if the expansion of the glass is negligible, how much will the mercury rise in the capillary tube when the temperature rises from 5°c to 35°c if the bulb was full at 5°c?

Initial volume of mercury is
V = 0.1 cm³

The temperature rise is 35 - 5 = 30 ⁰C = 30 ⁰K.

Because the coefficient of volume expansion is 1.8x10⁻⁴ 1/K, the change in volume of the mercury is
ΔV = (1.8x10⁻⁴ 1/K)*(30 ⁰K)(0.1 cm³) = 5.4x10⁻⁴ cm³

The cross sectional area of the tube is
A = 0.012 mm² = (0.012x10⁻² cm²).
Therefore the rise of mercury in the tube is
h = ΔV/A
= (5.4x10⁻⁴ cm³)/(0.012x10⁻² cm²)
= 4.5 cm

Answer: 4.5 cm

This problem is about Density.

Density is the ratio of mass to the volume of the object.

$\large {\boxed {\rho = \frac{ m }{ V } } }$

<em>ρ = density of object ( kg / m³ )</em>

<em>m = mass of object ( kg )</em>

<em>V = volume of object ( m³ )</em>

$\texttt{ }$

The volume expansion of object could be calculated using this following formula.

$\boxed {V = Vo ( 1 + 3 \alpha \Delta t )}$

where:

<em>V = final volume after expansion ( m³ )</em>

<em>Vo = initial volume before expansion ( m³ )</em>

<em>α = coefficient of expansion ( /K )</em>

<em>Δt = change in temperature ( K )</em>

<em>Let's tackle the problem!</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<u>Given:</u>

initial volume = Vo = 0.100 cm³

cross-sectional area = A = 0.012 mm² = 0.012 × 10⁻² cm²

coefficient of volume expansion of mercury = γ = 1.8 × 10⁻⁴ /K

change in temperature = Δt = 35 - 5 = 30°C

<u>Asked:</u>

the rise of mercury column = h = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

$h = \Delta V \div A$

$h = (V_o \gamma \Delta t) \div A$

$h = (0.100 \times 1.8 \times 10^{-4} \times 30) \div (0.012 \times 10^{-2})$

$h = 4.5 \texttt{ cm}$

DESPERATEA rocket of mass 40 000 kg takes off and flies to a height of 2.5 km as its engines produce 500 000 N of thrust.

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

i=1250000000Nm

ii=50000m/s

Explanation:

energy=force ×distance

500000N×(2.5×1000)m

=1250000000Nm

ii. Force=mass ×acceleration

500000N =40000kg ×a

500000 ÷40000=12.5a

s=1/2at^2

2500m=1/2×12.5×t^2

2500m=6.25×t^s

2500÷6.25=400

t^2=400

√t^2=√400

t=20seconds

speed=distance ×time taken

=2500m × 20s

=50000m/s

A 8kg cat is running 4m/s. how much kinetic energy does it have?

Daniel [21]

The formula for kinetic energy is, ${ E }_{ k }=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \cdot m\cdot { v }^{ 2 }$
where m is mass and v is velocity.

Let's plug the given values in the formula.

${ E }_{ k }=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \cdot m\cdot { v }^{ 2 }\\ \\ { E }_{ k }=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \cdot 8\cdot { 4 }^{ 2 }\\ \\ { E }_{ k }=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \cdot 8\cdot 16\\ \\ { E }_{ k }=4\cdot 16\\ \\ { E }_{ k }=64\quad \\ \\$

It's kinetic energy is 64 Joules.

Coherent red light of wavelength λ = 700 nm is incident on two very narrow slits. The light has the same phase at both slits. (a

oksano4ka [1.4K]

(a) 0.028 rad

The angular separation of the nth-maximum from the central maximum in a diffraction from two slits is given by

$d sin \theta = n \lambda$

where

d is the distance between the two slits

$\theta$ is the angular separation

n is the order of the maximum

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

In this problem,

$\lambda=700 nm=7\cdot 10^{-7} m$

$d=0.025 mm=2.5\cdot 10^{-5} m$

The maximum adjacent to the central maximum is the one with n=1, so substituting into the formula we find

$sin \theta = \frac{n \lambda}{d}=\frac{(1)(7\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{2.5\cdot 10^{-5} m}=0.028$

So the angular separation in radians is

$\theta= sin^{-1} (0.028) = 0.028 rad$

(b) 0.028 m

The screen is located 1 m from the slits:

D = 1 m

The distance of the screen from the slits, D, and the separation between the two adjacent maxima on the screen (let's call it y) form a right triangle, so we can write the following relationship:

$\frac{y}{D}=tan \theta$

And so we can find y:

$y=D tan \theta = (1 m) tan (0.028 rad)=0.028 m$

(c) $2.8\cdot 10^{-4} rad$

In this case, we can apply again the formula used in part a), but this time the separation between the slits is

$d=2.5 mm = 0.0025 m$

so we find

$sin \theta = \frac{n \lambda}{d}=\frac{(1)(7\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{0.0025 m}=2.8\cdot 10^{-4}$

And so we find

$\theta= sin^{-1} (2.8\cdot 10^{-4}) = 2.8\cdot 10^{-4} rad$

(d) $7.0\cdot 10^{-6} m = 7.0 \mu m$

This part can be solved exactly as part b), but this time the distance of the screen from the slits is

$D=25 mm=0.025 m$

So we find

$y=D tan \theta = (0.025 m) tan (2.8\cdot 10^{-4} rad)=7.0\cdot 10^{-6} m = 7.0 \mu m$

(e) The maxima will be shifted, but the separation would remain the same

In this situation, the waves emitted by one of the slits are shifted by $\pi$ (which corresponds to half a cycle, so half wavelength) with respect to the waves emitted by the other slit.

This means that the points where previously there was constructive interference (the maxima on the screen) will now be points of destructive interference (dark fringes); on the contrary, the points where there was destructive interference before (dark fringes) will now be points of maxima (bright fringes). Therefore, all the maxima will be shifted.

However, the separation between two adjacent maxima will not change. In fact, tall the maxima will change location exactly by the same amount; therefore, their relative distance will remain the same.

A ray diagram without the produced image is shown.

Mashutka [201]

The answer is real and smaller than the object. The image point of the top of the object is the point where the two refracted rays intersect. Tracing the entire image having the same distance from the mirror as the image of the top of the object and with the bottom on the principal axis. Hence, a real inverted image will be formed for an object outside the focal point.

Describe 3 ways that wind erosion moves sediment

Pepsi [2]

Suspension, saltation, and surface creep are the three types of soil movement which occur during wind erosion. While soil can be blown away at virtually any height, the majority (over 93%) of soil movement takes place at or below one meter.

Suspension occurs when very fine dirt and dust particles are lifted into the wind. They can be thrown into the air through impact with other particles or by the wind itself. Once in the atmosphere, these particles can be carried very high and be transported over extremely long distances. Soil moved by suspension is the most spectacular and easiest to recognize of the three forms of movement.

Saltation - The major fraction of soil moved by the wind is through the process of saltation. In saltation, fine soil particles are lifted into the air by the wind and drift horizontally across the surface increasing in velocity as they go. Soil particles moved in this process of saltation can cause severe damage to the soil surface and vegetation. They travel approximately four times longer in distance than in height. When they strike the surface again they either rebound back into the air or knock other particles into the air.

Creep - The large particles which are too heavy to be lifted into the air are moved through a process called surface creep. In this process, the particles are rolled across the surface after coming into contact with the soil particles in saltation.

Hope this helps
