<span>Answer : P = 3527 Pa Explanation: Given : height, h = 279 m and density of air , Ď = 1.29 kg/m3 Change in pressure , P = h*Ď*g We know that gravity, g = 9.8 m/s2 Therefore P = 279 * 1.29 * 9.8 = 3527 Pa</span>

Think of something from everyday life that follows a two-dimensional path. It could be a kicked football, a bus that's turning a
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Let us consider the case of a bus turning around a corner with a constant velocity, as the bus approaches the corner, the velocity at say point A is Va, and is tangential to the curve with direction pointing away from the curve. Also, the velocity at another point say point B is Vb and is also tangential to the curve with direction pointing away from the curve.<em> </em><em>Although the velocity at point A and the velocity at point B have the same magnitude, their directions are different (velocity is a vector quantity), and hence we have a change in velocity. By definition, an acceleration occurs when we have a change in velocity, so the bus experiences an acceleration at the corner whose direction is away from the center of the corner</em>.

The acceleration is not aligned with the direction of travel because<em> the change in velocity is at a tangent (directed away) to the direction of travel of the bus.</em>

Hydraulic press is called an instrument for multiplication of force. Why?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Hydraulic press is called an instrument for multiplication of force. Why? Because it uses Pascal's idea and  principle: F=p*S. If we apply small force to small piston you will generate a pressure. According to Pascal's law pressure is the same everywhere in closed system so the same pressure will act on large piston on the other side too.

If a force always acts perpendicular to an object's direction of motion, that force cannot change the object's kinetic energy.
laiz [17]
This is very good conceptual question and can clear your doubts regarding work-energy theorem.
Whenever force is perpendicular to the direction of the motion, work done by that force is zero.
According to work-energy theorem,
Work done by all the force = change in kinetic energy.

here, work done = 0.
Therefore, 
0=change in kinetic energy
This means kinetic energy remains constant.
Hope this helps

1. A diffraction grating with 5.000 x 103 lines/cm is used to examine the sodium
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

0.0002°, 0.1691°, 0.338°

Explanation:

Difference between the two line = 5.97 * 10-⁸m

d = 1 / N

N = 5.0 * 10³

d = 2.0 * 10⁴m

nL = Nsin¤

For first order

588.995 * 10-⁹ = 2.0 * 10-⁴ sin ¤

Sin¤ = 2.944*10-³

¤ = sin-¹ 0.002944

¤ = 0.1687°

First order ¤ =

Sin-¹(589.592*-⁹ / 2.0 * 10-⁴)

Sin-¹ (0.002947) = 0.1689°

Angular separation = 0.1689 - 0.1687 = 0.0002°

Second order ¤ = sin-¹ [2 (589.59*10-⁹ / 2.0*10-⁴)] = sin-¹ (0.005895)

Second order ¤ = 0.3378°

Angular difference = 0.3378° - 0.1687° = 0.1691°

Third order ¤ = sin-¹ [3(589.59*10-⁹ /2.0*10-⁴] = 0.5067°

Angular difference = 0.5067° - 0.1687° = 0.338°
