The difference in heights of the liquid in the two sides of the manometer is 43.4 cm when the atmospheric pressure is 755 mm hg.

given that the density of mercury is 13.6 g/ml, the pressure of the enclosed gas is ________ atm.

The atmospheric P is greater than the P in the flask, since the Hg level is lacking down lower on the side open to the atmosphere.

43.4 cm x (10 mm / 1 cm) = 435 mm

the density of Hg is 13.6 / 0.791 = 17.2 times better than the liquid in the manometer. This means that 1 mmHg = 17.2 mm of manometer liquid.

435 mm manometer liquid x (1 mm Hg / 17.2 mm manometer liquid) = 25.3 mm Hg

The pressure in the flask is 755 - 25.3 = 729.7 mmHg.

729.7 mmHg x (1 atm / 760 mmHg ) = 0.960 atm.

Two objects are placed in thermal contact and are allowed to come to equilibrium in isolation. The heat capacity of Object A is

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat capacity A = 3 x heat capacity of B

initial temperature of A = 2 x initial temperature of B

TA = 2 TB

Let T be the final temperature of the system

Heat lost by A is equal to the heat gained by B

mass of A x specific heat of A x (TA - T) = mass of B x specific heat of B x ( T - TB)

heat capacity of A x ( TA - T) = heat capacity of B x ( T - TB)

3 x heat capacity of B x ( TA - T) = heat capacity of B x ( T - TB)

3 TA - 3 T = T - TB

6 TB + TB = 4 T

T = 1.75 TB

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. Match the sentences with the steps of the scientific method

Assoli18 [71]

Solution:

Make an Observation - An indoor plant in a dark room withers faster than the same plant in a room with ample sunlight.

Ask a question- Why do certain indoor plants die faster based on where they are placed in the house?

State a hypothesis- Sunlight is probably essential for plants to grow and live.

Run an experiment- Get two potted plants. Cover one with black paper. Place both plants outside in sunlight. See what happens to each plant after one week.

Analyze the results-The plant in the pot with black paper withered. The other plant was healthy.

Communicate the results to others - Plants need sunlight to make food so they can live.

A man stands on his balcony, 130 feet above the ground. He looks at the ground, with his sight line forming an angle of 70° with

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

d = 380 feet

Explanation:

Height of man = perpendicular= 130 feet

Angle of depression = ∅ = 70 °

distance to bus stop from man = hypotenuse = d = 130 sec∅

As sec ∅ = 1 / cos∅

so d = 130 sec∅ or d = 130 / cos∅

d = 130 / cos(70°)

d = 380 feet

: Two containers have a substantial amount of the air evacuated out of them so that the pressure inside is half the pressure at

ser-zykov [4K]

Complete Question

Two containers have a substantial amount of the air evacuated out of them so that the pressure inside is half the pressure at sea level. One container is in Denver at an altitude of about 6,000 ft and the other is in New Orleans (at sea level). The surface area of the container lid is A=0.0155 m. The air pressure in Denver is PD = 79000 Pa. and in New Orleans is PNo = 100250 Pa. Assume the lid is weightless.

Part (a) Write an expression for the force FNo required to remove the container lid in New Orleans.

Part (b) Calculate the force FNo required to lift off the container lid in New Orleans, in newtons.

Part (c) Calculate the force Fp required to lift off the container lid in Denver, in newtons.

Part (d) is more force required to lift the lid in Denver (higher altitude, lower pressure) or New Orleans (lower altitude, higher pressure)?

Answer:

a

The expression is $F_{No} = A [P_{No} - \frac{P_{sea}}{2}]$

b

$F_{No}= 7771.125 \ N$

c

$F_p = 2.2*10^{6} N$

d

From the value obtained we can say the that the force required to open the lid is higher at Denver

Explanation:

The altitude of container in Denver is $d_D = 6000 \ ft = 6000 * 0.3048 = 1828.8m$

The surface area of the container lid is $A = 0.0155m^2$

The altitude of container in New Orleans is sea-level

The air pressure in Denver is $P_D = 79000 \ Pa$

The air pressure in new Orleans is $P_{ro} = 100250 \ Pa$

Generally force is mathematically represented as

$F_{No} = \Delta P A$

So we are told the pressure inside is is half the pressure the at sea level so the the pressure acting on the container would

The pressure at sea level is a constant with a value of

$P_{sea} = 101000 Pa$

So the $\Delta P$ which is the difference in pressure within and outside the container is

$\Delta P = P_{No} - \frac{P_{sea}}{2}$

Therefore

$F_{No} = A [P_{No} - \frac{P_{sea}}{2}]$

Now substituting values

$F_{No} = 0.0155 [100250 - \frac{101000}{2}]$

$F_{No}= 7771.125 \ N$

The force to remove the lid in Denver is

$F_p = \Delta P_d A$

So we are told the pressure inside is is half the pressure the at sea level so the the pressure acting on the container would

The pressure at sea level is a constant with a value of

$P_{sea} = 101000 Pa$

At sea level the air pressure in Denver is mathematically represented as

$P_D = \rho g h$

=> $g = \frac{P_D}{\rho h}$

Let height at sea level is h = 1

The air pressure at height $d_D$

$P_d__{D}} = \rho gd_D$

=> $g = \frac{P_d_D}{\rho d_D}$

Equating the both

$\frac{P_D}{\rho h} = \frac{P_d_D}{\rho d_D}$

$P_d_D = P_D * d_D$

Substituting value

$P_d__{D}} = 1828.2 * 79000$

$P_d__{D}} = 1.445*10^{8} Pa$

So

$\Delta P_d = P_{d} _D - \frac{P_{sea}}{2}$

=> $\Delta P_d = 1.445 *10^{8} - \frac{101000}{2}$

$\Delta P_d = 1.44*10^{8}Pa$

So

$F_p = \Delta P_d A$

$= 1.44*10^8 * 0.0155$

$F_p = 2.2*10^{6} N$
