Answer:

8616.7468 \ kg/m^3

Explanation:

Pressure is measured is p=\rho gh here p is pressure \rho is density and h is height

We have given pressure p=9.891\times 10^4\ Pa acceleration due to gravity g=9.9870\ m/sec^2 height =1.163 m

\rho =\frac{p}{gh}=\frac{9.891\times 10^4}{9.870\times 1.163}=8616.7468 \ kg/m^3

Answer:

Density is 8669.44kg/m^3

Explanation:

At a location where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.807 m/s2, the atmospheric pressure is 9.891 × 104 Pa. A barometer at the same location is filled with an unknown liquid. What is the density of the unknown liquid if its height in the barometer is 1.163 m?

Solution

Pressure is the ratio of force per unit area. A barometer can used to derive the atmospheric pressure P in terms of the height h of the unknown liquid column.

Density is the ratio of mass to volume

Pressure is defined as

P=force/unit area

P=m*g/(A).......... 1

Recall that density=mass/volume.............2

Volume =A*h. Area *height

From equation 2

D=m/Ah

m=DAh...............3

Substituting equ 3 into 1

P=DAh *g/A

P=Dgh

9.891 × 10^4=D*1.163*9.81

D=9.891*10^(4)/(1.163*9.81)

D=8669.44kg/m^3

Density is 8669.44kg/m^3

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

m is the mass of object

m=\dfrac{W}{g}

m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}

m = 0.25 kg

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}

k = 24.09 N/m

or

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

As a blacksmith heats a piece of iron, the iron glows red, then yellow, then white. The iron provides a demonstration of which p
Nitella [24]
The answer is D. Blackbody radiation. The piece of iron glows red because its temperature is around 1000 K, then yellow because its temperature is around 2800 K, and then white because its temperature is around 5500K. This shows that the spectrum of the radiation is determined by absolute temperature, as when the temperature of a blackbody radiator increases, the peak of the radiation curve moves to shorter wavelengths.

FLASH FLOODS CAN CAUSE VEHICLES TO FLOAT AND FILL WITH WATER, TRAPPING AND DROWNING PEOPLE. WHILE ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT
levacccp [35]

Answer:

FLASH FLOODS CAN CAUSE VEHICLES TO FLOAT AND FILL WITH WATER, TRAPPING AND DROWNING PEOPLE. WHILE ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT AND IN DEEP WATER, EVEN ____ INCHES OF WATER CAN FLOAT SOME SMALL CARS.

The Answer is SIX Inches.

Explanation:

Flash floods: are short-term events and are associated with short, high-intensity rainfall which occur when creeks that are normally dry fill up and other creeks overflow. Densely populated areas have a high risk of flash floods. Water levels in flash floods can rise one foot in five minutes making Six inches of water able to reach the bottom of most passenger cars. Moving water will exert pressure on a car. The car floats downstream when stream force exceeds the friction force, the car will be carried when bouyancy force (which is the upward force exerted by any fluid upon a body placed in it) is greater than vehicle weight.

A runner runs 300 m at an average speed of 3.0 m/s. She then runs another 300m at an average
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

B. 4 m/s

Explanation:

v=d/t

Running for 300 m at 3 m/s takes 100 seconds and running at 300 m at 6 m/s takes 50 seconds. 100 s + 50 s = 150 s (total time). Total distance is 600 m, so 600 m/ 150 s = 4 m/s.

Optical tweezers use light from a laser to move single atoms and molecules around. Suppose the intensity of light from the tweez
Zanzabum

(a)  3.3\cdot 10^{-6} Pa

The radiation pressure exerted by an electromagnetic wave on a surface that totally absorbs the radiation is given by

p=\frac{I}{c}

where

I is the intensity of the wave

c is the speed of light

In this problem,

I=1000 W/m^2

and substituting c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s, we find the radiation pressure

p=\frac{1000 W/m^2}{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}=3.3\cdot 10^{-6}Pa

(b) 4.4\cdot 10^{-8} m/s^2

Since we know the cross-sectional area of the laser beam:

A=6.65\cdot 10^{-29}m^2

starting from the radiation pressure found at point (a), we can calculate the force exerted on a tritium atom:

F=pa=(3.3\cdot 10^{-6}Pa)(6.65\cdot 10^{-29} m^2)=2.2\cdot 10^{-34}N

And then, since we know the mass of the atom

m=5.01\cdot 10^{-27}kg

we can find the acceleration, by using Newton's second law:

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{2.2\cdot 10^{-34} N}{5.01\cdot 10^{-27} kg}=4.4\cdot 10^{-8} m/s^2
