One of the largest barometers ever built was an oil-filled barometer constructed in Leicester, England in 1991. The oil had a he

Answer:

ρ = 830.32 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given that

Oil head = 12.2 m

h= 12.2 m

Pressure P = 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa

Lets take density of the liquid =ρ

The pressure due to liquid P given as

P = ρ g h

Now by putting the all values in the above equation

1.013 x 10⁵ Pa = ρ x 10 x 12.2                 ( take g =10 m/s²)

ρ = 830.32 kg/m³

Therefore the density of oil is 830.32  kg/m³

Energy conservation with conservative forces: Two identical balls are thrown directly upward, ball A at speed v and ball B at sp
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

E) True.   Ball B will go four times as high as ball A because it had four times the initial kinetic energ

Explanation:

To answer the final statements, let's pose the solution of the exercise

Energy is conserved

Initial

          Em₀ = K

          Em₀ = ½ m v²

Final

         Emf = U = mg h

         Em₀ = emf

        ½ m v² = mgh

        h = v² / 2g

For ball A

         h_A = v² / 2g

For ball B

        h_B = (2v)² / 2g

        h_B = 4 (v² / 2g) = 4 h_A

Let's review the claims

A) False. The neck acceleration is zero, it has the value of the acceleration of gravity

B) False. Ball B goes higher

C) False  has 4 times the gravitational potential energy than ball A

D) False.  It goes 4 times higher

E) True.

Find the kinetic of a 0.1 kilogram toy truck moving at a speed of 1.1 meters per second
omeli [17]
KE = kinetic energy
PE = potential energy
GPE = gravitational potential energy
energy is always measured in Joules (J)

KE = (0.5) times the mass times the velocity^2
square the velocity first

Mass = (KE x 2) / v^2
square the velocity first, then double the kinetic energy, then divide
mass is measured in kg

velocity = sqrt(KE x 2 / m)
velocity can be called speed, like in the the second problem
remember to find the square root after you double the KE and divide that by the mass.
for example: if after you doubled KE and divided it by the mass you got sqrt(20), the answer would be about 4.47

GPE = mass x gravitational pull (about 9.8 m/s^2 on earth) x height

height = (PE) / (g x m)
do g x m first

So for question 1:
KE = (0.5)0.1 x 1.1^2
always square the velocity first:
KE = (0.5)0.1 x 1.21
KE = 0.0605
so if you rounded it to the nearest hundreths you would get KE = 0.06 J
don't forget the unit of energy is in Joules

An object weighs 200 newtons at a distance of 100 kilometers above the center of a small uniform planet. how much will the objec
disa [49]

Since the law of gravitation is an inverse square law if you quadruple the radius the f will drop by a factor of 16 SO the object would weigh 200/16 = 12.5N

In other words, as the distance, or radius, quadruples the weight becomes 1/16 of the original weight. Just plug in 4 for r and when you square it you get 16. The numerator is 1 so that is how the weight becomes 1/16.

What is the depth of the crater if the time is 6.3 s? An astronaut stands by the rim of a crater on the moon, where the accelera
ollegr [7]

Complete Question

An astronaut stands by the rim of a crater on the moon, where the acceleration of gravity is 1.62 m/s2. To determine the depth of the crater, she drops a rock and measures the time it takes for it

to hit the bottom. If the time is 6.3 s, what is the depth of the crater?

Answer:

The depth is 32 m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  time is  t =  6.3 s

  The acceleration due to gravity is  g =  1.62 \  m/s^2

 

Generally from kinematic equation

    s = ut + \frac{1}{2}  - at^2

Here the u is the initial  velocity and the value is  0 m/s

      s = 0 + \frac{1}{2}  - (1.62) * (6.3)^2

        s = 32 \ m
