A glass tube in the shape of a letter J has the shorter limb sealed and the longer limb open. Mercury is poured into the tube until the levels in either limb is the same when the tube is vertical.In this position, the length of the air column in the sealed limb is 6.3cm.More mercury is then poured into the tube until the length of the trapped air column is 42cm.Calculate the difference in the levels of mercury in the limbs if a nearby mercury barometer reads 75.0cm and the reading of a nearby thermometer has not changed?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

35.4 cm

Explanation:

We have that when the level of mercury on either limb is the same, the pressure of the trapped air, P₁ = Atmospheric pressure

Also the initial height of the mercury in the tube = The reading of the barometer = 75.0 cm

The initial length of the air column, l₁ = 6.3 cm

The final length of the air column, l₂ = 4.2 cm (The length is expected to decrease due to compression)

The volume, V = l × A

Where;

A = The cross sectional area of the tube

Therefore, the volume of the air column is directly proportional to the length of the air column

∴ V ∝ l

According to Boyles law, we have;

P₁·V₁ = P₂·V₂

Where;

P₁ = The initial pressure in the air column before more mercury is added

V₁ = The initial volume occupied by the air in the air column

P₂, and V₂ are the final pressure and volume of the air column respectively

Given that V = l·A, we can write;

P₁·l₁·A = P₂·l₂·A

P₂ = P₁·l₁·A/(l₂·A) = P₁·l₁/(l₂) = P₁ × 6.3/4.2 = 1.5·P₁

The pressure in the air column after more mercury is added, P₂ = 1.5 × P₁

P₁ = Atmospheric pressure, therefore;

The pressure in the air column after more mercury is added, P₂ = 1.5 × Atmospheric pressure

Pressure = h·ρ·g

Where;

ρ = The density of the substance

g = The acceleration due to gravity

h = The height of the column of the fluid

Given that the density and the gravitational force, can be taken as constant, we have that the pressure of the fluid is directly proportional to the height of the fluid column

Therefore, when the pressure doubles, the height of the fluid column doubles, and when the factor of increase is 1.5, we have;

The final level of the mercury, h₂ = 1.5·h₁ = 1.5×75 cm = 112.5 cm

The initial length of the closed end of the J tube, [tex]h_{closed1}[/tex] = 6.3 cm + 75 cm = 81.3 cm

The final length of the mercury in the closed end, [tex]h_{closed2}[/tex] = 81.3 cm - 4.2 cm = 77.1 cm

The difference in the level of mercury, Δh = h₂ - [tex]h_{closed2}[/tex]

∴ Δh = 112.5 cm - 77.1 cm = 35.4 cm

The difference in the levels of mercury in the limbs, Δh = 35.4 cm

Lightning a. occurs when a positively charged cloud base induces a negative charge on the Earth's surface. b. travels most often from cloud to ground and cannot travel from cloud to cloud. c. may be accompanied by the sound of explosively expanding hot air, called thunder. d. involves a conductive path or leader of positive ions from cloud to ground.

Answers

Answer:

c. may be accompanied by the sound of explosively expanding hot air, called thunder.

Explanation:

Lightning is a discharge which is due to the reaction between oppositely charged charges in the clouds, or between clouds base and the Earth surface.

The motion of the cloud causes charging of clouds by friction, thus the reaction between opposite charges (jumping of charges from one cloud to another) in the cloud can lead to lightning. Also, oftentimes the bottom of a cloud is negatively charged so that this is attracted to the positive charge on the earth surface. Thus leading to a discharge called lightning.

Thus in the given question, the appropriate option is C. This implies that, lightning may be accompanied by the sound of explosively expanding hot air, called thunder.

A car has a mass of 2000 kg. While it is traveling along a perfectly flat road, it goes around an unbanked turn that has a radius of 40.0 m. The coefficient of static friction between the car tires and the road is 0.500. The car travels successfully around the turn at a constant speed of 10.0 m/s. Calculate the magnitude of the car's acceleration as it goes around the turn. _______ m/s^2

Answers

Answer:

2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the car, m = 2,000 kg

The radius of the car, r = 40.0 m

The coefficient of friction between the car tires and the road, μ = 0.500

The constant speed with which the car moves, v = 10.0 m/s

The normal reaction of the road on the car, N = The weight of the car;

∴ N = m × g

Where;

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

N ≈ 2,000 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 19,620 N

The frictional force, [tex]F_f[/tex] = μ × N

The centripetal force, [tex]F_c[/tex] = m·v²/r

The car moves without slipping when [tex]F_f[/tex] = [tex]F_c[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]F_f[/tex] = 0.500 × 19,620 N = 2,000 kg × [tex]v_{max}[/tex]²/40.0 m

∴ [tex]v_{max}[/tex] = √(0.500 × 19,620 N × 40.0 m/2,000 kg) ≈ 14.007 m/s

Therefore, the velocity with which the car moves, v < [tex]v_{max}[/tex]

The cars centripetal acceleration, [tex]a_c[/tex] = v²/r

∴ [tex]a_c[/tex] = (10.0 m/s)²/40.0 m = 2.5 m/s²

The cars centripetal acceleration as it goes round the turn, [tex]a_c[/tex] = 2.5 m/s².

Hideki had normal vision for most of his life, but now that he is in his 60s, he has started to have difficulty focusing on near objects. He went to an optometrist, who explained that his vision problem was the result of the lenses in his eyes losing elasticity due to aging. Which condition does Hideki have

Answers

Answer:

He is suffering from hypermetropia.

Explanation:

There are some defects of vision.

Longsightedness of hypermetropia : It is the defect of vision in which the person is not able to see the nearby objects clearly but can see the far off objects clearly. This is due to the elongation of size of eye ball. It is cured by using convex lens of suitable focal length.

Nearsightedness or Myopia : It is the defect of vision in which a person is not able to see the far off objects clearly but can see the nearby objects clearly. It is due to the contraction in the size of eye ball. It is cured by using concave lens of suitable focal length.

So, Hideki is suffering from hypermetropia. So, he should use the convex lens of suitable focal length.

A water heater marked 4 kW takes 4 minutes to heat 1 kg of water from 20 °C to 50 °C. The cost of electrical energy per kWh
is $0.120. What will be the total cost of energy consumption?

Answers

The total cost of the energy consumption for the given time period is $0.0364

The given parameters include;

power rating of the heater, P = 4 kW = 4000 Wtime taken to completely boil the water,[tex]t = 4 \min = 4 \min \times \frac{1 \ h}{60 \ \min} = 0.067 \ h[/tex]mass of the water, m = 1 kginitial temperature of the water, t₁ = 20 ⁰Cfinal temperature of the water, t₂ = 50 ⁰Cspecific heat capacity of water, c = 4200 J/kg⁰Ccost of electrical energy = $0.12

The total energy consumed in the process of heating the water;

Total electrical Energy  = Energy of the heater (kWh) + Energy of the heated water (kWh)

Energy of the heater (kWh) = power x time

                                = 4 kW x 0.067 h

                                 = 0.268 kWh

Energy of the heated water (J) = mcΔt

where;

Δt is the change in temperature = t₂ - t₁

                                                      = 50 ⁰C  -  20 ⁰C = 30⁰C

Energy of the heated water (J) = 1 x 4200 x 30

                                               = 126,000 J

Electrical power of the heated water (Watts) = [tex]\frac{126,000 \ J}{4 \ \min} \times \frac{1 \min}{60 \ s} = 525 \ W[/tex]

Energy of the heated water (kWh) = [tex]\frac{525}{1000} \times 4\min\times \frac{1 \ hr}{60 \min} = 0.035 \ kWh[/tex]

Total electrical Energy  = 0.268 kWh  +  0.035 kWh

                                       = 0.303 kWh

The total cost of the energy consumed is calculated as;

[tex]Total \ cost = \frac{\$ \ 0.12}{kWh} \times 0.303 \ kWh = \$ \ 0.0364[/tex]

Therefore, the total cost of the energy consumption is $0.0364

A bucket filled woth water seems light while it sinks into water.Also show their relation using formula

Answers

Answer: This phenomenon happens due to upthrust exerted by water.

Explanation:

We know that,

Liquid Pressure is directly proportional to the height of the vertical column in the liquid.(P∝h)

When a bucket filled water is sunk into the water container, there occur difference in the pressure in top and bottom of the water container. Due to this, water exerts an upward force on the bucket filled with water. This is called Uprthrust.

Upthrust on the bucket makes the bucket filled with water lose some of it's weight and causes apparent loss in weight.

Hence, the bucket filled with water seems light while it sinks into water.

(b) 1/sinƟ
(c) cosƟ
(d) 1/cosƟ
(e) sinƟcosƟ

Answers

Answer:

(b) 1/sinƟ

Explanation:

A simple machine can be defined as a type of machine with no moving parts but can be used to perform work.

Basically, a simple machine allows for the transformation of energy into work. The six simple machines are; lever, wedge, pulley, screw, wheel and axle, and inclined plane.

Inclined plane is a simple machine set at an angle and then used to lift an object.

In Physics, the velocity ratio of a simple machine is calculated as a ratio of the distance moved by the effort to the vertical distance through which a load is raised.

Mathematically, the velocity ratio of an inclined plane of angle Ɵ, acting as a simple machine is given by the formula;

Velocity ratio (V.R) = 1/sinƟ

Basically, an increase in the angle of inclination (measured in degrees) of an inclined plane increases its velocity ratio.
