Explanation:
imagine a column of water of 1 m² that starts at the surface of the ocean, which goes straight down 700m.
You need to calculate the pressure induced by only the column of water.
Please understand that the total pressure is found by adding the pressure of the column of water AND that of the pressure of the atmosphere.
p = F/A
p = pressure in Pa
F = Force in N
A = area in m²
To calculate the Force that gravity has on that column of water, you simply use:
F = m * g
where g = 9.81 kgm/s²
So first you need to calculate the mass of the column sea water with a density of 1.024*10³ kg/m³
A student releases a marble from the top of a ramp. The marble increases
speed while on the ramp then continues across the floor. The marble travels a
total of 160cm in 4.60s.
What was the marble's final speed?
cm/s
HELP PLEASE
Answer:
Vf = 69.56 cm/s
Explanation:
In order to find the final speed of the ramp, we will use the equations of motion. First we use second equation of motion to find out the acceleration of marble:
s = Vi t + (1/2)at²
where,
s = distance traveled = 160 cm
Vi = Initial Speed = 0 cm/s (since, marble starts from rest)
t = time interval = 4.6 s
a = acceleration = ?
Therefore,
160 cm = (0 cm/s)(4.6 s) + (1/2)(a)(4.6 s)²
a = (320 cm)/(4.6 s)²
a = 15.12 cm/s²
Now, we use first equation of motion:
Vf = Vi + at
Vf = 0 cm/s + (15.12 cm/s²)(4.6 s)
Vf = 69.56 cm/s
A car moves in a straight line at a speed of 72.1 km/h.
How far (in km) will the car move in 7.74 minutes at this speed?
Speed=distance/time.
7.74mins=464.4secs.
72.1=distance/464.4.
distance=464.4×7.21.
=3348.324m.

A speeder passes a parked police car with a speed of 65 km/h in a 50km/h zone. One second after the speeder has passed the police car, the police begin his pursuit. The police car accelerates with constant acceleration of 2m/s^2.Required:a. How long does it take for the police to catch the speeding car? b. How far did the police car travel before police caught up with the speeder? c. What is the speed of the police car when catches up with the speeder?
Answer:
a) The police will take 18.056 seconds to catch the speedy car, b) The police will travel 326.019 meters before catching the speedy car, c) The speed of the police car when catches up with the speeder is 36.112 meters per second.
Explanation:
Let suppose that speeder moves in a uniform motion, whereas police car has an uniformly accelerated motion.
a) How long does it take for the police to catch the speeding car:
Kinematic equation of each vehicle's position are described:
Speeder
[tex]s_{A} = s_{A,o}+v_{A}\cdot t[/tex]
Police Car
[tex]s_{B} = s_{B,o}+v_{B,o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{B}\cdot t^{2}[/tex]
If [tex]s_{A} = s_{B}[/tex], [tex]s_{A,o} = s_{B,o}[/tex], [tex]v_{A} = 18.056\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]v_{B,o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]a_{B} = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], the resulting expression is done:
[tex]v_{A} \cdot t = v_{B,o}\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{B}\cdot t^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{B}\cdot t^{2}+(v_{B,o}-v_{A})\cdot t = 0[/tex]
[tex]t \cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{B}\cdot t +v_{B,o}-v_{A} \right)= 0[/tex]
[tex]t = 0\,s\,\wedge\, t = \frac{2\cdot (v_{A}-v_{B,o})}{a_{B}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{2\cdot \left(18.056\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)}{2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }[/tex]
[tex]t = 18.056\,s[/tex]
The police will take 18.056 seconds to catch the speedy car.
b) How far did the police car travel before police caught up with the speeder?
The distance travelled by the police is: ([tex]s_{B,o} = 0\,m[/tex], [tex]a_{B} = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], [tex]v_{B,o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]t = 18.056\,s[/tex])
[tex]s_{B} = 0\,m + \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (18.056\,s)+\frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (18.056\,s)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]s_{B} = 326.019\,m[/tex]
The police will travel 326.019 meters before catching the speedy car.
c) What is the speed of the police car when catches up with the speeder?
The speed of the police car is represented by the following formula:
[tex]v_{B} = v_{B,o} + a_{B}\cdot t[/tex]
Where [tex]v_{B}[/tex] is the speed of the police car, measured in meters per second.
Given that [tex]v_{B,o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]t = 18.056\,s[/tex] and [tex]a_{B} = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], the final speed of the police car when catches up with the speeder is:
[tex]v_{B} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (18.056\,s)[/tex]
[tex]v_{B} = 36.112\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The speed of the police car when catches up with the speeder is 36.112 meters per second.

A particle is moving along a straight line through a fluid medium such that its speed is measured as v = (2t) m/s, where t is in seconds. If it is released from rest at s = 0, determine its positions and acceleration when t = 3 s.
Answer:
The acceleration of the particle is 2 m/s²
The position of the particle is 9m
Explanation:
Given;
particles velocity, v = 2t m/s
The acceleration of the particle is given by;
a = dv/dt
a = d(2t) /dt
a = 2 m/s²
The acceleration of the particle is 2 m/s²
The position of the particle is given by;
s = ut + ¹/₂at²
Since the particle was released from rest, u = 0
s = 0(3) + ¹/₂(2)(3)²
s = 0 + 9 m
The position of the particle when t = 3 s is 9m

What must the charge (sign and magnitude) of a particle of mass 1.50 gg be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward-directed electric field of magnitude 670 N/CN/C ?
Answer:
q = -2.19 x 10⁻⁵ C
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the particle, m = 1.5 g = 0.0015 kg
magnitude of electric field, E = 670 N/C
Electric field is given by;
[tex]E = \frac{F}{q}[/tex]
where;
q is the magnitude of the
f is the force of the charge
f = mg
[tex]E = \frac{F}{q}\\\\E = \frac{mg}{q}\\\\q = \frac{mg}{E}\\\\q = \frac{0.0015*9.8}{670} \\\\q = 2.19*10^{-5} \ C[/tex]
Since the electric field is acting downward, the force on the charge must be acting upward. Therefore, the charge must be negative
q = -2.19 x 10⁻⁵ C
What is the final velocity of a 1400 kg drag racer that’s engine applies 910000 N of Force for 120m
Answer:
468,000,000 m/sExplanation:
According to newtons first law of motion;
Force = mass * acceleration
F = ma
where a = v-u/t
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
F = m(v-u/t)
Ft = m(v-u)
Given parameters;
F = 910,000N
t = 120m = 120 *60 = 7200secs
m = 1400kg
u = 0m/s
Required parameter
Final velocity v
Substituting the given parameters into the formula to get v;
Ft = m(v-u)
910,000 * 72000 = 1400(v-0)
910,000 * 72000 = 1400v
v = (910,000 * 72000)/1400
v = 910,000 * 720/14
v = 910,000 * 60
v = 468,000,000 m/s
Hence the final velocity of the drag racer is 468,000,000 m/s

In an evironmental system of subsystem, the mass balance equation is:__________.
Answer:
Explanation:
The mass balance is an application of conservation of mass, to the analysis of physical system. This is given in an equation form as
Input = Output + Accumulation
The conservation law that is used in this analysis of the system actually depends on the context of the problem. Nevertheless, they all revolve around conservation of mass. By conservation of mass, I mean that the fact that matter cannot disappear or be created spontaneously.
A 130 g copper bowl contains 100 g of water, both at 20.0°C. A very hot 420 g copper cylinder is dropped into the water, causing the water to boil, with 8.63 g being converted to steam. The final temperature of the system is 100°C. Neglect energy transfers with the environment. (a) How much energy is transferred to the water as heat? (b) How much to the bowl? (c) What is the original temperature of the cylinder? The specific heat of water is 1 cal/g·K, and of copper is 0.0923 cal/g·K. The latent heat of vaporization of water is 539 Cal/kg.
Answer:
a) 4652 cal
b) 8000 cal
Explanation:
Amount of heat transferred
Q1 = mL(v)
Q1 = 8.63 * 539
Q1 = 4652 cal
Amount of heat transferred to the water
Q2 = mcΔT
Q2 = 100 * 1 * (100 - 20)
Q2 = 8000 cal
Q = Q1 + Q2
Q = 4652 + 8000
Q = 12652 cal
b)
Heat transferred to the copper bowl
Q(b) = m(b) * c(b) * ΔT
Q(b) = 0.13 * 0.0923 * (100 - 20)
Q(b) = 0.96 cal
c)
Original heat of the cylinder
Q(c) = Q + Q(b)
m(c) * c(c) * ΔT = Q + Q(b), making ΔT subject of the formula
ΔT = (Q + Q(b))/ (m(c) * c(c))
ΔT = (12652 + 0.96) / (0.42 * 1)
ΔT = 12652.96/0.42
ΔT = 30126.1
A substan e has a melting point of 20◦C and a heat of fusion of 3.5 × 104 J/kg. The boiling point is 150◦C and the heat of vaporization is 7.0 × 104 J/kg at a pressure of 1.0 atm. The spe i heats for the solid, liquid, and gaseous phases are 600 J/(kg.K), 1000 J/(kg.K), and 400 J/(kg.K), respe tively. The quantity of heat given up by 0.50 kg of the substan e when it is ooled from 170◦C to 88◦C, at a pressure of 1.0 atmosphere, is losest to (1) 70 kJ (2) 14 kJ (3) 21 kJ (4) 30 kJ (5) None of the above.
Answer: Option (1) 70 kJ
Explanation:
Given that;
melting point of the substance T₁ is 20°C , Boiling point of the substance T₂ is 150°C , heat of fusion L₁ is 3.5 x 10⁴ J/kg , heat of vaporization L₂ is 7 x 10⁴ J/kg , Specific heat in solid state C₁ is 600 J/kg.K , Specific heat in liquid state C₂ is 1000 J/kg.K, Specific heat in gaseous state C₃ is 400 J/(kg.K) , Mass of the substance m is 0.5 kg , Initial temperature of the substance T₃ is 170°C , Final temperature of the substance T₄ is 88°C .
Now Heat given up by the substance to reach boiling point 150°C is
Q₁ = mC₃(T₃ - T₂)
Q₁ = (0.5)(400)(170 - 150)
Q₁ = 4000 J
Heat given up by the substance to turn into liquid from gaseous state at 150°C
Q₂ = mL₂
Q₂ = (0.5)(7x10⁴)
Q₂ = 35000 J
Heat given up by the substance to reach 88°C in liquid state from 150°C
Q₃ = mC₂(T₂ - T₄)
Q₃ = (0.5)(1000)(150 - 88)
Q₃ = 31000 J
Total heat given up by the substance
Q = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃
Q = 4000 + 35000 + 31000
Q = 70000 J
Q = 70 kJ
Therefore The quantity of heat given up by 0.50 kg of the substance when it is cooled from 170◦C to 88◦C, at a pressure of 1.0 atmosphere, is closest to 70 kJ
You and a friend are doing the laundry when you unload the dryer and the discussion comes around to static electricity. Your friend wants to get some idea of the amount of charge that causes static cling. You immediately take two empty soda cans, which each have a mass of 120 grams, from the recycling bin. You tie the cans to the two ends of a string (one to each end) and hang the center of the string over a nail sticking out of the wall. Each can now hangs straight down 30 cm from the nail. You take your flannel shirt from the dryer and touch it to the cans, which are touching each other. The cans move apart until they hang stationary at an angle of 10 degrees from the vertical.
Assuming that there are equal amounts of charge on each can, you now calculate the amount of charge transferred from your shirt.
Answer:
Q_total = 2 10⁻⁶ C
Explanation:
Let's apply the conditions of static equilibrium to this case, in the adjoint we can see a diagram of the forces.
X axis
Tₓ - Fe = 0
Tₓ = Fe
Y axis
[tex]T_{y}[/tex] - W = 0
T_{y} = W
Let's use trigonometry to find the stress components, the angle is measured with respect to the vertical
sin 10 = Tₓ / T
cos 10 = T_{y} / T
Tₓ = T sin 10
T_{y} = T cos 10
we substitute
T sin 10 = Fe
T cos 10 = W
T = mg / cos10
T = 0.120 9.8 / cos 10
T = 1,194 N
Fe = 1,194 sin 10
Fe = 0.2073 N
the electric force is
F = k q₁q₂ / r²
in this case, as the cans touch, they have the same charge and the distance r is searched for by trigonometry
sin 10 = y / L
y = L sin 10
y = 0.30 sin 10
y = 0.052 m
this is the distance from the vertical to one can the distance between the two cans is
y_total = 2y
y_totlal = 2 0.052 = 0.104 m
Fe = F = k q² / r²
q = √ (F r² / k)
q = √ (0.2073 0.104²/9 10⁹) = √ (24.913 10⁻¹⁴)
q = 4.99 10⁻⁷ C
This is the charge of a can, as the transfer is carried out by contact, the flannel transfers half of its charge to the cans and these when separating face one keeps half of the transferred charge, therefore the total charge of the flannel is
Q_total = 4 q
Q_total = 19.97 10⁻⁷ C
Q_total = 2 10⁻⁶ C

If three resistors 2ohm, 3ohm and 4ohm are connected in a circuit. Calculate the equivalent resistance of the combination
You haven't described whether they're connected in series or in parallel. Actually, there are eight (8) different ways they can be arranged, and each way has a different equivalent resistance.
==> All 3 resistors in series. Equivalent resistance = (2+3+4) = 9.000 ohms
==> All 3 resistors in parallel.
Equivalent resistance = 1 / (1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4) = (12/13) ohm or 0.923 ohm
==> The 2 ohm resistor in series with (the 3 and the 4 in parallel)
Equivalent resistance = 2 + 1/(1/3 + 1/4) = 3.714 ohms
==> The 3 ohm resistor in series with (the 2 and the 4 in parallel)
Equivalent resistance = 3 + 1/(1/2 + 1/4) = 4.333 ohms
==> The 4 ohm resistor in series with (the 2 and the 3 in parallel)
Equivalent resistance = 4 + 1/(1/2 + 1/3) = 5.200 ohms
==> The 2 ohm resistor in parallel with (the 3 and the 4 in series)
Equivalent resistance = 1.556 ohms
==> The 3 ohm resistor in parallel with (the 2 and the 4 in series)
Equivalent resistance = 2.000 ohms
==> The 4 ohm resistor in parallel with (the 2 and the 3 in series)
Equivalent resistance = 2.222 ohms

Consider an embedded system which uses a battery with a 17.15-Amp-Hour capacity. What is the maximum average current draw (in micro Amps to one decimal place) that your embedded processor can have if you want the battery to last 23 years without being replaced
Answer:
85.12 μAmp
Explanation:
The battery power output = 17.15 Amp-hr
If the battery is to last 23 years, we have to calculate how many hours there are in 23 years
in one year there are 24 hours x 365 day = 8760 hrs
in 23 years there are 23 x 8760 = 201480 hours
maximum current to be drawn from the battery = (17.15 Amp-hr) ÷ (201480 hours) = 85.12 x 10^-6 Amp = 85.12 μA
A monkey has a bit of a heavy for on the gas pedal. As soon as the light turns green the monkey pushes the gas pedal to the floor and accelerates from 0 mph to 60 mph (0 m/s - 28.82 m/s) in 4.2 seconds, calculate the cars acceleration.
Answer:
[tex]s=6.86m/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, considering that the acceleration is computed as follows:
[tex]a=\frac{v_{final}-v_{initial}}{t}[/tex]
Whereas the final velocity is 28.82 m/s, the initial one is 0 m/s and the time is 4.2 s. Thus, the acceleration turns out:
[tex]a=\frac{28.82m/s-0m/s}{4.2s}\\ \\s=6.86m/s^2[/tex]

Distance to putt = 8 m
Distance the ball stops to the putt = 1.5 m
therefore distance traveled by the ball = 8 - 1.5 = 6.5 m
The ball stops at this point 1.5 m from the putt, therefore its final velocity at this point = 0 m/s
the ball was struck with an initial velocity of 1.6 m/s
Using the equation
[tex]v^2[/tex] = [tex]u^2[/tex] + 2as
where v is the final velocity of the ball = 0 m/s
u is the initial speed of the ball = 1.6 m/s
a is the acceleration of the grass
s is the distance the ball travels = 6.5 m
substituting values, we have
[tex]0^2[/tex] = [tex]1.6^2[/tex] + 2(a x 6.5)
0 = 2.56 + 13a
13a = -2.56
a = -2.56/13 = -0.197 m/s^2
If this acceleration of the grass is assumed to be constant, then to the initial speed needed to make the putt will be calculated from
[tex]v^2[/tex] = [tex]u^2[/tex] + 2as
where
v is the final speed at the putt = 0 m/s
u is the initial speed with which the ball is struck = ?
a is the acceleration of the grass = -0.197 m/s^2
s is the distance to the putt = 8 m
substituting values, we have
[tex]0^2[/tex] = [tex]u^2[/tex] + 2(-0.197 x 8)
0 = [tex]u^2[/tex] - 3.152
[tex]u^2[/tex] = 3.152
u = [tex]\sqrt{3.152}[/tex] = 1.78 m/s
