What are thermosetting plastics???

Hey!

THERMOSETTING PLASTICS are plastics or polymers that become IRREVESIBLY SET/RIGID when it has been heated and cooled...

Explanation:

This means that if you heat up a thermosetting plastic, you only have one chance to mould it or shape it before it cools down...if not you cannot correct this and will have to start again! Which WILL be sad!

AKA : THERMOSET

HOPE THIS HELPS!!

a mercury barometer is a device that uses the physical properties of mercury in a tube to measure barometric pressure. mercury barometers are used for : -

1. measurement of atmospheric pressure  

2. determining the altitude of a place

3. weather forecasting

4. calibration and checking of aneroid barometers

5. application in fluid mechanics

6. measurement of pressure in aircrafts

7. surface weather analysis

8. preparation of barographs

9. usage in physical sciences like physics, astronomy & chemistry

10. preparation of aircraft altimeters

characteristics of mercury barometer : -

1.used to define and measure atmospheric pressure.

2.on the average at sea level the column of mercury rises to a height of about 760 mm.

3.this quantity is equal to 1 atmosphere.

4.it is also known as standard atmospheric pressure.

5.a barometer in which the weight of a column of mercury in a glass tube with a sealed top is balanced against that of the atmosphere pressing on an exposed cistern of mercury at the base of the mercury column, the height of the column varying with atmospheric pressure.

1.solid

2.carbon dioxide

3.helium
