An open U tube pressure gauge containing water shows a difference in level of 15cm when connected to a gas supply. Find in N/m^2 the excess pressure of the gas above the atmospheric pressure.

Explain why you think this diagram shows what happened to the carbon in the biodome.

If a negatively charged particle is placed at rest in an electric potential field that increases in the positive x-direction, what will the particle do? a. accelerate in the positive x-direction b. remain at rest c. accelerate in the negative x-direction

The heater element of a 120 v toaster is a 5.4 m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.48 mm. the resistivity of nichrome at the operating temperature of the toaster is 1.3 × 10-6 ω·m. the toaster is operated at a voltage of 120 v. (a) what is the power drawn by the toaster? (b) if the cost of electricity is 12 ¢ per kilowatt-hour, and it takes 2 minutes to toast bread, how much does it cost for toasted bread? (c) when the heater element is at room temperature, is the resistivity in the nichrome wire greater than, less than, or equal to it’s resistivity when at operating temperature? explain.
