How much work is done against the gravitational force on a 3.0 kg object when it is carried from the ground floor to the roof of a building, a vertical climb of 240 m?
A beam of light travelling in water is incident on a glass which is immersed in the water. The incident beam makes an angle of \(40^o\) with the normal. Calculate the angle of refraction in the glass.
[Refractive index of water = 1.33, Refractive index of glass = 1.5]
An open-tube mercury manometer is used to measure the pressure in a gas tank. When the atmospheric pressure is 101,325 \(P_a\), what is the absolute pressure in \(P_a\) in the tank if the height of the mercury in the open tube is 25 cm higher. density of mercury = \(13600kg/m^3, g = 9.8m/s^2\)
The sensitivity of a thermometer is
