We do not use water instead of mercury in a barometer.. why.

Asmall metal bar, whose initial temperature was 10° c, is dropped into a large container of boiling water. how long will it take the bar to reach 70° c if it is known that its temperature increases 2° during the first second? (the boiling temperature for water is 100° c. round your answer to one decimal place.) sec how long will it take the bar to reach 98° c? (round your answer to one decimal place.)

An air-filled capacitor is formed from two long conducting cylindrical shells that are coaxial and have radii of 26 mm and 103 mm. the electric potential of the inner conductor with respect to the outer conductor is - 700 v (k = 1/4πε 0 = 8.99 × 109 n · m2/c2) the energy stored in a 1.0-m length of this capacitor is closest to

What are two examples of phase changes that skip a phase during transition?
