A force of 26.4lb is applied to an area of 1.71 in2. What is the pressure? A) 15.4 lb/in2
B) 0.0648 lb/in2
C) 45.1 lb/in2
D) 22.8 lb/in2

Pressure, P = 15.4 lb/in²

Explanation:

Given that,

Force applied, F = 26.4 lb

Area of cross section, A = 1.71 in²

To find,

Pressure.

Solution,

Pressure is equal to force per unit area of cross section.

Hence, the correct option is (a) "15.4 lb/in²".

since the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus, as we move to the left on the periodic table, the electrostatic pull between the nucleus and the valence electron shell decreases. as we move down a group (vertical column), the valence shell energy level gets further and further from the nucleus.

he uptake of drugs from the intestine is often strongly influenced by diffusion. for example, consider a water-insoluble steroid for treating inflammation that is solubilized in aggregates of detergent molecules, called micelles. these micelles, aggregates of 80 soap molecules, have a molecular weight of 24,000, a diameter of 2.6 nm, and a charge of -27. the positively charge ions (counterions) in this system are na".
