How does specific gravity effect head pressure?
Head pressure=specific gravity*1000*gravity*height. Therefore if specific gravity is increased head pressure will increase.
Air pressure exerted equally on an object from different directions is what?
balanced pressure
Is there a balance between pressure and gravity in main sequence stars?
Gravity is constantly pulling the matter of a star together, while the nuclear fission reaction that makes the star shine and put off heat is trying to make it explode. The two are very precariously balanced.
Would a Human Being Face Neptune?
Neptune's "surface gravity" is a bit more than Earth's, but Neptune's gravity would not crush you. If you went deep inside Neptune the pressure would probably crush you. That's not gravity crushing you directly, but the pressure. This pressure is caused by the combination of gravity and the planet's resistance to being compressed by gravity. The pressure increases rapidly with depth.
Would a can of coke be crushed due to gravity or atmosphereic pressure in venus?
I think it can because there is a lot of atmospheric pressure so it can be crushed at one point.It would be crushed very quickly. The pressure on Venus is almost 100 times the pressure on earth. The gravity on Venus is less than the gravity on earth, however.
What is balanced pressure?
Gravity((:
When Inside a star the force of gravity is balanced by the?
It is balanced by radiation pressure, and gas pressure.
Inside a star the force of gravity is balanced by?
If the force of gravity crushing a star in weren't balanced, it would collapse. The outward-pushing force counteracting gravity is the energy produced in nuclear fusion, when the heat and pressure inside of stars smashes atoms together.
Which best explains why the sun maintains its size and shape?
Pressure caused by high temperatures are balanced by gravity
When a star's inward gravity and outward pressure are balance the star is said to be?
Hydrostatic equilibrium occurs when compression due to gravity is balanced by a pressure gradient which creates a pressure gradient force in the opposite direction. The balance of these two forces is known as the hydrostatic balance.
How does specific gravity effect head pressure?
Head pressure=specific gravity*1000*gravity*height. Therefore if specific gravity is increased head pressure will increase.
What happens within a contracting cloud in which gravity is stronger than pressure?
It continues to contract and collapse. In accordance with Boyle's Law, the compression of any gas also increases the temperature and pressure; at some point, the contraction will stop when pressure and gravity are equally balanced. With a very massive cloud of hydrogen, it's possible that the force of gravity will cause the extreme pressure and temperature sufficient to begin hydrogen fusion. At that point, as they say in Hollywood, "A Star Is Born".
What two forces are balanced when a systems is in?
When a system is in isostasy, downward gravity and upward buoyancy are balanced.
Air pressure exerted equally on an object from different directions is what 1. balanced pressure 2. gravitational pressure 3. fluid pressure 4. constant pressure?
1. balanced pressure
Does air pressure affect gravity?
Gravity is a function of mass and distance. So, no air pressure does not affect gravity.
What are the all different types of forces?
Gravity, Friction, Air resistance, Turning, Moments, pressure, upthrust, balanced forces, unbalanced forces. there are some of the forces that are well known.
What two forces are balanced when a system is in isostasys?
When a system is in isostasy, downward gravity and upward buoyancy are balanced.
