What is a hydrostatic how can you measure air pressure with a hydrostatic?
The pressure in a liquid at a given depth is called the hydrostatic pressure. This can be calculated using the hydrostatic equation: P = rho * g * d, where P is the pressure, rho is the density of the liquid, g is gravity (9.8 m/s^2) and d is the depth (or height) of the liquid.
When hydrostatic pressure forces water across a membrane passively the process is called?
It's called Filtration
What is it called when air pressure on earth decreases?
It is called low air pressure or a low-pressure system. As air pressure decreases, it typically signifies unsettled weather conditions with the possibility of precipitation.
Stellar equilibrium relies on fusion and gravity to maintain stars in their current form?
Yes, a stable star is in equilibrium, called hydrostatic equilibrium, when the outward pressure from heat caused by core fusion processes balances the inward pull of gravity. There are other factors which alter the form of stars such as their rotation or gravity from external sources such as a nearby mass.
An equilibrium in which all the components are gases is a homogenous equilibrium?
False. An equilibrium in which all the components are in the same phase (solid, liquid, or gas) is called a homogeneous equilibrium.
Why is Mars round?
Basically it is because of gravity. The technical explanation is called the " principle of hydrostatic equilibrium ".
What effects does stellar equilibrium have on stars?
The properties of a main-sequence star can be understood by considering the various physical processes occurring in the interior. First is the hydrostatic balance, also called hydrostatic equilibrium. This determines the density structure of the star as the internal pressure gradient balances against the force of gravity.
When The balance of forces that keep a star from collapsing is called?
The balance of forces that keep a star from collapsing is called hydrostatic equilibrium. This equilibrium is maintained between the inward force of gravity and the outward force generated by gas pressure within the star.
When air pressure is constant throughout a region of the atmosphere the region is in a state is called what?
When air pressure is constant throughout a region of the atmosphere, the region is in a state known as "hydrostatic equilibrium".
What stage of stars life is the force of thermonuclear fusion equal to the force of gravity?
The phenomenon is called hydrostatic equilibrium - it pushes the star in to a stable state and it marks the start of the Main Sequence.
What is a skeleton that is made out of water called?
a hydrostatic skeleton
IS The movement of substances from an area of higher hydrostatic pressure to an area of lower hydrostatic pressure is called diffusion?
No, the movement of substances from an area of higher hydrostatic pressure to an area of lower hydrostatic pressure is called filtration, not diffusion. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
When is a well an artesian well?
An artesian aquifer is a confined aquifer containing groundwater under positive pressure. This causes the water level in a well to rise to a point where hydrostatic equilibrium has been reached. A well drilled into such an aquifer is called an artesian well.
The balance of forces that keeps a star from collapsing is called .?
hydrostatic
What does hydrostatic weighing mean?
Hydrostatic weighing, also called underwater weighing, involves being weighed underwater.requires one to be completely submerged in water for a few seconds. ref. http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-hydrostatic-weighing.htm
What is the state of equilibrium called?
Dont u mean what is equilibrium?
What is it called when the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied by producers?
this is called equilibrium or competitive equilibrium.
