Four lawn sprinkler heads are fed by a 1.9-cm-diameter pipe. The water comes out of the heads at an angle of 35° above the horiz

klemol [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Angle, θ = 35°

Vertical distance, Δx = 6 m

Diameter, d = 1.9 cm

= 0.019 m

When the water leaves the sprinkler, it does so at a projectile motion.

Therefore,

Using equation of motion,

(t × Vox) = 2Vo²(sin θ × cos θ)/g

= Δx = 2Vo²(sin 35 × cos 35)/g

Vo² = (6 × 9.8)/(2 × sin 35 × cos 35)

= 62.57

Vo = 7.91 m/s

Area of sprinkler, As = πD²/4

Diameter, D = 3 × 10^-3 m

As = π × (3 × 10^-3)²/4

= 7.069 × 10^-6 m²

V_ = volume rate of the sprinkler

= area, As × velocity, Vo

= (7.069 × 10^-6) × 7.91

= 5.59 × 10^-5 m³/s

Remember,

1 m³ = 1000 liters

= 5.59 × 10^-5 m³/s × 1000 liters/1 m³

= 5.59 × 10^-2 liters/s

= 0.0559 liters/s.

For the 4 sprinklers,

The rate at which volume is flowing in the 4 sprinklers = 4 × 0.0559

= 0.224 liters/s

Area of 1.9 cm pipe, Ap = πD²/4

= π × (0.019)²/4

= 2.84 × 10^-4 m²

Volumetric flowrate of the four sprinklers = 4 × 5.59 × 10^-5 m³/s

= 2.24 × 10^-4 m³/s

Velocity of the water, Vw = volumetric flowrate/area

= 2.24 × 10^-4/2.84 × 10^-4

= 0.787 m/s

A market buys watermelons for $1.25 they want to make a 20% profit what should they charge for the watermelons

Serhud [2]

Answer: $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of watermelon = $1.25

Profit percent = 20%

Profit = Profit percent × Cost price

= 20% × $1.25

= 20/100 × $1.25

= 0.2 × $1.25

= $0.25

Selling price = Cost price + Profit

Selling price = $1.25 + $0.25

Selling price = $1.50

They should charge $1.50 for the watermelons

if a coin is tossed 4 times, the odds of it coming up either heads every time or tails every time are 1:7.What is the probabilit

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

$1$

Explanation:

From the question, we have it that the probability of heads coming up every time or tail coming up every time is 1:7 if the coin is tossed in 4 tosses

What this means is that we have a probability of 1/8 of head showing up and a probability of 7/8 that a tail will show up in each toss of the coin

For four throws, it means all four are heads or all four are tails

If all four are heads, we have the probability of this happening as:

$\text{ (}\frac{1}{8})^{}$

if all four are tails, we have the probability as:

$\frac{7}{8}$

Now, the probability of either heads or all tails after 4 tosses will be:

$\text{ }\frac{1}{8}\text{ + }\frac{7}{8}\text{ = 1}$

Two angles are supplementary. One angle has a measure of 44 degrees. What is the measure of the other angle?

xxMikexx [17]

If A and B are supplementary angles, then:
A+B=180º

In this case:
A=44º

44º+B=180º
B=180º-44º=136º

Anser: the measure of the other angle is 136º
