twelfth floor, 37 m above that pipe.

The minimum gauge pressure needed in the water pipe is  4.00*10^5 N /m^2.

Solution:

Water coming out of a faucet on the twelfth floor at height is h  = 40.8 m

minimum gauge pressure  P _G  = ? g h

= 1.0*10^3 kg / m^3 * 9.81 m/s^2 * 40.8 m

= 4.00*10^5 N /m^2

Once the water has entered your home's plumbing system there are many ways to relieve the pressure. Clogged pipes, flogged filters and aerators, scaled water heaters, and simple old leaks are common culprits. House water pressure is typically 45-80 psi.

Hydrostatic pressure at any height below water is calculated using P=hdg. where h is the height under open water, d is the density of the water, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. Water pressure in municipal water pipes is usually much higher than 80 PSI and can be well over 140 PSI. A pressure regulating valve PRV is installed where the water supply pipe enters.

A 3.0-kg block starts at rest at the top of a 37° incline, which is 5.0 m long. Its speed when it reaches the bottom is 2.0 m/s.
Mama L [17]

Answer: f_{r} = 16.49N

Explanation: The object is placed on an inclined plane at an angle of 37° thus making it weight have two component,

W_{x} = horizontal component of the weight = mgsinФ

W_{y} = vertical component of weight = mgcosФ

Due to the way the object is positioned, the horizontal component of force will accelerate the object thus acting as an applied force.

by using newton's law of motion, we have that

mgsinФ - f_{r} = ma

where m = mass of object=5kg

a = acceleration= unknown

Ф = angle of inclination = 37°

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^{2}

f_{r} = frictional force = unknown

we need to first get the acceleration before the frictional force which is gotten by using the equation below

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2aS

where v = final velocity = 2m/s

u = initial velocity = 0m/s (because the object started from rest)

a= unknown

S= distance covered = length of plane = 5m

2^{2} = 0^{2} + 2*a*5\\\\4= 10 *a\\\\a = \frac{4}{10} \\a = 0.4m/s^{2}

we slot in a into the equation below to get frictional force

mgsinФ - f_{r} = ma

3 * 9.8 * sin 37 - f_{r} = 3* 0.4

17.9633 - f_{r} =  1.2

f_{r} = 17.9633 - 1.2

f_{r} = 16.49N

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

a)  r₁ = 3.836 10⁷ m,  b)   F = - 3,390 10⁸ N , c)  R = 120.3 m

Explanation:

a) This is a problem of equilibrium where the force is gravitational, we call F1 the force of the Moon and F2 the force from the earth.

       F₁ -F₂ = 0

       F₁ = F₂

       G m M_{m} / r₁² = G m M_{e} / r₂²

Let's look for the measured distance from a Coordinate System located on the Moon,

         r₂ = D - r₁

Where D is the average distance from Terra to the Moon 3.84 10⁸ m

        M_{m} / r₁² = M_{e} / (D - r₁)²

       (D² - 2 D r₁ + r₁²) = M_{e} /M_{m} r₁²

       (1 - M_{e} / M_{m})r₁² - 2D r₁ + D² = 0

Let's replace and solve the second degree equation

       (1 - 5.98 10²⁴ / 7.36 10²²) r₁² - 2 3.84 10⁸ r₁ + (3.84 10⁸)² = 0

       -80.25 r₁² - 7.68 10⁸ r₁ + 14.75 10¹⁶ = 0

        r₁² + 9.57 10⁶ r₁ - 1.838 10¹⁵ = 0

        r₁ = [-9.57 10⁶ ±√ (91.58 10¹² + 7.352 10¹⁵)] / 2

        r₁ = [-9.57 10⁶ + - 86.28 10⁶] / 2

The results are:

       r₁’= 38.355 10 6 m

       r₁ ’’ = -47.915 10 6 m

We take the positive result that a distance between the moon and the Earth, the equalization point is    r₁ = 3.836 10⁷ m

b) The force at point R = 2 r₁

        R = 2 3.8355 10⁷ = 7.671 10⁷ m

        F = F₁ - F₂

        F = G m  M_{m} / R² - G m  M_{e} / (D- R)²

        F = G m ( M_{m} / R² -  M_{e} / (D-R)²)

   F = m 6.67 10⁻¹¹ (7.36 10²² / (7.671 10⁷)² - 5.98 10²⁴ / (3.84 10⁸ - 0.7671 10⁸)²

        F = m 6.67 10⁻¹¹ (0.125076 10⁸ - 0.63329 10⁸)

        F = m (-3.3897 10⁸) N

The mass m of the rocket must be known, suppose it is worth 1 kg (m = 1 kg)

        F = - 3,390 10⁸ N

c) let's use gravitational force from the moon

        F = G m  M_{m} / R²

        R =√ G m  M_{m} / F

        R = √ (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 1 7.36 10²² / 3.3897 10⁸)

        R = √ (1.4482 10⁴)

        R = 1.2034 10² m

        R = 120.3 m

What is the overall effect of Earth's global atmospheric circulation?
yulyashka [42]
Atmospheric Circulation is the large-scale movement of air by which heat is distributed on the surface of Earth.
The wind belts and the jet streams girdling the planet are steered by three convection cells: the Hadley cell, the Ferrel cell, and the Polar cell.
While the Hadley, Ferrel, Polar cells are major players in global heat transport, they do not act alone.
Disparities in temperature also drive a set of longitudinal circulation cells, and the overall atmospheric motion is known as the zonal overturning circulation.
