Water towers store water above the level of consumers for times of heavy use, eliminating the need for high-speed pumps. The hei

ght of the water above a user is 31.0 meter. What would be the gauge pressure of at this height
Physics

Evgen [1.6K]3 years ago

Answer:

<em>The gauge pressure at this height is 304.11 kPa</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Height of water is 31.0 m

We know that gauge pressure is the pressure by which a given pressure exceeds the atmospheric pressure. Normally, the absolute pressure due to this height of water would have been the atmospheric pressure plus the gauge pressure due to this height of water. In the case, we only consider the gauge pressure due to the height of water, since the atmospheric pressure is considered the datum pressure.

Gauge pressure of water = ρgh

where ρ is the density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

h is the height = 31.0 m

Gauge pressure of the water = 1000 x 9.81 x 31 = 304110 Pa = <em>304.11 kPa</em>

liq [111]

1. 5.94\cdot 10^{14} Hz

The frequency of a photon is given by:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

where

c is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength

The wavelength of the photon in this problem is

\lambda=505 nm=5.05\cdot 10^{-7}m

So, the frequency of the photon is

f=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{5.05\cdot 10^{-7} m}=5.94\cdot 10^{14} Hz

2. 3.94\cdot 10^{-19}J, 2.46 eV

The energy of a photon is given by

E=hf

where

h is the Planck constant

f is the frequency of the photon

The frequency of the photon in this problem is

f=5.94\cdot 10^{14} Hz

so its energy in Joules is

E=(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(5.94\cdot 10^{14}Hz)=3.94\cdot 10^{-19}J

And since

1 eV = 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}J

The energy in eV is

E=\frac{3.94\cdot 10^{-19} J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19}J/eV}=2.46 eV

Please help me thank you !!!!
Fantom [35]

Answer:

<em>UP</em>

Explanation:

heat flows from higher level to lower level

( higher concentration to lower concentration )

and since temperature in above block is less than the lower block, the heat will flow from lower block to higher block .

( Up )

Find equation tangent to a circle at given point
vlabodo [156]

the equation of the tangent line must be passed on a point A (a,b) and perpendicular to the radius of the circle. <span>
I will take an example for a clear explanation:
let x² + y² = 4 is the equation of the circle, its center is C(0,0). And we assume that the tangent line passes to the point A(2.3).

</span>since the tangent passes to the A(2,3), the line must be perpendicular to the radius of the circle. 

<span>Let's find the equation of the line parallel to the radius.</span>

<span>The line passes to the A(2,3) and C (0,0). y= ax+b is the standard form of the equation. AC(-2, -3) is a vector parallel to CM(x, y).</span>

det(AC, CM)= -2y +3x =0, is the equation of the line // to the radius.

let's find the equation of the line perpendicular to this previous line.

let M a point which lies on the line. so MA.AC=0 (scalar product), 

it is (2-x, 3-y) . (-2, -3)= -4+4x + -9+3y=4x +3y -13=0 is the equation of tangent
