Answer:

a. Longitudinal waves

Explanation:

A longitudinal wave is a wave in which the propagation of the wave is in the same direction as the displacement of the medium carrying the wave.

It is also a type of wave in which the direction that the wave moves is parallel to the direction that the particles of the medium (which carry the wave) move.

Examples of longitudinal waves include seismic waves, and sound waves.

Water (density = 1x10^3 kg/m^3) flows at 15.5 m/s through a pipe with radius 0.040 m. The pipe goes up to the second floor of th
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The speed of the water flow in the pipe on the second floor is approximately 13.1 meters per second.

Explanation:

By assuming that fluid is incompressible and there are no heat and work interaction through the line of current corresponding to the pipe, we can calculate the speed of the water floor in the pipe on the second floor by Bernoulli's Principle, whose model is:

P_{1} + \frac{\rho\cdot v_{1}^{2}}{2}+\rho\cdot g\cdot z_{1} = P_{2} + \frac{\rho\cdot v_{2}^{2}}{2}+\rho\cdot g\cdot z_{2} (1)

Where:

P_{1}, P_{2} - Pressures of the water on the first and second floors, measured in pascals.

\rho - Density of water, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

v_{1}, v_{2} - Speed of the water on the first and second floors, measured in meters per second.

z_{1}, z_{2} - Heights of the water on the first and second floors, measured in meters.

Now we clear the final speed of the water flow:

\frac{\rho\cdot v_{2}^{2}}{2} = P_{1}-P_{2}+\rho \cdot \left[\frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2}+g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2}) \right]

\rho\cdot v_{2}^{2} = 2\cdot (P_{1}-P_{2})+\rho\cdot [v_{1}^{2}+2\cdot g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2})]

v_{2}^{2}= \frac{2\cdot (P_{1}-P_{2})}{\rho}+v_{1}^{2}+2\cdot g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2})

v_{2} = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (P_{1}-P_{2})}{\rho}+v_{1}^{2}+2\cdot g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2}) } (2)

If we know that P_{1}-P_{2} = 0\,Pa, \rho=1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}, v_{1} = 15.5\,\frac{m}{s}, g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and z_{1}-z_{2} = -3.5\,m, then the speed of the water flow in the pipe on the second floor is:

v_{2}=\sqrt{\left(15.5\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+2\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (-3.5\,m)}

v_{2} \approx 13.100\,\frac{m}{s}

The speed of the water flow in the pipe on the second floor is approximately 13.1 meters per second.

Two pool balls, each moving at 2 m/s, roll toward each other and collide. Suppose after bouncing apart, each moves at 2 m/s. Thi
stira [4]

Answer:D

Explanation:according to the law of conservation of energy/momentum, when two bodies collides, their total momentum and energy before and after collision are equal. Given that the two bodies move with the same velocities after collision, means that the law has not been violated since momentum = mass x velocity (where mass is constant)

The wave frequency is where 1 hertz equals 1 wave passed a fixed point in 1 second.

                 =      2      per sec

                 =      2        Hz .
