Find the work done in pumping gasoline that weighs 6600 newtons per cubic meter. A cylindrical gasoline tank 3 meters in diamete
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

<em>work done in pumping the entire fuel is 466587 J</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

weight of the gasoline per volume = 6600 N/m^3

diameter of the tank = 3 m

length of the tank = 2 m

height of the tractor tank above the top of the tank = 5 m

work done in pumping fuel to this height = ?

First, we find the volume of the fuel

since the tank is cylindrical,<em> we assume that the fuel within also takes the cylindrical shape.</em>

<em>Also, we assume that the fuel completely fills the tank.</em>

volume of a cylinder = \pi r^{2}l

where r = radius = diameter ÷ 2 = 3/2 = 1.5 m

volume of the cylinder = 3.142 x 1.5^{2} x 2 = 14.139 m^3

we then find the total weight of the fuel in Newton

total weight = (weight per volume) x volume

total weight = 6600 x 14.139 = 93317.4 N

work done = (total weight of the fuel) x (height through which the fuel is pumped)

work done in pumping = 93317.4 x 5 = <em>466587 J</em>

11. You sit at the outer rim of a Ferris wheel that rotates 2 revolutions per minute (RPM). What would your rotational speed be
aalyn [17]
If you are instead clinging to a position halfway from the center to the outer rim of the Ferris wheel, YOUR ROTATIONAL SPEED WILL STILL BE 2 REVOLUTION PER MINUTE.
This is because, every part of the wheel is moving with the same speed, so it does not matter where you sit on the wheel, the rotation per minute will still be the same. It is just like travelling inside a motor car, it does not matter whether you are sitting in the front passenger seat or at the back, the speed of the car remains the same.

The equation that describes a transverse wave on a string is y = (0.0120 m)sin[(927 rad/s)t - (3.00 rad/m)x] where y is the disp
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Speed, v = 312.34 m/s

Explanation:

The equation that describes a transverse wave on the string is given by :

y=0.0120\ msin[(927\ rad/s)t-(3\ rad/m)x]..............(1)

Where

y = displacement of a string particle

x = position of the particle on the string

The wave is travelling in the +x direction. We have to find the speed of the wave.

The general equation of traverse wave is given by :

y=A\ sin(kx-\omega t)................(2)

On comparing equation (1) and (2) we get,

k = 3 rad/m

Since, k=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}

\lambda=\dfrac{2\pi}{3} ..............(3)

Also, \omega=927\ rad/s

Since, \omega=2\pi \nu

\nu=\dfrac{927}{2\pi}...............(4)

Speed of the wave is the product of frequency and wavelength i.e.

v=\nu\times \lambda

Using equation (3) and (4), the speed of the wave can be calculated as :

v=\dfrac{927}{2\pi}\times \dfrac{2\pi}{3}

v = 312.34 m/s

Hence, the speed of the transverse wave is 312.34 m/s

What is the purpose of family?
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Purpose of family:

Basically main role of a family towards the society is its continuity by both reproduction and  interaction with each other. The main contribution of family to the society is society's continuation.

Types of families:

The family further divided into six types nowadays. Namely,

  1. Nuclear Family
  2. Single Parent
  3. Extended Family
  4. Childless Family
  5. Step family
  6. Grandparent Family

<u>Defining each Family and their pros and cons :</u>

1). Nuclear Family: The most basic kind of family is nuclear family based on two parents and their biological or adopted children. Number of children is variable, some have one and others have more than one. The main aim of the nuclear family is to up bring their kids and teach them how to socialize in the society.

<u>Pros of nuclear family</u>:

  • Both parents work and more likely financially stable
  • Children gets more balanced parenting
  • Concerned about education
  • Focus more on health issues both mental and physical
  • More socialize in the society

<u>Cons of nuclear family</u>:

  • Higher level of stress factor due to increased number of dependents
  • Have higher rates of disputes
  • Children become egotistical due to over possessive parents

2). Single Parent: Consists of either a mother or a father living with one or more than one child. Parents may initially married, separated or departed, or passed away (one of them). Like other family structures single parents also have some pros and cons.

<u>Pros of single parent</u>:

  • Close relationship with each other due to less family members
  • More responsible as duties are not being further divided.
  • Both children and parents are strong and independent

<u>Cons of single parent</u>:

  • Less income due to sole parent
  • May relay on financial help
  • Quality living may compromise due to sole earning
  • Children become mentally unstable by living alternatively with parents (in divorced cases).

3). Extended Family: Basically extended families are joint families, in which grandparents, parents and children live together to support each other both financially and socially.

<u>Pros of extended family</u>:

  • More tolerance level among children
  • Care and  Respects for people older in age is practiced
  • Have emotional support
  • Have social support

<u>Cons of extended family</u>:

  • Face more financial crises due to large number of members in a family
  • Intervening in personal matters with each other
  • Low privacy

4).Childless Family: Partners who have no any children either by choice or due to infertility.

<u>Pros of childless family</u>:

  • More financially strong
  • No one to take care of
  • More free to do basic thing like travelling, shopping and fun activities
  • Have more chance to fulfill desired goal

<u>Cons of childless family</u>:

  • Develop fear of isolation by the time
  • Society pressure (not having kids)
  • Develop sense of lacking something important (infertile couples)

5). Step family:

When two families start living to gather, like two divorced people get married and living together with their children (from 1st partner).

<u>Pros of step family</u>:

  • Child gets advantage by living with both parents
  • Financially stable due to two source of incomes

<u>Cons of step family</u>:

  • Feeling of living forcefully with second parent
  • Couple fight often due to each other's children conflict
  • children develop leas tolerance

6) Grandparent Family: In which grandchildren are raised by their grandparents.

<u>Pros of grandparent family</u>:

  • Children have strong relationship with their elderly
  • More protective environment for children

<u>Cons of grandparent family:</u>

  • Less financially table
  • Difficult to raise children due to old age and related health issue
  • Big age gap  

<u>Similarities and Differences:</u>

By considering the pros and cons of different family structure we come to the point that many of them have some similarities like financial stability, strong bonding, and more socialization. Likewise there are few differences as well as some families share strong bond while other suffers from isolation. Some are more financially stable and others are less. Some have children while other are childless. Some children have both parents while other have single or step patent. Some of them have high tolerance while other has less. Some live quality life whiles other compromise on their needs and wants.
