Underground water is being pumped into a pool whose cross section is 3 m x 4 m while water is discharged through a 0.076m-diamet

er orifice at a constant average velocity of 6.3 m/s. if the water level in the pool rises at a rate of 1.5 cm/min, determine the rate at which water is supplied to the pool, in m3/s.

Given:

Area of pool = 3m×4m
Diameter of orifice = 0.076m
Outlet Velocity = 6.3m/s
Accumulation velocity = 1.5cm/min

Required:

Inlet flowrate

Solution:

The problem can be solved by this general formula.

Accumulation = Inlet flowrate - Outlet flowrate
Accumulation velocity × Area of pool = Inlet flowrate - Outlet velocity × Area of orifice

First, we need to convert the units of the accumulation velocity into m/s to be consistent.

Accumulation velocity = 1.5cm/min × (1min/60s)×(1m/100cm)
Accumulation velocity = 0.00025 m/s

We then calculate the area of the pool and the area of the orifice by:

Area of pool = 3 × 4 m²
Area of pool = 12m²

Area of orifice = πd²/4 = π(0.076m)²/4
Area of orifice = 0.00454m²

Since we have all we need, we plug in the values to the general equation earlier

Accumulation velocity × Area of pool = Inlet flowrate - Outlet velocity × Area of orifice

0.00025 m/s × 12m² = Inlet flowrate - 6.3m/s × 0.00454m²

Transposing terms,

Inlet flowrate = 0.316 m³/s

.. An object has a mass of 40 000 kilograms
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

8000 kg/cm^3

Explanation:

The density formula is P = M/V

Density = P = ? expressed in kg/m^3

M = mass = 40,000 kg

V = volume = 5 m^3

P = 40,000/5

P = 8000 kg/m^3

What will the stopping distance be for a 3,000-kg car if -3,000 N of force are applied when the car is traveling 10 m/s?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

F = force applied to stop the car = - 3000 N

m = mass of the car = 3000 kg

a = acceleration of the car = ?

v₀ = initial velocity of the car before the force is applied to stop it = 10 m/s

v = final velocity of the car when it comes to stop = 0 m/s

d = stopping distance of the car

acceleration of the car is given as

a = F/m

inserting the values

a = - 3000/3000

a = - 1 m/s²

using the kinematics equation

v² = v²₀ + 2 a d

inserting the values

0² = 10² + 2 (-1) d

0 = 100 - 2 d

2 d = 100

d = 100/2

d = 50 m


hence the correct choice is

C. 50 m

Suppose you are running late in the morning and drying your hair in the kitchen with the hairdryer plugged into the outlet with
lesantik [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is given that Hair dryer , Toaster and coffeepot are working simultaneously with power 1200 W , 700 W and 800 W respectively.

So the total power of system is P_t=1200+700+800=2700\ W

it is given that they work properly until toast is on.

By switching on the toast, appliance stop working because it may cause the circuit to break to safeguard the circuit.

Circuit breaker frame  are used in home to prevent the short circuit
