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

If a conducting loop of radius 10 cm is onboard an instrument on Jupiter at 45 degree latitude, and is rotating with a frequency
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

a)  fem = - 2.1514 10⁻⁴ V,  b) I = - 64.0 10⁻³ A, c)    P = 1.38  10⁻⁶ W

Explanation:

This exercise is about Faraday's law

         fem = - \frac{ d \Phi_B}{dt}

where the magnetic flux is

        Ф = B x A

the bold are vectors

        A = π r²

we assume that the angle between the magnetic field and the normal to the area is zero

         fem = - B π 2r dr/dt = - 2π B r v

linear and angular velocity are related

        v = w r

        w = 2π f

        v = 2π f r

we substitute

        fem = - 2π B r (2π f r)

        fem = -4π² B f r²

For the magnetic field of Jupiter we use the equatorial field B = 428 10⁻⁶T

we reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

       f = 2 rev / s (2π rad / 1 rev) = 4π Hz

we calculate

       fem = - 4π² 428 10⁻⁶ 4π 0.10²

       fem = - 16π³ 428 10⁻⁶ 0.010

       fem = - 2.1514 10⁻⁴ V

for the current let's use Ohm's law

        V = I R

        I = V / R

         I = -2.1514 10⁻⁴ / 0.00336

         I = - 64.0 10⁻³ A

Electric power is

        P = V I

        P = 2.1514 10⁻⁴ 64.0 10⁻³

        P = 1.38  10⁻⁶ W

The "Giant Swing" at a county fair consists of a vertical central shaft with a number of horizontal arms attached at its upper e
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the central shaft rotates , the seat along with passenger also rotates . Their rotation requires a centripetal force of mw²R where m is mass of the passenger and w is the angular velocity and R is radius of the circle in which the passenger rotates.

This force is provided by a component of   T , the tension in the rope from which the passenger hangs . If θ be the angle the rope makes with horizontal ,

T cos θ will provide the centripetal force . So

Tcosθ = mw²R

Tsinθ component will balance the weight .

Tsinθ = mg

Dividing the two equation

Tanθ = \frac{g}{\omega^2R}

Hence for a given w , θ depends upon g or weight .

(a) In what direction would the ship in Exercise 3.57 have to travel in order to have a velocity straight north relative to the
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Direction of ship: 9.45° West of North

Ship's relative speed: 7.87m/s

Explanation:

A. Direction of ship: since horizontal of the velocity of boat relative to the ground is 0

Vx=0

Therefore, -VsSin∅+VcCos∅40°

Sin∅ = Vc/Vs × Cos 40°

Sin∅ = 1.5/7 ×Cos40°

Sin∅= 0.164

∅= Sin-¹ (0.164)

∅= 9.45° W of N

B. Ship's relative speed:

Vy= VsCos∅ + Vcsin40°

= 7Cos9.45° + 1.5sin40°

= 7×0.986 + 1.5×0.642

= 7.865

= 7.87m/s
