The electrons are already there. They are freely moving through the conductor.

In a 100 mm diameter horizontal pipe, a venturimeter of 0.5 contraction ratio has been fitted. The head of water on the meter wh

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

the rate of flow = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s or 0.029 m³/s

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the pipe = 100mm = 0.1m

Contraction ratio = 0.5

thus, diameter at the throat of venturimeter = 0.5×0.1m = 0.05m

The formula for discharge through a venturimeter is given as:

$Q=C_d\frac{A_1A_2}{\sqrt{A_1^2-A_2^2}}\sqrt{2gh}$

Where,

$C_d$ is the coefficient of discharge = 0.97 (given)

A₁ = Area of the pipe

A₁ = $\frac{\pi}{4}0.1^2 = 7.85\times 10^{-3}m^2$

A₂ = Area at the throat

A₂ = $\frac{\pi}{4}0.05^2 = 1.96\times 10^{-3}m^2$

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Now,

The gauge pressure at throat = Absolute pressure - The atmospheric pressure

⇒The gauge pressure at throat = 2 - 10.3 = -8.3 m (Atmosphric pressure = 10.3 m of water)

Thus, the pressure difference at the throat and the pipe = 3- (-8.3) = 11.3m

Substituting the values in the discharge formula we get

$Q=0.97\frac{7.85\times 10^{-3}\times 1.96\times 10^{-3}}{\sqrt{7.85\times 10^{-3}^2-1.96\times 10^{-3}^2}}\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 11.3}$

$Q=\frac{0.97\times15.42\times 10^{-6}\times 14.88}{7.605\times 10^{-3}}$

Q = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s

Hence, the rate of flow = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s or 0.029 m³/s

Three basic electrical effects occur when an electric current flows in a conductor: A magnetic field is set up around the conduc

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

A drop in voltage occurs

Explanation:

When electric current flows through a conduct, there are three basic electrical effects that occur to the conductor;

1. A magnetic field is set up around the conductor,

A magnetic field is formed around a conductor when current flows through it which makes it acts like a magnet. Application is used in electric bells.

2. Heat is generated, and

The heating effect of current is due to the conversion of some of the electrical energy that passes through the conductor, into heat energy. Application of heat effect include electric iron, microwave oven, electric bulb, hair straightener etc.

H = I²Rt

3. A drop in voltage occurs

Voltage drop is as a result of current passing through the impedance offers by the conductor or circuit elements. When current passes through a conductor, the resistance offers opposition to the flow of the electric current according to Ohm's law.

Could Mars be a suitable alternative to Earth as a second home for humans? Explain your answer.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

After the Earth, Mars is the most habitable planet in our solar system due to several reasons: Its soil contains water to extract. It isn't too cold or too hot. ... Gravity on Mars is 38% that of our Earth's, which is believed by many to be sufficient for the human body to adapt to.
