Answer:

Explanation:

Given: Density of blood = 1.03 × 10³ Kg/m³, Height =  1.93 m g = 9.8 m/s²

pressure at the brain is equal to atmospheric pressure. = Hydro-static

pressure(ρ₀)

∴ pressure of the foot = pressure of the brain(ρ₀) + ( density of blood × acceleration due to gravity × height)(ρgh)

Hydro-static pressure = pressure at the feet- pressure at the brain(ρ₀)

Hydro-static pressure (Δp) = (ρgh + ρ₀) - ρ₀ = ρgh

Hydro-static pressure = 1.03 × 10³ × 9.8 × 1.93 = 1.948 × 10⁴ Pa

∴  Hydro-static pressure ≈ 1.95 × 10⁴ Pa

A tiger travels 3m/s^2 for 4.1s,what was its initial speed if it's final speed was 55k/h?
zaharov [31]
Acceleration a=3m/s^2
time t= 4.1seconds
Final velocity V= 55km/h
initial velocity U= ?
First convert V to m/s
36km/h=10m/s
55km/h= 55*10/36=15.28m/s
Using the formula V= U+at
U= V-at
U= 15.28-3*4.1=15.28-12.3=2.98m/s
Initial velocity U= 2.98m/s or 10.73km/h (Using the conversion rate 36km/h=10m/s)

Answer:

(a) 1.939 m/h

(b) 0.926 m/h

(c) -0.315 m/h

(d) -1.21 m/h

Explanation:

Here, we have the water depth given by the function of time;

D(t) = 7 + 5·cos[0.503(t-6.75)]

Therefore, to find the velocity of the depth displacement with time, we differentiate the given expression with respect to time as follows;

D'(t) = \frac{d(7 + 5\cdot cos[0.503(t-6.75)])}{dt}

= 5×(-sin(0.503(t-6.75))×0.503

= -2.515×(-sin(0.503(t-6.75))

= -2.515×(-sin(0.503×t-3.395))

Therefore we have;

(a) at 5:00 AM = 5 -  0:00 = 5

D'(5) =  -2.515×(-sin(0.503×5-3.395)) = 1.939 m/h

(b) at 6:00 AM = 6 -  0:00 = 6

D'(5) =  -2.515×(-sin(0.503×6-3.395)) = 0.926 m/h

(c) at 7:00 AM = 7 -  0:00 = 7

D'(5) =  -2.515×(-sin(0.503×7-3.395)) = -0.315 m/h

(d) at Noon 12:00 PM = 12 -  0:00 = 12

D'(5) =  -2.515×(-sin(0.503×12-3.395)) = -1.21 m/h.
