A large, cylindrical water tank with diameter 2.40 m is on a platform 2.00 m above the ground. The vertical tank is open to the

air and the depth of the water in the tank is 2.00 m. There is a hole with diameter 0.520 cm in the side of the tank just above the bottom of the tank. The hole is plugged with a cork. You remove the cork and collect in a bucket the water that flows out the hole. a) When 1.00 gal of water flows out of the tank, what is the change in the height of the water in the tank?
b) How long does it take you to collect 1.00 gal of water in the bucket?

Answer:

a.  h₁ =0.0008m = 0.8mm is the height of water that flow out

the change in height of water in the tank = h - h₁ = 2 - 0.0008 = 1.9992m

b.    t =31.93 sec

Explanation:

a) When 1.00 gal of water flows out of the tank, what is the change in the height of the water in the tank?

given:,

cylindrical water tank with diameter, D - 2.40 m

the tank is 2.00 m above the ground.

depth of the water in the tank is 2.00 m.

diameter of hole, d - 0.520 cm

firstly, we need to calculate the volume of water in the tank:

Volume = πr²h

              =(pi * D * D)/4  * height of water

              =(3.142 * 2.4 * 2.4)/4  * 2 = 4.52*2 = 9.05m³

1.0 gal of water is equivalent to = 0.0038m³

the volume of 1gal is 0.0038 = A *h

the area of the tank is calculated above as 4.52m²

therefore, 0.0038 = 4.52 *h

                    h₁ =0.0008m = 0.8mm is the height of water that flow out

the change in height of water in the tank = h - h₁ = 2 - 0.0008 = 1.9992m

b) How long does it take you to collect 1.00 gal of water in the bucket?

1.0 gal of water is equivalent to = 0.0038m³

to calculate for Volume flow, Q for a draining tank

       Q = Cd * A *\sqrt{2gH}

where Cd is a discharge coefficient, and is given by 0.9 for water

A is the area of the small hole = (pi * D * D)/4 = (pi * 0.0052 * 0.0052)/4

          A = 0.0000212m²

H= height of the hole from the tank water level= 2m - 0.0052 = 1.9948m

g = 9.8m/s2

 Q = 0.9 * 0.0000212 *\sqrt{2*9.8 * 1.9948}

 Q = 0.0000191 * 6.253 = 0.000119 m³/s

 Q = V/t

 Qt = V

   t = V/Q = 0.0038m³/0.000119 m³/s

   t =31.93 sec

A penny rides on top of a piston as it undergoes vertical simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 4.0cm. If the frequency is
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

the penny loses contact at the piston's highest point.

f = 2.5 Hz

Explanation:

Concepts and Principles  

1- Newton's Second Law: The net force F on a body with mass m is related to the body's acceleration a by  

∑F = ma                                                          (1)  

2- The maximum transverse acceleration of a particle in simple harmonic motion is found in terms of the angular speed w and the amplitude A as follows:  

a_max = -w^2A                                                (2)  

3- The angular frequency w of a wave is related to the frequency f by:  

w = 2π f                                                              (3)  

Given Data  

- The amplitude of the piston is: A = (4.0 cm) ( 1/ 100 cm)=  0.04 m.  

- The frequency of oscillation of the piston is steadily increased.

Required Data

<em>In part (a), we are asked to determine the point at which the penny first loses contact with the piston.  </em>

<em>In part (b), we are asked to determine the maximum frequency for which the penny just barely remains in place for a full cycle.  </em>

Solution  

(a)  

The free-body diagram in Figure 1 shows the forces acting on the penny; mi is the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the penny andrt is the normal contact force exerted by the piston on the penny.  

figure 1 is attached

Apply Newton's second law from Equation (1) in the vertical direction to the penny:  

∑F_y -mg= ma        

Solve for n=m(g+a) The penny loses contact with the surface of the oscillating piston when the normal force n exerted by the piston is zero. So  

0 = m(g + a)

a = —g  

Therefore, the penny loses contact with the piston when the piston starts accelerating downwards. The piston first acceleratesdownward at its highest point and hence the penny loses contact at the piston's highest point.

(b)  

The maximum acceleration of the penny at the highest point of the piston is found from Equation (2):  

a = —w^2A  

where a = —g at the highest point. So  

g = w^2A  

Solve for w:  

w =√g/A

Substitute for w from Equation (3):

2πf =  √g/A

Solve for f :  

f = 1/2π√g/A

Substitute numerical values:  

f = 1/2π√9.8 m/s^2/0.04

f = 2.5 Hz

Two horses on opposite sides of a narrow stream are pulling a barge up the stream. Each hors pulls with a force of 720N. The rop
anygoal [31]
For the answer to the question above, each horse's force forms a right angle triangle with the barge and subtends an angle of 60/2 = 30°. The resultant in the direction of the barge's motion is:
Fx = Fcos(∅)
We can multiply this by 2 to find the resultant of both horses.
Fx = 2Fcos(∅)
Fx = 2 x 720cos(30)
Fx = 1247 N

How much energy is contained in matter what the mass of 1 gram (0.001 kilogram)
kaheart [24]

Classically and Newtonianly, it's the sum of the chemical energy if any,
the electrical energy if any, the thermal energy if any, and the mechanical
energy consisting of potential and kinetic energy if any.

The mechanical energy, consisting of potential and kinetic energy if any, is

           0.001 x [ (acceleration of gravity x height) +  (1/2) (speed)² ] .

But I've got a sneaky hunch that you're not talking about any of these.
You want to know how much [ <em><u>mc</u>² </em>] there is in 1 gram of mass.  No prob.

           E = m c² = (0.001) x (3 x 10⁸)² = <em>9 x 10¹³ joules</em>

That's the energy that a 1,000-watt toaster uses
in  <em>2,852 years</em>  of continuous toasting.
