Answer:

A slow eruption is likely to occur in a volcano having magma that is low in silica.

Explanation:

The magma flows out at a slow speed and with ease when the content of Silica is very low in it. The consistency of magma is made up of oxygen and silicon. On the other hand, if the content of silica is very high in the magma, the volcano erupts very explosively. Hence, it is to be noted that the amount and content of silica in the magma determine the flow of the magma.

A volcano erupts quietly if it's magma is low on silica. Low silica magma will be very thin, runny, and will flow easily, so the gases in the magma will bubble out gently. Hope this helps!:)

Hi there! :)

$\large\boxed{v_{f} = 18 m/s}$

Use the following kinematic equation to solve for the final velocity:

$v_{f} = v_{i} + at$

In this instance, the runner started from rest, so the initial velocity is 0 m/s. We can rewrite the equation as:

$v_{f} = at$

Plug in the given acceleration and time:

$v_{f} = 4.5 * 4 = 18 m/s$

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

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

Answer:

h = height of the hotel room from the ground floor = 237.4m

Explanation:

Change in Potential Energy of tourist = ΔPE = PE2 – PE1 = mgh

PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the ground floor

PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the top (hotel room)

Given

PE1 = − 2.01 × 10⁵ J

PE2 = 0J

PE2 – PE1 = mgh

0 – (− 2.01 × 10⁵ J) = mgh

2.01 × 10⁵ J = 86.4×9.8×h

h = 2.01 × 10⁵/(86.4×9.8) = 237.4m

Somebody please help me with this question..!

Rudik [331]

8.1) Here, Pressure increases with depth in the ocean at higher rate then that of increase in altitude in atmosphere. So, the rate of change of pressure is different in these journeys.So, your most correct answer would be option D.

8.2) Difference in the shape of lines is due to different density of air & water. So, that physical property and your answer would be option A

So, in Short Answers of your questions are:
8.1) - Option D
8.2) - Option A

Hope this helps!

Which will increase the kinetic energy of an object more, increasing its mass or increasing its speed? Why?

agasfer [191]

Increasing its velocity will add to the kinetic energy more as the formula for kinetic energy is 0.5*m*v^2. (The speed will be squared making it greater)
