A circular swimming pool has a diameter of 18 m. The circular side of the pool is 3 m high, and the depth of the water is 1.5 m.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

A) 11223450 J

B) 18705750 J

Explanation:

Work done = force x distance moved.

Force of fluid at bottom of the pool = pghA

Where

P = density of water = 1000 kg/m3

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s2

h = depth of water = 1.5 m

A = area of pool of diameter d = 18 m

A = (¶d^2)/4 = (3.142 x 18^2)/4 = 254.5 m2

Total wall height of pool = 3 m

Force on pool bottom due to water is

F = 1000 x 9.8 x 1.5 x 254.5 = 3741150 N

A) work (in Joules) required to pump all of the water over the side

Height of wall H = 3 m

Work = F x H = 3741150 x 3 = 11223450 J

B) work (in Joules) required to pump all of the water out of an outlet 2m over the side?

Total height will be 2 + 3 = 5 m

Work = F x H = 3741150 x 5 =

18705750 J

The tension in a string from which a 4.0 kg object is suspended in an elevator is equal to 44 N. What is the acceleration of the
Ronch [10]

Answer: 1

Explanation:

Given

Tension is the string T=44\ N

mass of object m=4\ kg

Tension is greater than the weight of the object i.e. elevator is moving upward

we can write

\Rightarrow T-mg=ma\\\Rightarrow T=m(g+a)\\\Rightarrow 44=4(10+a)\\\Rightarrow 11=10+a\\\Rightarrow a=1\ m/s^2

Which statement accurately describes the motion of the objects in the ticker tape above?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: "One object speeds up before it slows to a stop "

(the top one)

Explanation:

Ok, first a little recall on how to read this type of graph.

If the points are far apart, the object is moving fast.

If the points are close together, the object is moving slow.

If the distance between the points changes then the velocity of the object changes, which means that the object is accelerated.

If we have a lot of points clustered in one location, then the object is not moving.

We can see:

The top object starts slow, then it increments the speed, then it slows down again, and then it comes to stop.

The bottom object starts fast, and it slows down.

then:

"One object speeds up before it slows to a stop "

This describes the motion of the top object, this is the only correct option that describes one of the graphs.
