Y=k/x, x is halved. what happens to the value of y

Physics
1 answer:
IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

y is doubled

Explanation:

If x is halved, that means the value is doubled. Here is an exmaple:

y=1/2. If the denominater is doubled, y would equal y=1/1. So, the value of y has doubled from 0.5 to 1. Therefore, if the denominator is halved, the solution will be doubled.

What compounds are you made of?

I am made of literally THOUSANDS of compounds ... too many to list here.
But the one compound that's most abundant, and actually comprises almost
80% of my entire beautiful body, is the compound DiHydrogen Oxide, with
the molecular formula H₂O .  This compound is commonly known as "water".

A ball has a mass of 1.5kg and is thrown straight up with a speed of 60m/s, what is the ball’s momentum:
madam [21]

Answer:

Assumption: the air resistance on this ball is negligible. Take g = 10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}.

a. The momentum of the ball would be approximately 60\;\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1} two seconds after it is tossed into the air.

b. The momentum of the ball would be approximately \rm \left(-45\; \rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}\right) three seconds after it reaches the highest point (assuming that it didn't hit the ground.) This momentum is smaller than zero because it points downwards.

Explanation:

The momentum p of an object is equal its mass m times its velocity v. That is: \vec{p} = m \cdot \vec{v}.

Assume that the air resistance on this ball is negligible. If that's the case, then the ball would accelerate downwards towards the ground at a constant g \approx -10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}. In other words, its velocity would become approximately 10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1} more negative every second.

The initial velocity of the ball is 60\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}. After two seconds, its velocity would have become 60\;\rm m \cdot s^{-1} + 2\; \rm s \times \left(-10\;\rm m \cdot s^{-1}\right) = 40\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}. The momentum of the ball at that time would be around p = m \cdot v \approx 60\; \rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}.

When the ball is at the highest point of its trajectory, the velocity of the ball would be zero. However, the ball would continue to accelerate downwards towards the ground at a constant g \approx -10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}. That's how the ball's velocity becomes negative.

After three more seconds, the velocity of the ball would be 0\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1} + 3\; \rm s \times \left(-10\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}\right) = -30 \; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}. Accordingly, the ball's momentum at that moment would be p = m \cdot v \approx \left(-45\; \rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}\right).

John weighs 200 pounds.
In order to lift himself up to a higher place, he has to exert force of 200 lbs.

The stairs to the balcony are 20-ft high.
In order to lift himself to the balcony, John has to do
(20 ft) x (200 pounds)  =  4,000 foot-pounds of work.

If he does it in 6.2 seconds, his RATE of doing work is
(4,000 foot-pounds) / (6.2 seconds)  =  645.2 foot-pounds per second.

The rate of doing work is called "power".

(If we were working in the metric system (with SI units),
the force would be in "newtons", the distance would be in "meters",
1 newton-meter of work would be 1 "joule" of work, and
1 joule of work per second would be 1 "watt".
Too bad we're not working with metric units.)

So back to our problem.

John has to do 4,000 foot-pounds of work to lift himself up to the balcony,
and he's able to do it at the rate of 645.2 foot-pounds per second.

Well, 550 foot-pounds per second is called 1 "horsepower".

So as John runs up the steps to the balcony, he's doing the work
at the rate of

           (645.2 foot-pounds/second) / (550 ft-lbs/sec per HP)

=  1.173 Horsepower.  GO JOHN !

(I'll betcha he needs a shower after he does THAT 3 times.)
_______________________________________________

Oh my gosh !  Look at #26 !  There are the metric units I was talking about.

Do you need #26 ?

I'll give you the answers, but I won't go through the explanation,
because I'm doing all this for only 5 points.

a).  5
b).  750 Joules
c).  800 Joules
d).  93.75%

You're welcome.

And #27 is 0.667 m/s .

12) Water flows through a horizontal pipe of cross-sectional area 10.0 cm2 at a pressure of 0.250 atm with a flow rate is 1.00 L
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The pressure after passing the valve is 23,8 [Kpa] ( 0,234 atm) and the pressure drop is about 1,53 [Kpa]

Explanation:

We need to use the formula of bernoulli, in the attached image we can see the fluid throw the pipe, we also can calculate the velocity inside the pipe using the flow rate and the cross sectional area.

For this case, we don't use the elevation difference and therefore those terms can be cancelled.

When the area has reduced the velocity of the fluid is increased but there is a drop pressure through the valve.
