While walking past a construction site, a person notices a pipe sticking out of a second floor window with water pouring out. As

the water flows to the ground, it speeds up due to the effect of gravity. How does the diameter of the flowing stream of water change as it descends? Assuming that the flow remains laminar, its diameter

Answer:

Its diameter increases as it flows down from the pipe. Assuming laminar flow for the water, then Bernoulli's equation can be applied.

P1-P2 + (rho)g(h1 - h2) + 1/2(rho)(v1² - v2²) = 0

Explanation:

P1 = P2 = atmospheric pressure so, P1 - P2 = 0

h1 is greater than h2 so h1-h2 is positive. Rearranging the equation above 2{ (rho)g(h1-h2) + 1/2(rho)v1²}/rho = v2²

From the continuity equation for fluids

A1v1 = A2v2

v2 = A1v1/A2

Substituting into the equation above

(A1v1/A2)² = 2{ (rho)g(h1-h2) + 1/2(rho)v1²}/rho

Making A2² the subject of the formula,

A2² = (A1v1)²× rho/(2{ (rho)g(h1-h2) + 1/2(rho)v1²}

The denominator will be greater than the numerator and as a result the diameter of the flowing stream decreases.

Thank you for reading.

If two people standing on a scooter board push off of each other what happens ( Newton’s 3rd law )
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:They will go off in opposite directions with the same force.

Explanation:

Newton's Third Law states that for every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction. If two people are standing on a scooter and push off each other (following the Law), it should come to the conclusion that they could go off in opposite with the same force.

protons in an atomic nucleus are typically 10-15 m apart. what is the electric force of repulsion between nuclear protons?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

230 Newton

Electric charge consists of two types i.e. positively electric charge and negatively electric charge.There was a famous scientist who investigated about this charges. His name is Coulomb and succeeded in formulating the force of attraction or repulsion between two charges i.e. :

F = electric force (N)

k = electric constant (N m² / C²)

q = electric charge (C)

r = distance between charges (m)

The value of k in a vacuum = 9 x 10⁹ (N m² / C²)

F = k(q1 q2)/ r^2

Distance between protons = d = 10⁻¹⁵ m

charge of proton = q = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

Here q1=q2

electric force = F =230N

Coulomb's Law. Two protons in an atomic nucleus are typically separated by a distance of 2×10−15m. The electric repulsive force between the protons is huge, but the attractive nuclear force is even stronger and keeps the nucleus from bursting apart.

2 Nuclei and the Need for an Attractive Nuclear Force. The Coulomb force also acts within atomic nucleii, whose characteristic dimension is 10 m, which is called a fermi. There are two protons in a He nucleus, which repel each other because of the Coulomb force.

A basic physics question
Anna71 [15]
<h3>1)</h3>

No,kinetic energy cannot be negative since its given by KE=mv²,mass cannot be negative and the square of speed cannot b negative.

<h3>2)</h3>

Yes,any force opposing motion or displacement does negative work. They are often referred to as resistive forces (friction,air resistance,drag...)

<h3>3)</h3>

Nope it does not, it just forces the object to move in a circular path known as a centripetal force. It can accelerate an object by changing it's direction but not it's speed.

<h3>4)</h3>

No it cannot,If an object is sliding on the table (assuming it is not an incline), then most probably that normal force cancels out the weights effect or assuming there is an incline, it cancels the weight's y component.

<h3>5)</h3>

w = f.d.cos \alpha  = f.d.cos90 = 0

The work done is zero

<h3>6)</h3>

w = f.d.cos \theta = f.d.cos0 = f.d

The work is just the product of the magnitude of the force exerted and the displacement of the object.

<h3>7)</h3>

0 <  \theta < 90 \\ 1 < cos \theta < 0

<h3>Work is decreasing but positive</h3>

<h3>8)</h3>

\theta = 90 \\ cos \theta = cos90 = 0

<h3>Work is zero</h3>

<h3>9)</h3>

90 <  \theta < 180 \\ 0 < cos \theta <  - 1

<h3>Work is negative</h3>
