Answer:

Patty climbs a tree. While sitting on a branch, she drops a leaf and an acorn at the sametime. What would happen? __The leaf would fall slower than the acorn due to air resistance, butif no air was there, they would fall at the same time.

Answer:

The force is $F= 46.25kN$

Explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

At Equilibrium the summation of the of force on the vertical axis is zero

i.e $\sum F_y =0$

=> $F_y sin \ 60^o =\rho Q (v_2 -v_1 cos \ 30^o)$

$v_2$ is the is the speed of water at the nozzle which can be mathematically evaluated as

$v_2 = \frac{R}{A_n}$

substituting $0.5m^3/s$ for R and $\frac{\pi}{4}(12*\frac{1m}{100} )^2$ for $A_n$

$v_2 = \frac{0.5}{\frac{\pi}{4} * (12*\frac{1}{100} )^2 }$

$= 44.23 m/s$

$v_1$ is the is the speed of water at the pipe which can be mathematically evaluated as

$v_1 = \frac{R}{A_p}$

substituting $0.5m^3/s$ for R and $\frac{\pi}{4}(30*\frac{1m}{100} )^2$ for $A_p$

$v_1 = \frac{0.5}{\frac{\pi}{4} * (30*\frac{1}{100} )^2 }$

$= 7.07 m/s$

$\rho$ is he density of water with value $\rho =1000 kg /m^3$

Substituting values into the equation above

$F_ysin 60^o = 1000 (0.5) (44.23 -7.07 cos 30)$

$= 21.99kN$

At Equilibrium the summation of the of force on the horizontal axis is zero

i.e $\sum F_x =0$

=> $F_y sin \ 30^o =\rho Q (v_2 -v_1 sin \ 30^o)$

Since The speed at both A and B nozzle are the same then $v_2$ remains the same

Substituting values

$F_x sin30^o =1000 (0.5) (44.23 - 7.07*sin30)$

=> $F_x = 40.69kN$

Hence the force acting on the flange bolts required to hold the nozzle in place is

$F = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2}$

$= \sqrt{40.69 ^2 + 21.99^2}$

$F= 46.25kN$

How does a pin hole camera work? And how do we see through them?

DIA [1.3K]

A pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens but with a tiny aperture, apinhole – effectively a light-proof box with a small hole in one side. Light from a scene passes through the aperture and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the box, which is known as the camera obscura effect.

Fill in the blank. Consider the inverse square law: When light leaves a light bulb, it spreads out over more and more space as i

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of light is inversely proportional to distance from source

I ∝ 1 /r² where I is intensity and r is distance from source . If I₁ and I₂ be intensity at distance r₁ and r₂ .

I₁ /I₂ = r₂² /r₁²

If r₂ = 4r₁ ( given )

I₁ / I₂ = (4r₁ )² / r₁²

= 16 r₁² / r₁²

I₁ / I₂ = 16

I₂ = I₁ / 16

So intensity will become 16 times less bright .

"16 times " is the answer .
