Kinetic energy = 1/2 × m × v^2
16 = 1/2 × m × 2^2
16 = 1/2 × m × 4
16 = 2 × m
16/2 = m
8 = m

so the mass is 8 kg

The lawn sprinkler consists of four arms that rotate in the horizontal plane. The diameter of each nozzle is 8 mm, and the water

sashaice [31]

Answer: the constant angular velocity of the arms is 86.1883 rad/sec

Explanation:

First we calculate the linear velocity of the single sprinkler;

Area of the nozzle = π/4 × d²

given that d = 8mm = 8 × 10⁻³

Area of the nozzle = π/4 × (8 × 10⁻³)²

A = 5.024 × 10⁻⁵ m²

Now total discharge is dived into 4 jets so discharge for single jet will be;

Q_single = Q / n = 0.006 / 4 = 1.5 × 10⁻³ m³/sec

So using continuity equation ;

Q_single = A × V_single

V_single = Q_single/A

we substitute

V_single = (1.5 × 10⁻³) / (5.024 × 10⁻⁵)

V_single = 29.8566 m/s

Now resolving the forces as shown in the second image,

Vt = Vcos30°

Vt = 29.8566 × cos30°

Vt = 25.8565 m/s

Finally we calculate the angular velocity;

Vt = rω

ω_single = Vt / r

from the given diagram, radius is 300mm = 0.3m

so we substitute

ω_single = 25.8565 / 0.3

ω_single = 86.1883 rad/sec

Therefore the constant angular velocity of the arms is 86.1883 rad/sec

The half-life of the reaction gets shorter as the initial concentration is increased. True or False

Art [367]

True

The half-life isn’t applicable to a first order reaction because it does not rely on the concentration of reactant present. However the 2nd order reaction is dependent on the concentration of the reactant present.

The relationship between the half life and the reactant is an inverse one.

The half life is usually reduced or shortened with an increase in the concentration and vice versa.

Newton's Gravitation Law

$\displaystyle \frac{GmM}{d^2}$

where G is a constant, M and M the masses e d the distance betwen masses.

$\displaystyle G\frac{5\cdot2}{x^2}=G\frac{6\cdot 2}{(2x+1)^2} \quad \sqrt{6}x=(2x+1)\sqrt {5} \quad x=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{6}-2\sqrt{5}}$

g If a car takes a banked curve at less than the ideal speed, friction is needed to keep it from sliding toward the inside of th

Reil [10]

Answer:

Speed; v = 17 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Radius; r = 110m

Angle; θ = 15°

Now, we know that in circular motion,

v² = rg•tanθ

Thus,

v = √(rg•tanθ)

Where,

v is velocity

r is radius

g is acceleration due to gravity

θ is the angle

Thus,

v = √(rg•tanθ) = √(110 x 9.8•tan15)

v = √(288.85)

v = 17 m/s
