To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the continuity of fluids in a pipeline and apply Bernoulli's balance on the given speeds.

Our values are given as

d_1 = 2.5cm \rightarrow r_1=1.25cm=1.25*10^{-2}m

d_2 = 1.2cm \rightarrow r_2 = 0.6cm = 0.6*10^{-2}m

From the continuity equations in pipes we have to

A_1V_1 = A_2 V_2

Where,

A_{1,2} = Cross sectional Area at each section

V_{1,2} = Flow Velocity at each section

Then replacing we have,

(\pi r_1^2) v_1 = (\pi r_2^2) v_2

(1.25*10^{-2})^2 v_1 = ( 0.06*10^{-2})^2 v_2

v_2 = \frac{(1.25*10^{-2})^2 }{0.6*10^{-2})^2} v_1

From Bernoulli equation we have that the change in the pressure is

\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} \rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)

7.3*10^3 = \frac{1}{2} (1000)([ \frac{(1.25*10^{-2})^2 }{0.6*10^{-2})^2} v_1 ]^2-v_1^2)

7300= 8919.01 v_1^2

v_1 = 0.9m/s

Therefore the speed of flow in the first tube is 0.9m/s

What forces contribute to density
mixer [17]
No force contributes to density, the density is a physical quantity that is defined as being \rho = m/V 
 the raport between the mass of the object and its volume. However if you want to measure the density of an object you might want to determine its gravity force (weight) G=mg from which knowing the gravitational acceleratin you can find its mass m=G/g
 
where G is given in Newtons and g=9.81 is given in  (m/s^2)

A sample of gas in a syringe releases heat to its surroundings while the
blsea [12.9K]

Answer: b

Explanation:

When heat is released by the system i.e. system loses heat. So, we take it as negative -Q

When the work is done on the system then it is considered as negative work on the system i.e. -W  

In this case, the plunger is pulled out, and work is done on the system. So, we take work as negative work -W

Correct option is b

A wave transfers:<br> Water<br> particles<br> energy<br> matter
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Particles in a water wave exchange kinetic energy for potential energy. When particles in water become part of a wave, they start to move up or down. This means that kinetic energy (energy of movement) has been transferred to them

"In a pure substance all the particles must be identical; therefore pure substances are composed only of elements." Do you agree
kenny6666 [7]

I do not agree with the statement.
The "substance" can be a compound.  It's "pure"
as long as there's nothing else in it but its name.

'Pure' water is 100% H₂O with nothing else in it.
'Pure' table salt is 100% NaCl with nothing else in it.
'Pure' carbon dioxide is 100% CO₂ with nothing else in it.

These example substances are all compounds, not elements.
