Answer:

b. slow-moving streams.

Explanation:

In Fluid Mechanics, the Reynolds numbers indicates the existence of turbulence in fluid streams. Low Reynolds numbers are related with laminar flow. The Reynolds formula is:

$Re = \frac{\rho_{water} \cdot L_{c}}{\mu_{water}} \cdot v$

The Reynolds number is directly proportional to fluid speed. Hence, slow-moving streams are a sound example of laminar flow. The correct answer is B.

Explain how Pascal's principle can be used to design a fluid power system and describe how a fluid power system works.

zhenek [66]

Pascal's law of fluid transfer states that when there is an increase in fluid pressure, the rest of the extrinsic variables also increases. For example, in a flow of liquid in an orifice, there is a contraction of diameter in the orifice part. The fluid that will go in there increases in pressure and thereby an increase in velocity as well.

What quantity of heat must be removed from 20g<br>of water at 0°C to change it to ice at 0°C?

seraphim [82]

The quantity of heat must be removed is 1600 cal or 1,6 kcal.

<h3>Explanation : </h3>

From the question we will know if the condition of ice is at the latent point. So, the heat level not affect the temperature, but it can change the object existence. So, for the formula we can use.

$\boxed {\bold {Q = m \times L}}$

If :

Q = heat of latent (cal or J )
m = mass of the thing (g or kg)
L = latent coefficient (cal/g or J/kg)

<h3>Steps : </h3>

If :

m = mass of water = 20 g => its easier if we use kal/g°C
L = latent coefficient = 80 cal/g

Q = ... ?

Answer :

$Q = m \times L \\ Q = 20 \times 80 = 1600 \: cal$

So, the quantity of heat must be removed is 1600 cal or 1,6 kcal.

If 3,600 J of work is done in 3.0 s, what is the power?

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

1,200 watts

Explanation:

1 watt = 1 Joule (J) of work / second

So, 3600 Joules of work / 3 seconds is:

3600 J / 3 seconds = 1,200 watts

In a video game, a flying coconut moves at a constant velocity of 20 meters/second. The coconut hits an obstacle and moves in th

qwelly [4]

Change in velocity = Final velocity - Initial velocity

Initial velocity = 20 m/s
Final velocity = 10 m/s

Change in velocity = 10 - 20 = -10m/s

Erica is participating in a road race. The first part of the race is on a 5.2-mile-long straight road oriented at an angle of 25

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

8.6 miles

Explanation:

We need to calculate the components of the total displacement along the east-west and north-south directions first.

In the first part, Erica moves 5.2 miles at 25∘ north of east. So the components of this displacement along the two directions are:

East: $d_{1x} = 5.2 cos 25^{\circ}=4.7 mi$
