Squids and octopuses propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracti
Alex

Answer:

A) The speed of the water must be 8.30 m/s.

B) Total kinetic energy created by this maneuver is 70.12 Joules.

Explanation:

A) Mass of squid with water = 6.50 kg

Mass of water in squid cavuty = 1.55 kg

Mass of squid = m_1=6.50 kg- 1.55 kg=4.95 kg

Velocity achieved by squid = v_1=2.60 m/s

Momentum gained by squid = P=m_1v_1

Mass of water = m_2=1.55 kg

Velocity by which water was released by squid = v_2

Momentum gained by water but in opposite direction = P'=m_2v_2

P = P'

m_1v_1=m_2v_2

v_2=\frac{m_1v_1}{m_2}=\frac{4.95 kg\times 2.60 m/s}{1.55 kg}=8.30 m/s

B) Kinetic energy does the squid create by this maneuver:

Kinetic energy of squid = K.E  =\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^{2}

Kinetic energy of water = K.E' = \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^{2}

Total kinetic energy created by this maneuver:

K.E+K.E'=\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^{2}+\frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^{2}

=\frac{1}{2}\times 4.95 kg\times (2.60 m/s)^2+\frac{1}{2}\times 1.55 kg\times (8.30 m/s)^2=70.12 Joules

During heavy rain, a section of a mountainside measuring 2.5 km horizontally, 0.80 km up along the slope, and 2.0 m deep slips i
Crank

Answer:

The mass of the mud is 3040000 kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

length = 2.5 km

Width = 0.80 km

Height = 2.0 m

Length of valley = 0.40 km

Width of valley = 0.40 km

Density = 1900 Kg/m³

Area = 4.0 m²

We need to calculate the mass of the mud

Using formula of density

\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}

m=\rho\times V

Where, V = volume of mud

\rho = density of mud

Put the value into the formula

m=1900\times4.0\times0.40\times10^{3}

m =3040000\ kg

Hence, The mass of the mud is 3040000 kg.
