Water from a fire hose is directed horizontally against a wall at a rate of 58.1 kg/s and a speed of 43.5 m/s. Calculate the mag

nitude of the force exerted on the wall (in N), assuming the water's horizontal momentum is reduced to zero.

Answer:

F = -2527.35 N

Explanation:

Given,

mass per unit time = 58.1 Kg/s

Speed of the water = 43.5 m/s

Final momentum = 0 kg/s

Force = Change in momentum

F = Final momentum - initial momentum

F = 0 - initial momentum

F = 0 -58.1\times 43.5

F = -2527.35 N

Hence, the Force exerted is equal to F = -2527.35 N

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

5.3 cm

Explanation:

This question is an illustration of real and apparent distance.

From the question, we have the following given parameters

Real Distance, R = 8.0cm

Refractive Index, μ = 1.5

Required

Determine the apparent distance (A)

The relationship between R, A and μ is:

μ = R/A

i.e.

Refractive Index = Real Distance ÷ Apparent Distance

Substitute values in the above formula

1.5 = 8/A

Multiply both sides by A

1.5 * A = A * 8/A

1.5A = 8

Divide both side by 1.5

1.5A/1.5 = 8/1.5

A = 8/1.5

A = 5.3cm

Hence, the letters would appear at a distance of 5.3cm

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

\theta=23.7^{\circ}

Explanation:

The ratio of pressure 2 to 1 us 5.48/1= 5.48 rounded off as 5.5.

Referring to table A.2 of modern compressible flow then M_{\beta_1}=2.2

Also

M_{\beta_1}=M_1 sin \beta and making sin\beta the subject of the formula then

sin\beta=\frac {2.2}{3.5}\\\beta=38.94^{\circ}

Making reference to \theta-\beta-M diagram then

\theta=23.7^{\circ}
