Water flows through a 2.5cm diameter pipe at a rate of

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

From the Bernoulli energy principle,

ΔP + 1/2ρΔv² = 0 -------------------------- eqn 1

where

ΔP = pressure drop = P2 - P1 = (1 - 0.25)x10⁵ N/m =7.5 x 10⁴N/m

Δv²= velocity change = v₂² - v₁²

ρ = water density = 1kg/m3

Recall volumetric flow rate, Q=A v = constant

A = cross sectional area = πr²=πd²/4

d=pipe diameter at point 2 = 2.5cm = 0.025m and Q =0.20m³/min = 0.00333m³/s

So A= 0.000491m²

we can get v2 = Q/A = 6.79m/s

From eqn 1, v₁² = 2(P2 - P1)/ρ + v₂²

v₁² = (2 x 7.5 x 10⁴)/1000 + 6.79²

v₁² = 196

v₁ = 14m/s

we can now get the area of the constriction point 2, A₁ = Q/v₁

A₁ = 0.000238m² and the diameter now will be d₁

d₁² = 4 x A₁ / π

= 4 x 0.000238/3.14 = 0.000303m²

d₁ = √0.000303 = 0.0174m

Therefore, the diameter of a constriction in the pipe at the new pressure = 0.0174m = 1.74cm

Help needed Can a body be accelerating if it is moving in circle

belka [17]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>When </em><em>a </em><em>body </em><em>is </em><em>moving </em><em>on </em><em>a </em><em>circle </em><em>it </em><em>is </em><em>accelerating </em><em>because </em><em>centripetal </em><em>acceleration</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>always </em><em>acting </em><em>on </em><em>it </em><em>towards </em><em>the </em><em>center.</em>

<em>Please </em><em>see</em><em> the</em><em> attached</em><em> picture</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em>

<em>From </em><em>the </em><em>above </em><em>diagram,</em><em>we </em><em>can </em><em>say </em><em>the </em><em>acceleration</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>always </em><em>acting </em><em>on </em><em>the </em><em>body </em><em>when </em><em>it </em><em>moves </em><em>in </em><em>a </em><em>circle.</em>

<em>Hope </em><em>this </em><em>helps.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em>

At $.110 per kWh, what does it cost to leave a 40-W porch light on day and night for a year?

nlexa [21]

The cost of electricity be $ 38.544.

<h3>What is electricity?</h3>

Electricity is the passage of charges in a conductor. From one end of the terminal to the other, charges are transmitted. Usually, the terminal moves from positive to negative. Since the nucleus holds the electrons loosely, they can move freely throughout the body.

Watts are units of power used to measure electrical output.

Price of electricity is $ 0.110 per kWh .

If a 40-W porch light on day and night for a year, total amount of electricity spend = power of the bulb × time

= 40 W × 1 year

= 40 W × 365 day

= 40 W × 365 ×24 h

= 350400 Wh

= 350.4 kWh.

Hence, the cost of electricity be = $350.4 × 0.110 = $ 38.544.

A mirrored-glass gazing globe in a garden is 28.0 cm in diameter. part a what is the focal length of the glob

olga nikolaevna [1]

For a curved mirror, the radius of curvature R is twice the focal length f:
$R=2f$ (1)
Since the diameter d is twice the radius R, we can rewrite (1) as
$\frac{d}{2} = 2f$
From which we can calculate the focal length from the diameter:
$f= \frac{d}{4}= \frac{28.0 cm}{4}=7.0 cm$
