A fire hose held near the ground shoots water at a speed of 6.5 m/s. At what angle(s) should the nozzle point in order that the

Mariana [72]

Answer:

17.72° or 72.28°

Explanation:

u = 6.5 m/s

R = 2.5 m

Let the angle of projection is θ.

Use the formula for the horizontal range

$R=\frac{u^{2}Sin2\theta }{g}$

$2.5=\frac{6.5^{2}Sin2\theta }{9.8}$

Sin 2θ = 0.58

2θ = 35.5°

θ = 17.72°

As we know that the range is same for the two angles which are complementary to each other.

So, the other angle is 90° - 17.72° = 72.28°

Thus, the two angles of projection are 17.72° or 72.28°.

A 90 kg painter is standing on a horizontal wooden scaffolding of length 10 m, which is supported on each end by a rope. The pai

RSB [31]

Explanation:

For equilibrium, $\sum M = 0$ .

So, $8 m \times mg - (10 m) T_{1}$ = 0

$T_{1} = \frac{8 \times mg}{10}$

= $\frac{8 \times 90 \times 9.8}{10}$

= 705.6 N

Also, for equilibrium $\sum F_{y}$ = 0

$T_{1} + T_{2} - mg$ = 0

or, $T_{2} = mg - T_{1}$

= $90 \times 9.8 - 705.6$

= 176.4 N

Thus, we can conclude that the tension in the first rope is 176.4 N.

Hydraulic engineers often use, as a unit of volume of water, the "acre-foot", defined as the volume of water that will cover 1 a

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Volume = 1,015 acre-feet (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Rain = 1.7 in

Time = 30 min

Area = 29 km²

Find:

Volume in acre-feet

Computation:

1 km = 1,000 m

1 m = 3.28 feet

1 km² = 247.105 acre

d = 1.7 in = 1.7 / 12 = 0.14167 ft

Area = 29 × 247.105 = 7,166.045 acre

Volume = 7,166.045 acre × 0.14167 ft

Volume = 1,015 acre-feet (Approx)
