An irrigation channel has a rectangular cross section of 1.5 ft deep x 11 ft wide on the input side. On the far end of the chann

el, the channel expands to 6 ft wide while maintaining the same depth. If the water flowing into the channel has a speed of 30 ft/sec, calculate the velocity of the water flow on the far end of the channel.

Answer:

55 ft/s

Explanation:

A₁ = Area of rectangular cross-section at input side = 1.5 x 11 = 16.5 ft²

A₂ = Area of rectangular cross-section at far end = 1.5 x 6 = 9 ft²

v₁ = speed of water at the input side of channel = 30 ft/s

v₂ = speed of water at the input side of channel = ?

Using equation of continuity

A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

(16.5) (30) = (9) v₂

v₂ = 55 ft/s

A 32.5 g cube of aluminum initially at 45.8 °C is submerged into 105.3 g of water at 15.4 °C. What is the final temperature of b
lakkis [162]

Answer:

T = 17.26 ^oC

Explanation:

At thermal equilibrium we have heat given by aluminium must be equal to the heat absorbed by the water

so we will have

Q_1 = Q_2

m_1s_1\Delta T_1 = m_2s_2\Delta T_2

so we will have

32.5(900)(45.8 - T) = 105.3(4186)(T - 15.4)

so we have

(45.8 - T) = 15.1(T - 15.4)

so we have

16.1 T = 277.87

T = 17.26 ^oC

Sally goes on a hike. The distance she walks compared to the amount of time she walks is shown on the graph. Which statement is
Neko [114]
According to the task there should be the graph that supports Sally's hike, but after looking on the options it seems that Sally doesn't walks at a constant rate and there is the negative option that coincides with my thoughts. So, I bet the false statement is the third option represented in the scale above.

What do tendons connect skeletal muscles to?​
Doss [256]

Answer:

Tendons connect muscle to bone. These tough, yet flexible, bands of fibrous tissue attach the skeletal muscles to the bones they move. Essentially, tendons enable you to move; think of them as intermediaries between muscles and bones.

Hope this helps! (:
