Water emerges straight down from a faucet with a 2.51-cm diameter at a speed of 3.04 m/s. (because of the construction of the fa

ucet, there is no variation in speed across the stream.) what is the diameter of the stream 0.200 m below the faucet? neglect any effects due to surface tension.

This is a question on conservation of energy. That is,
mgh + KE1 = KE2
mgh +1/2mv1^2 = 1/2mv2^2
gh + 1/2v1^2 = 1/2v2^2

Where, h = 0.2 m, v1 =3.04 m/s
Therefore,
v2 = Sqrt [2(gh+1/2v1^2)] = Sqrt [2(9.81*0.2 + 1/2*3.04^2)] = 7.26 m/s

Now, Volumetric flow rate, V/time, t = Surface area, A*velocity, v
Where,
V = Av = πD^2/4*3.04 = π*(2.51/100)^2*1/4*3.04 = 1.504*10^-3 m^3/s

At 0.2 m below,
V = 1.504*10^-3 m^3/s = A*7.26
A = (1.504*10^-3)/7.26 = 2.072*10^-4 m^2

But, A = πr^2
Then,
r = Sqrt (A/π) = Sqrt (2.072*10^-4/π) = 0.121*10^-3 m
Diameter = 2r = 0.0162 m = 1.62 cm

A 1500kg car double its speed from 50km/h to 100km/h. By how many times does the kinetic energy from the car's forward motion in
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inital KE = (1/2) m v^2 = (1/2) * 1500 * 50^2 = 1,875,000 J  

Final KE = (1/2) * 1500 * 100^2 = 7,500,000 J  

But  ,

4 * 1875000 = 7500000

so the KE has increased by 4 times.

Select the option that best summarizes the reason for the use of position-time graphs when studying physical science. (1 point)
Sedaia [141]

The position-time graphs show the relationship between the position of an object (shown on the y-axis) and the time (shown on the x-axis) to show velocity.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

Velocity is a vector quantity that tells the distance an object has traveled over a period of time.

Displacement is a vector quality showing total length of an area traveled by a particular object.

Imagine a time-position graph where the velocity of an object is constant. What will be observed on the graph concerning the slope of the line segment as well as the velocity of the object?

The slope of the line is equal to zero and the object will be stationary.

The position-time graphs show the relationship between the position of an object (shown on the y-axis) and the time (shown on the x-axis) to show velocity.
