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 block of mass m1 = 3.5 kg moves with velocity v1 = 6.3 m/s on a frictionless surface. it collides with block of mass m2 = 1.7
maxonik [38]
First, let's find the speed v_i of the two blocks m1 and m2 sticked together after the collision.
We can use the conservation of momentum to solve this part. Initially, block 2 is stationary, so only block 1 has momentum different from zero, and it is:
p_i = m_1 v_1
After the collision, the two blocks stick together and so now they have mass m_1 +m_2 and they are moving with speed v_i:
p_f = (m_1 + m_2)v_i
For conservation of momentum
p_i=p_f
So we can write
m_1 v_1 = (m_1 +m_2)v_i
From which we find
v_i =  \frac{m_1 v_1}{m_1+m_2}= \frac{(3.5 kg)(6.3 m/s)}{3.5 kg+1.7 kg}=4.2 m/s

The two blocks enter the rough path with this velocity, then they are decelerated because of the frictional force \mu (m_1+m_2)g. The work done by the frictional force to stop the two blocks is
\mu (m_1+m_2)g  d
where d is the distance covered by the two blocks before stopping.
The initial kinetic energy of the two blocks together, just before entering the rough path, is
\frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_i^2
When the two blocks stop, all this kinetic energy is lost, because their velocity becomes zero; for the work-energy theorem, the loss in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the frictional force:
\frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_i^2 =\mu (m_1+m_2)g  d
From which we can find the value of the coefficient of kinetic friction:
\mu =  \frac{v_i^2}{2gd}= \frac{(4.2 m/s)^2}{2(9.81 m/s^2)(1.85 m)}=0.49

Minority group
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Minority group - People who are singled  out for unequal treatment  and who regard  themselves as objects of  collective discrimination.

Ethnicity - A shared identity based on  cultural elements such as  heritage, language, and  religion.

Majority group - A group's subset that  consists of more than half  of the entire group's  members.

Race - A socially constructed  group of people who share  physical characteristics  that are considered  significant by a society  and that are used to  distinguish them from  other groups.

Explanation:

To better understand the above-mentioned definitions we would use some examples:

Elder people can be considered as a minority group in the United States because of their reduced status as a consequence of popular discrimination and prejudice against them. In contrast to them, young men consisting of more than half the population in the age category is an example of the majority group.

Groups of people like Hispanic Americans, Jews, Italian America, Irish are some examples of people belonging to different ethnic backgrounds residing in the U.S.

African Americans who are distinguished based on their skin color is an example of race.

a parking lot is going to be 60m wide and 240m long which dimensions could be used please please help
Bezzdna [24]

Answer: The area of the parking lot is 14,400 meters squared.

Explanation:

We have the dimensions of the parking lot.

60m by 240m

The units used here are meters.

Now, if we want to know the area of the parking lot is equal to the product between the length and the width:

A = 60m*240m = 14,400 m^2

The area of the parking lot is 14,400 meters squared.
