Problem: Suppose that the rate of flow of water through a fire hose is 21.4 kg/s and the stream of water from the hose moves at
Sloan [31]

Answer:

The force exerted is 318.86 N

Explanation:

The force exerted by such a stream is calculated by multiplying the mass flow rate of water by the velocity of the stream of water.

mass flow rate = 21.4 kg/s

velocity = 14.9 m/s

Force exerted = 21.4 kg/s × 14.9 m/s = 318.86 kgm/s^2 = 318.86 N

(a) what will an object weigh on the moon's surface if it weighs 100 n on earth's surface
juin [17]
We know the equation

weight = mass × gravity

To work out the weight on the moon, we will need its mass, and the gravitational field strength of the moon.
Remember that your weight can change, but mass stays constant.

So using the information given about the earth weight, we can find the mass by substituting 100N for weight, and we know the gravity on earth is 10Nm*2 (Use the gravitational field strength provided by your school, I am assuming yours in 10Nm*2)

Therefore,

100N = mass × 10
mass= 100N/10
mass= 10 kg

Now, all we need are the moon's gravitational field strength and to apply this to the equation

weight = 10kg × (gravity on moon)

A student wants to demonstrate entropy using the songs on her portable music player. What should she do to demonstrate the lowes
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:  A. play a single song by a single artist

Explanation: Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system.

A system that has more random distribution is considered to have more entropy and a system with ordered arrangement is considered to have less entropy.

Playing a single song by a single artist has least randomness , and lowest disorder and thus has lowest entropy.

Two identical cylinders at the same pressure contain the same gas. if cylinder a contains three times as much gas as cylinder b,
Alborosie

By ideal gas theory, cylinder b has the higher temperature.

We need to know about the ideal gas theory to solve this problem. The ideal gas can be represented by

P . V = n . R . T

where P is the pressure, V is volume, n is the number of molecules, R is the ideal gas constant and T is temperature.

From the question above, we know that

Pa = Pb = P

na = 3nb

Find the temperature of the cylinder a

P . V = n . R . Ta

Ta = P . V /( na . R )

Substitute na

Ta = P . V /( (3nb) . R )

Ta = (1/3) x (P . V /( (nb . R ))

Find the temperature of the cylinder b

P . V = n . R . Tb

Tb = P . V /( nb . R )

The cylinder a temperature is 3 times smaller than the temperature in cylinder b.
