Answer:

v_{bR} = 25 km/h towards west

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of the blue car as appear to the bicycle rider is given as

v_{bc} = 50 km/h towards west

also it is given that bicycle is moving at speed of 10 km/h towards East

so here we have

v_{bc} = v_b - v_c

so we have

v_b = v_{bc} + v_c

v_b = -50 + 10 = 40 km/h towards west

now speed of the red car is given as 15 km/h towards west

so here the relative speed of blue car with respect to red car is given as

v_{bR} = v_b - v_R

v_{bR} = 40 - 15 = 25 km/h towards west

Consider a system of a cliff diver and the earth. the gravitational potential energy of the system decreases by 28,000 j as the
olga2289 [7]

The decrease in gravitational potential energy of the system is given by

\Delta U = (mg) \Delta h

where

m is the mass, g is the gravitational acceleration, and \Delta h is the variation of height of the system.


(mg) also corresponds to the weight of the diver, therefore if we rearrange the equation and we use \Delta U=28000 J and \Delta h=32.0 m, we can find her weight:

mg=\frac{\Delta U}{\Delta h}=\frac{28000 J}{32 m}=875 N

Two pipes move the same amount of ideal fluid in the same amount of time. One pipe has a 2 in. diameter; the other has a 3 in. d
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

a) 3-in. pipe

Explanation:

Given that

Fluid flow is in same amount in the same time it means that volume flow rate is same for the pipes

Volume flow rate

Q = A V

A=Area ,V=Velocity

A=\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

If diameter d is more then the velocity will be less for same volume flow rate .We also Know that if pressure is more then the velocity will be less.

The second pipe 3 in diameter having more diameter then the velocity will be less but the pressure will be more.

That is why the 3 in diameter is having more pressure than 2 in diameter pipe.

Therefore the answer will be a.

a) 3-in diameter  pipe
