Answer:

a = = 37.2V

b = 13.39MJ

Explanation:

Given that

L = 170 × 10³

r = d/2

= 10cm / 2 = 5 cm

current I = 100A

we are to find the potential drop across the cable

so, we can use ohm’s law

V = IR = I (ρL/A)

ρ = resistivity of the copper

= 1.72 × 10⁻⁸ Ω.m

A = πr²

V = I(ρL/πr²)

= 100 (( 1.72 × 10⁻⁸ * 170 × 10³) / ( π * 0.05²))

= 37.2V

(b)

Energy (loss) = Pt

Enery (loss) = IVt

3600s per hour

= (100A)(37.2V)(3600s)

= 13.39MJ

The pressure drop in pascal is 3.824*10^4 Pascals.

To find the answer, we need to know about the Poiseuille's formula.

<h3>How to find the pressure drop in pascal?</h3>

We have the Poiseuille's formula,

$Q=\frac{\pi r^4P}{8\beta l}$

where, Q is the rate of flow, P is the pressure drop, r is the radius of the pipe, is the coefficient of viscosity (0.95Pas-s for Glycerin) and l being the length of the tube.

By substituting values and rearranging we will get the pressure drop as,

$P=3.284Pascals$

Thus, we can conclude that, the pressure drop in pascal is 3.824*10^4.

Answer:

The x-component of $F_{3}$ is 56.148 newtons.

Explanation:

From 1st and 2nd Newton's Law we know that a system is at rest when net acceleration is zero. Then, the vectorial sum of the three forces must be equal to zero. That is:

$\vec F_{1} + \vec F_{2} + \vec F_{3} = \vec O$ (1)

Where:

$\vec F_{1}$ , $\vec F_{2}$ , $\vec F_{3}$ - External forces exerted on the ring, measured in newtons.

$\vec O$ - Vector zero, measured in newtons.

If we know that $\vec F_{1} = (70.711,70.711)\,[N]$ , $\vec F_{2} = (-126.859, 46.173)\,[N]$ , $F_{3} = (F_{3,x},F_{3,y})$ and $\vec O = (0,0)\,[N]$ , then we construct the following system of linear equations:
