Normally, the water pressure inside a pump is higher than the vapor pressure: in this case, at the interface between the liquid and the vapor, molecules from the liquid escapes into vapour form. Instead, when the pressure of the water becomes lower than the vapour pressure, molecules of vapour can go inside the water forming bubbles: this phenomenon is called
cavitation.
So, cavitation occurs when the pressure of the water becomes lower than the vapour pressure. In our problem, vapour pressure at
is 1.706 kPa. Therefore, the lowest pressure that can exist in the pump without cavitation, at this temperature, is exactly this value: 1.706 kPa.
Answer: a) 12857.1 m/s/s b) 578.6 N
Explanation:
Impulse = change in momentum
Ft = mV2 - mV1
V = AT, 45 / .0035 = 12857.1 m/s/s
(b) .045 x 12857.1 = 578.6 N
Answer:
X-Positions: Y-Positions
x(0) = 0 y(0) = 0
x(2) = 120 m y(2) = 19.6 m
x(4) = 240 m y(4) = 78.4 m
x(6) = 360 m y(6) = 176.4 m
x(8) = 480 m y(8) = 313 m
x(10) = 600m y (10) = 490 m
Explanation:
X-Positions
- First, we choose to take the horizontal direction as our x-axis, and the positive x-axis as positive.
- After being thrown, in the horizontal direction, no external influence acts on the stone, so it will continue in the same direction at the same initial speed of 60. 0 m/s
- So, in order to know the horizontal position at any time t, we can apply the definition of average velocity, rearranging terms, as follows:
- It can be seen that after 2 s, the displacement will be 120 m, and each 2 seconds, as the speed is constant, the displacement will increase in the same 120 m each time.
Y-Positions
- We choose to take the vertical direction as our y-axis, taking the downward direction as our positive axis.
- As both axes are perpendicular each other, both movements are independent each other also, so, in the vertical direction, the stone starts from rest.
- At any moment, it is subject to the acceleration of gravity, g.
- As the acceleration is constant, we can find the vertical displacement (taking the height of the cliff as the initial reference level), using the following kinematic equation:
- Replacing by the values of t, we get the following vertical positions, from the height of the cliff as y = 0:
- y(2) = 2* 9.8 m/s2 = 19.6 m
- y(4) = 8* 9.8 m/s2 = 78.4 m
- y(6) = 18*9.8 m/s2 = 176.4 m
- y(8) = 32*9.8 m/s2 = 313.6 m
- y(10)= 50 * 9.8 m/s2 = 490.0 m
This number has 3 sig figs.
Hydroelectricity is the best answer.
