You carry a fire hose up a ladder to a height of 10 m above ground level and aim the nozzle at a burning roof that is 9 m high.

You hold the hose horizontally and notice that the water strikes the roof at a horizontal distance of 7 m from where it exits the nozzle. The hose is connected to a large pressurized chamber in the fire truck 0.5 m above ground level. What is the pressure in the chamber

Answer:

The value is P_1  = 314645 \ Pa

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height is h_2  =  10  m

The height of the burning roof is k  =  9  m

The horizontal distance is d =  7 \  m

The height of the truck is h_1  =  0.5 \  m

Generally the time for the water to hit the roof from the hose is mathematically represented as

t =  \sqrt{\frac{2 *  (h_2 - k)}{g} }

=> t =  \sqrt{\frac{2 *  (10  - 9)}{9.8} }

=> t = 0.4518 \ s

Generally the velocity of the water is mathematically evaluated as

v_2  =  \frac{d}{t}

v_2  =  \frac{ 7}{0.4518}

v_2  =  15.5 \  m/s

Generally from Bernoulli's Equation we have that

P_1  + \frac{1}{2} v_1^2 * \rho + \rho *g *h_1  = P_2  + \frac{1}{2} v_2^2 * \rho + \rho *g *h_2

Here P_1 [\tex] is pressure in the chamber which we are to calculate , [tex]P_2 [\tex] is the atmospheric pressure with value  [tex]P_2 =  101325 \ Pa  [\tex] , [tex]v_1 [\tex] is the velocity of the water before it starts flowing with value [tex]v_1  =  0 m/s [\tex] , [tex]\rho [\tex]  is the density of water with value [tex]\rho =  1000 \ kg/m^3  [\tex] So         [tex]P_1  + \frac{1}{2} 0^2 * 1000 + 1000 *9.81 *0.5 = 101325  + \frac{1}{2}* 15.5^2* 1000 + 1000 *9.81 *10  

         P_1  = 314645 \ Pa

A satellite orbiting the moon very near the surface has a period of110 min. What is free-fall acceleration on the surface of the
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

1.54 m/s²

Explanation:

The free-fall acceleration is calculated as

g = w²r

Where w is the angular velocity of the satellite and r is the radius of the moon.

The angular velocity can be calculated as

w=\frac{2\pi}{T}

Where T is the period, so

T = 110 min = 110 x 60 s = 6600 s

Then,

w=\frac{2\pi}{6600\text{ s}}=9.52\times10^{-4}\text{ rad/s}

Finally, the radius of the moon is r = 1.7 x 10⁶ m, so the free-fall acceleration is

\begin{gathered} g=w^2r \\ g=(9.52\times10^{-4})^2(1.7\times10^6) \\ g=1.54\text{ m/s}^2 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is 1.54 m/s²

Check all that apply. An ammeter is used to measure current. An ammeter must be placed in parallel with a resistor to measure th
Juliette [100K]

<u>Out of all given choices, the following statements are true:</u>

  • An ammeter is used to measure current.
  • A voltmeter is used to measure voltage.
  • A voltmeter must be placed in parallel with a resistor to measure the voltage across the resistor.

Options A, E, and F

<u>Explanation:</u>

An instrument by which the current in a circuit is measured is  called ammeter whereas an instrument in which voltage is measured in a circuit is called a voltmeter . The ammeter is placed in series with the resistor while the voltmeter is placed in parallel with the resistor.

For the option B, since the ammeter must be placed in series with the resistor to measure current, it is false. Option C is false because an ammeter has zero internal resistance. Option D is also false because a voltmeter has a high internal resistance and is actually infinite.

Explain patient financial obligation for services rendered
Archy [21]

In every medical services rendered by a physician or hospital, a financial obligation must be paid by the insurance or the patient. Each patient is responsible to pay after each service for the professional fee, medical equipment, facilities, supplies and any medical services incurred during the encounter.

Moreover, the payment collected from the insurance or patient will be used in the medical industry where the cost of doing business has doubled each year such as office space and clinic or hospital staffs.

A negative charge of -0.00040 C and a positive charge of 0.00092 C are separated by 0.4 m. What is the force between the two cha
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

20654 N

Explanation:

Applying

F = kqq'/r²........... equation 1

Where F = Force between the charge, q = First charge, q' = second charge, r = distance betweeen the charge, k = coulomb's constant.

From the question,

Given: q = -0.0004 C, q' = 0.00092 C, r = 0.4 m

Constanr: k = 8.98×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values into equation 1

F = ( -0.0004×0.00092×8.98×10⁹)/(0.4²)

F = (3.30464×10³)/0.16

F = (3304.64)/0.16

F = 20654 N

Hence the force between the charges is 20654 N
