Pumping of groundwater in California most effectively: Select one:

Physics
1 answer:
maria [59]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Ans- A, causes sediments in aquifers that are emptied to compact and the ground above it to sink.

This is one of the major problems for California nowadays. Due to excessive groundwater pumping to satisfy the demand of huge population the aquifers are drying, hence compacting and for that the land above sinks.

A runner begins running at the beginning of 7th period and stops running at the end of the period. She runs at a pace of 10 km/h
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

She run for, t = 0.92 s

Explanation:

Given data,

The velocity of the runner, v = 10 km/h

The distance covered by the runner, d = 9.2 km

The relationship between the velocity, displacement and time is given by the formula,

                           t = d / v

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                           t = 9.2 / 10

                             = 0.92 s

Hence, she ran for, t = 0.92 s

How many joules of kinetic energy does a pendulum have when it has 100 joules of potential energy
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The maximum kinetic energy is 100 j.    

Explanation:

<h3>The kinetic energy = (potential energy) + (kinetic energy) and the potential energy of 0 J implying its kinetic energy is 100 J, which is its maximum. </h3>

Pikes Peak near Denver, Colorado, has an elevation of 14,110 ft. Calculate the pressure at this elevation using three different
kramer

Answer:

a) P = 1240 lb/ft^2

b) P = 1040 lb/ft^2

c) P = 1270 lb/ft^2

Explanation:

Given:

- P_a = 2216.2 lb/ft^2

- β = 0.00357 R/ft

- g = 32.174 ft/s^2

- T_a = 518.7 R

- R = 1716 ft-lb / slug-R

- γ = 0.07647 lb/ft^3

- h = 14,110 ft

Find:

(a) Determine the pressure at this elevation using the standard atmosphere equation.

(b) Determine the pressure assuming the air has a constant specific weight of 0.07647 lb/ft3.

(c) Determine the pressure if the air is assumed to have a constant temperature of 59 oF.

Solution:

- The standard atmospheric equation is expressed as:

                           P = P_a* ( 1 - βh/T_a)^(g / R*β)

                          (g / R*β) = 32.174 / 1716*0.0035 = 5.252

                            P = 2116.2*(1 - 0.0035*14,110/518.7)^5.252

                            P = 1240 lb/ft^2

- The air density method which is expressed as:

                            P = P_a - γ*h

                            P = 2116.2 - 0.07647*14,110

                            P = 1040 lb/ft^2

- Using constant temperature ideal gas approximation:

                            P = P_a* e^ ( -g*h / R*T_a )

                            P = 2116.2* e^ ( -32.174*14110 / 1716*518.7 )

                            P = 1270 lb/ft^2
