(a) 5.66 m/s
The flow rate of the water in the pipe is given by

where
Q is the flow rate
A is the cross-sectional area of the pipe
v is the speed of the water
Here we have

the radius of the pipe is
r = 0.260 m
So the cross-sectional area is

So we can re-arrange the equation to find the speed of the water:

(b) 0.326 m
The flow rate along the pipe is conserved, so we can write:

where we have

and where
is the cross-sectional area of the pipe at the second point.
Solving for A2,

And finally we can find the radius of the pipe at that point:

Explanation:
It is given that,
Focal length of the concave mirror, f = -13.5 cm
Image distance, v = -37.5 cm (in front of mirror)
Let u is the object distance. It can be calculated using the mirror's formula as :



u = -21.09 cm
The magnification of the mirror is given by :


m = -1.77
So, the magnification produced by the mirror is (-1.77). Hence, this is the required solution.
The solid, liquid and gas phases of water would have the same structure of the molecules since they are same substance. The only difference would be the distances of the molecules in the container. For a ice, the molecules are close to each other where the molecules vibrate only in place. For liquid, the molecules are freely moving and are at some distance with each other but not that far away with each other. Steam, on the other hand, would have molecules that are very far from each other and are freely moving in the whole container. As the container is heated, the size of the molecules would not change. It is only the volume that has changed. Also, the mass is the same since there is no outflow of the substances.
Answer:
Option (B)
Explanation:
In the stabilizing natural selection, the extreme traits from both the ends are eliminated by natural selection and natural selection favors the intermediate trait. So over time individuals having the intermediate traits are selected over the individuals having extreme traits.
So here the population of the bat which possesses moderate wing length is selected over the individual with extreme traits like individuals with short wings and long wings. As a result, the population of moderate length wing bats increased.
Therefore the correct answer is (B)- stabilizing natural selection.
