A gate in an irrigation canal is constructed in the form of a trapezoid 2 m wide at the bottom, 38 m wide at the top, and 2 m hi

gh. It is placed vertically in the canal so that the water just covers the gate. Find the hydrostatic force on one side of the gate.
Note that your answer should be in Newtons, and use g = 9.8 m/s2.

4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Area of trapezoid =[(2 + 38) / 2 ] x 2 = 40 sq m .

Pressure at the centre of the trapezium

= h d g = 1 x 10³ x 9.8 N / m²  ( height of centre is 1 m )

= 9800 N /m²

Total force required = pressure at the centre x total area

9800 x 40 = 392 x 10³ N.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

0.5 , 54.5

Explanation:

for acceleration we should derivate the equation 2 times

x=3t³+t²/4

v=9t²+t/2

a=18t+1/2

a(0)=0.5

What are the effects of ultraviolet sun rays????​
pychu [463]

Answer: UV rays, either from the sun or from artificial sources like tanning beds, can cause sunburn. Exposure to UV rays can cause premature aging of the skin and signs of sun damage such as wrinkles, leathery skin, liver spots, actinic keratosis, and solar elastosis. UV rays can also cause eye problems.

Explanation: Uv means ultraviolet

Six new refrigerator prototypes are tested in the laboratory. For each refrigerator, the electrical power P needed for it to ope
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

performance coefficient from largest to the smallest

P= 500 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 2000 J/s

P= 250 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1000 J/s

P= 750 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1500 J/s

) P= 400 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1200 J/s

P= 500 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1500 J/s

P= 1000 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 3000 J/s.

the rate at which they raise the temperature of the room.

2.1.P= 1000 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 3000 J/s

P= 500 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 2000 J/s

P= 750 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1500 J/s

P= 500 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1500 J/s

P= 400 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1200 J/s

P= 250 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1000 J/s

Explanation:

A refrigerator is a device that uses work to remove heat energy from a cold reservoir and deposit it into a hot reservoir. .A good refrigerator (with a large performance coefficient) will remove a large amount of heat energy from the cold reservoir for a small amount of work input

The performance coefficient  of a refrigerator is defined as the ratio of the heat energy removed from the cold reservoir  to the work  input to the refrigerator:

k=QC/W

power is defined as work per unit time

1.k=1500/750=2

2. 1200/400=3

3.2000/500=4

4.1000/250=4

5.1500/500=3

6.3000/1000=3

performance coefficient from largest to the smallest

P= 500 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 2000 J/s

P= 250 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1000 J/s

P= 750 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1500 J/s

) P= 400 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1200 J/s

P= 500 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1500 J/s

P= 1000 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 3000 J/s

2, Rate at which they raise the temperature of the room.

rate at which temperature rises in the inner chamber of the refrigerator is proportional to the rate of energy used to dispel heat from the refrigerator

1.P= 1000 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 3000 J/s

P= 500 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 2000 J/s

P= 750 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1500 J/s

P= 500 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1500 J/s

P= 400 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1200 J/s

P= 250 W, Qc,max/deltaT= 1000 J/s

The table below shows the right ascensions of two stars at a location.
noname [10]
Star 1 - 4 hours right ascension
 Star 2 - 3 hours right ascension
 Subtracting hours right ascension
 4 hours right ascension - 3 hours right ascension = 1 hours right ascension.
Thus,
 star 1 will rise 1 hour before star 2

One electron collides elastically with a second electron initially at rest. After the collision, the radii of their trajectories
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

114.92749 keV

Explanation:

r = Radius of trajectory

m = Mass of electron = 9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg

B = Magnetic field = 0.044 T

q = Charge of electron = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

The centripetal force and the magnetic forces are conserved

m\frac{v^2}{r}=Bqv\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{Bqr}{m}

Velocity of first electron

v=\frac{Bqr_1}{m}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{0.044\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.01}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}\\\Rightarrow v_1=77277716.79473\ m/s

Velocity of second electron

v=\frac{Bqr_2}{m}\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{0.044\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.024}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}\\\Rightarrow v_2=185466520.30735\ m/s

Total kinetic energy is given by

K=K_1+K_2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}m(v_1^2+v_2^2)\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}\times 9.11\times 10^{-31}(77277716.79473^2+185466520.30735^2)\\\Rightarrow K=1.83884\times 10^{-14}\ J

Converting to eV

1\ J=\frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV

1.83884\times 10^{-14}\ J=1.83884\times 10^{-14}\times \frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV\\ =114927.49\ ev=114.92749\ keV

The energy of incident electron is 114.92749 keV
