Water flows through a 2.5cm diameter pipe at a rate of

Answer:

From the Bernoulli energy principle,

ΔP + 1/2ρΔv² = 0 -------------------------- eqn 1

where

ΔP = pressure drop = P2 - P1 = (1 - 0.25)x10⁵ N/m =7.5 x 10⁴N/m

Δv²= velocity change = v₂² - v₁²

ρ = water density = 1kg/m3

Recall volumetric flow rate, Q=A v = constant

A = cross sectional area = πr²=πd²/4

d=pipe diameter at point 2 = 2.5cm = 0.025m and Q =0.20m³/min = 0.00333m³/s

So A= 0.000491m²

we can get v2 = Q/A = 6.79m/s

From eqn 1, v₁² = 2(P2 - P1)/ρ + v₂²

v₁² =  (2 x 7.5 x 10⁴)/1000 + 6.79²

v₁² = 196

v₁ = 14m/s

we can now get the area of the constriction point 2, A₁ = Q/v₁

A₁ = 0.000238m² and the diameter now will be d₁

d₁² = 4 x A₁ / π

     = 4 x 0.000238/3.14 = 0.000303m²

d₁ = √0.000303 = 0.0174m

Therefore, the diameter of  a constriction in the pipe  at the new pressure = 0.0174m = 1.74cm

padilas [110]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Solar radiation at frequencies of visible light passes through the atmosphere, heating the planet's surface, subsequently this energy is emitted in infrared thermal radiation. This radiation is absorbed by the gases produced by the combustion of fossil fuels. Therefore, the greater the amount of these gases in the atmosphere, the more heat will be trapped in the earth, raising its global temperature.
