Answer:
p2 = 9.8×10^4 Pa
Explanation:
Total pressure is constant and PT = P = 1/2×ρ×v^2
So p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 = p2 + 1/2×ρ×(v2)^2
from continuity we have ρ×A1×v1 = ρ×A2×v2
v2 = v1×A1/A2
and
r2 = 2×r1
then:
A2 = 4×A1
so,
v2 = (v1)/4
then:
p2 = p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 - 1/2×ρ×(v2)^2 = p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 - 1/2×ρ×(v1/4)^2
p2 = 3.0×10^4 Pa + 1/2×(1000 kg/m^3)×(12m/s)^2 - 1/2×(1000kg/m^3)×(12^2/16)
= 9.75×10^4 Pa
= 9.8×10^4 Pa
Therefore, the pressure in the wider section is 9.8×10^4 Pa
Answer:
If the ball were thrown from the ground or even landed at an equal height (40m here), then yes, the time would be a 1:1 ratio of flight to fall.
But the ball is thrown from a height of 40m, so it will take longer to hit the ground.
For example, while it may take, say, 3 seconds to go up to its max height and 3 seconds to reach it's original height again, it may take 4 more seconds to finally reach the ground.
