A particular interaction force does work wint inside a system. the potential energy of the interaction is u. which equation rela

larisa86 [58]

ΔU = -Wint

Consdier the work of of interaction is W =m*g*h - equation -1

and the Potential energy U.

Final Potential energy Uf =0 , And the Initial Potential Energy Ui =m*g*h

Now we will write the equation for a Change in Potential energy ΔU,

ΔU = Uf - Ui

= 0-m*g*h

ΔU = -m*g*h --Equation 2

Now compare the both equation

Wint = -ΔU

we can rewrite the above equation

ΔU = -W.

So our Answer is ΔU = -W. .

Water is pumped steadily out of a flooded basement at a speed of 5.4 m/s through a uniform hose of radius 0.83 cm. The hose pass

Gala2k [10]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the flow as a function of the volume in a certain time, as well as the potential and kinetic energy that act on the pump and the fluid.

The work done would be defined as

$\Delta W = \Delta PE + \Delta KE$

Where,

PE = Potential Energy

KE = Kinetic Energy

$\Delta W = (\Delta m)gh+\frac{1}{2}(\Delta m)v^2$

Where,

m = Mass

g = Gravitational energy

h = Height

v = Velocity

Considering power as the change of energy as a function of time we will then have to

$P = \frac{\Delta W}{\Delta t}$

$P = \frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t}(gh+\frac{1}{2}v^2)$

The rate of mass flow is,

$\frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t} = \rho_w Av$

Where,

$\rho_w$ = Density of water

A = Area of the hose $\rightarrow A=\pi r^2$

The given radius is 0.83cm or $0.83 * 10^{-2}$ m, so the Area would be

$A = \pi (0.83*10^{-2})^2$

$A = 0.0002164m^2$

We have then that,

$\frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t} = \rho_w Av$

$\frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t} = (1000)(0.0002164)(5.4)$

$\frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t} = 1.16856kg/s$

Final the power of the pump would be,

$P = \frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t}(gh+\frac{1}{2}v^2)$

$P = (1.16856)((9.8)(3.5)+\frac{1}{2}5.4^2)$

$P = 57.1192W$

Therefore the power of the pump is 57.11W

5th Grade. Please help! SC standards

lesantik [10]

The answer would be D) The tropical convection region because the states below SC are all tropical and the current would go up to SC. I hope this helps.

Suppose that the angular separation of two stars is 0.1 arcseconds, and you photograph them with a telescope that has an angular

Crank

Answer: the photograph will likely show only one star.

Explanation:

Since their angular separation is smaller than the telescope's angular resolution, the picture will apparently show only one star rather than two.
