A sharp edged orifice with a 60 mm diameter opening in the vertical side of a large tank discharges under a head of 6 m. If the

coefficient of contraction is 0.68 and the coefficient of velocity is 0.92, what is the discharge?

Answer:

The discharge rate is $Q = 0.0192 \ m^3 /s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The diameter is $d = 60 \ mm = 0.06 \ m$

The head is $h = 6 \ m$

The coefficient of contraction is $Cc = 0.68$

The coefficient of velocity is $Cv = 0.92$

The radius is mathematically evaluated as

$r = \frac{d}{2}$

substituting values

$r = \frac{ 0.06 }{2}$

$r = 0.03 \ m$

The area is mathematically represented as

$A = \pi r^2$

substituting values

$A = 3.142 * (0.03)^2$

$A = 0.00283 \ m^2$

The discharge rate is mathematically represented as

$Q = Cv *Cc * A * \sqrt{ 2 * g * h}$

substituting values

$Q = 0.68 * 0.92* 0.00283 * \sqrt{ 2 * 9.8 * 6}$

$Q = 0.0192 \ m^3 /s$

A watermelon is dropped from the top of a 80m tall building. We want to find the velocity of the watermelon after it falls for 1

White raven [17]

Answer:

$v_f = v_i + at$

$v_f = 13.23 m/s$

Explanation:

Height Of the watermelon when it is dropped is given as

$h = 80 m$

time of fall under gravity

$t = 1.35 s$

now if water melon start from rest then we have

$v_i = 0$

acceleration due to gravity for watermelon

$a = 9.81 m/s^2$

now we need to find the final speed of watermelon

$v_f = v_i + at$

so we will have

$v_f = 0 + (9.81)(1.35)$

$v_f = 13.23 m/s$

How does an environmental change (ex. hurricane, drought, etc.) affect the organisms that are adapted to the environment before

rjkz [21]

The environmental changes can will negatively affect different organisms differently, for example some organisms might die due to failure of the organisms to adapt to the new changes. Some organisms will be forced to migrate in order to counter these changes, this may lead to this organisms leaving their old living routine and adapt to the new methods of living, this may lead to evolution caused by new environment.

4. Assume a multiple level queue system with a variable time quantum per queue, and that the incoming job needs 50ms to run to c

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

For the completion of incoming job it will take 50ms

First queue takes 5ms quantum time and the subsequent queue takes double of the previous question

So,

First queue T_1 = 5ms

Second queue T_2 = 2 × T_1 = 2 × 5 = 10ms

Third queue T_3 = 2 × T_2 = 2 × 10 = 20ms

Fourth queue T_4 = 2 × T_3 = 2 × 20 = 40ms

Fifth queue T_5= 2 × T_4 = 2 × 40 = 80ms.

Now, the job will be done after the fifth queue.

So, after the first queue, the job is not completed, so, we have first interruption

After the second queue, the job is not completed, so, we have second interruption

After the third queue, the job is not completed, so we have third interruption.

After the fourth queue, the job is not yet completed, so we have the fourth interruption

And in the fifth queue the job is completed, so we don't have any interruption here.

So, the job will be interrupted 4 times and it will finished on the fifth queue.

If the time of impact in a collision is extended by 3 times, by hour much is

vodomira [7]

Answer:

The force of the impact would be smaller

Explanation: Examples:

If the force is big then the time would be small (2500N of Force = 10 seconds)

If the force is small then the time would be big (250N of Force = 50 seconds)

Impulse/Collision -> [Ft] = [M (vf-vo)] <- Change in momentum

Which of the following improves your range of motion and helps prevent

erma4kov [3.2K]

A. A healthy body composition will improve range of motion and prevent injuries. Staying in a healthy weight range (BMI) prevents overexerting joints. It also helps increase range of motion which in turn reduces injury.
