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

Oksi-84 [34.3K]
Force is the product of mass and acceleration .
The question is ask to find acceleration.
But acceleration is the ratio of the force and the mass.
where 600kg is the mass and 7kN is the force
NB: kilo is 1000
now we have to multiply 7N by 1000
by doing so you will have 7000N
which is the force.
Now to find the acceleration: force/ mass
which is 7000/600
therefore the maximum acceleration is 11.667

Why does a black hole have a stronger gravitational pull than the star that collapse to form it?​
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

We consider Black Holes as an object that possesses extreme gravitational pull, but wait aren’t they have the same mass(or less) as that of their parent star. And we know that gravitational pull ‘F’ is directly proportional to the mass of an object, so if the mass is same(or less) then why do black holes have stronger gravity than the stars they evolved from.

The above consideration that F is directly proportional to the mass is partially correct, one should also mention that F is also inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the considered objects.

F = G*(M*m)/(r^2)

Where:

· F is the force acting on you due to star

· M is the mass of Parent star / Black Hole

· m is the mass of an observer, here it is you

· r is the radial distance between the star and you

We know that black hole formed, has much smaller size than that of its parent star and all that mass is compressed to a much smaller scale. If you consider a Star as having a size of an earth then the black hole formed will have a size of small city.

Let us say that you are standing at an r distance away from a star (r>R1), where R1 is the radius of the star, of course (R1>R2), where R2 is the radius of Black Hole.

The Force by which the star in case 1 attracts you will be equal(or less) to the force by which black hole in case 2. So, there is nothing increase in gravitational pull, it is same(or less) as that of the parent star.

Wait a minute, then why people say that black holes have massive gravitational pull.

The gravitational pull increases as we move closer to the black hole, and when we are at its surface, it is enormous as compare to its star surface, because of the difference in the size.

We know that gravitational pull not only depends upon the mass but also depends upon the radial distance between the concerned objects here, it is you and the black hole.

Here, the size of the black hole is much smaller than that of its parent star, i.e (R1>>>R2), and thus we get F1<<<F2, and that is why we say that the black hole has enormous gravitational pull, such that nothing can escape, not even light.

What is the momentum of an object in splace
forsale [732]

Answer:

The total momentum of the universe is always the same and is equal to zero. The total momentum of an isolated system never changes. Momentum can be transferred from one body to another.

Momentum quantifies how likely an object is to stay in motion. Momentum can also be explained using the equation, p=mv, where p is equal to momentum, m is equal to mass, and v is equal to velocity.
