Answer:

8.19m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Pressure, P= 11.6 psi = 79979.185 Pa

Gauge pressure is given as:

P = h*d*g

=> h = P/(d*g)

Where

h = height of tank

d = density

g = acceleration due to gravity

Density of water = 997 kg/m³

Therefore, the height of the tank is:

h = 79979.185/(997 * 9.8)

h = 8.19m

The junction rule describes the conservation of which quantity? Note that this rule applies only to circuits that are in a stead
denis-greek [22]

Explanation:

The junction rule says that the sum of the currents going into a junction must equal the sum of the currents leaving a junction.  This describes the conservation of current.

If the current through a 20-Ω resistor is 8.0 A , how much energy is dissipated by the resistor in 1.0 h ? Express your answer w
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

P(3600)=593.247W

Explanation:

First, let's find the voltage through the resistor using ohm's law:

V=IR=20*8=160V

AC power as function of time can be calculated as:

P(t)= V*I*cos(\phi)-V*I*cos(2 \omega t-\phi)  (1)

Where:

\phi=Phase\hspace{3}angle\\\omega= Angular\hspace{3}frequency

Because of the problem doesn't give us additional information, let's assume:

\phi=0\\\omega=2 \pi f=2*\pi *(60)=120\pi

Evaluating the equation (1) in t=3600 (Because 1h equal to 3600s):

P(3600)=160*8*cos(0)-160*8*cos(2*120\pi*3600-0)\\P(3600)=1280-1280*cos(2714336.053)\\P(3600)=1280-1280*0.5365255751\\P(3600)=1280-686.7527361=593.2472639\approx=593.247W

A motorbike is travelling with a velocity of 3m/s. It accelerates at a rate of 9.3m/s for 1.8s. Calculate the distance it travel
Misha Larkins [42]

Explanation:

Consider the kinematic equation,

x  = vt +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

where x is the distance traveled, v is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is time. By plugging in known values and solving for x,

x = 3(1.8) +  \frac{1}{2} (9.3) {1.8}^{2}

through simple algebra we get

x = 20.466

where this is the distance traveled in meters.

suppose a ball had a potential energy of 5 j when you dropped it. What would be its kinetic energy just as it hit the ground. (i
Andru [333]
Since we are ignoring air resistance which is a non-conservative force, the potential energy will be completely converted into kinetic energy, resulting in a final kinetic energy of 5J.
