Answer:

the rate of flow = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s or 0.029 m³/s

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the pipe = 100mm = 0.1m

Contraction ratio = 0.5

thus, diameter at the throat of venturimeter = 0.5×0.1m = 0.05m

The formula for discharge through a venturimeter is given as:

Q=C_d\frac{A_1A_2}{\sqrt{A_1^2-A_2^2}}\sqrt{2gh}

Where,

C_d is the coefficient of discharge = 0.97 (given)

A₁ = Area of the pipe

A₁ = \frac{\pi}{4}0.1^2 = 7.85\times 10^{-3}m^2

A₂ = Area at the throat

A₂ = \frac{\pi}{4}0.05^2 = 1.96\times 10^{-3}m^2

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Now,

The gauge pressure at throat = Absolute pressure - The atmospheric pressure

⇒The gauge pressure at throat = 2 - 10.3 = -8.3 m (Atmosphric pressure = 10.3 m of water)

Thus, the pressure difference at the throat and the pipe = 3- (-8.3) = 11.3m

Substituting the values in the discharge formula we get

Q=0.97\frac{7.85\times 10^{-3}\times 1.96\times 10^{-3}}{\sqrt{7.85\times 10^{-3}^2-1.96\times 10^{-3}^2}}\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 11.3}

or

Q=\frac{0.97\times15.42\times 10^{-6}\times 14.88}{7.605\times 10^{-3}}

or

Q = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s

Hence, the rate of flow = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s or 0.029 m³/s

A 562 N trunk is on frictionless plane inclined at 30.0 degrees from the horizontal. What is the acceleration of the trunk down
Len [333]

Answer: 0m/s²

Explanation:

Since the forces acting along the plane are frictional force(Ff) and moving force(Fm), we will take the sum of the forces along the plane

According newton's law of motion

Summation of forces along the plane = mass × acceleration

Frictional force is always acting upwards the plane since the body will always tends to slide downwards on an inclined plane and the moving acts down the plane

Ff = nR where

n is coefficient of friction = tan(theta)

R is normal reaction = Wcos(theta)

Fm = Wsin(theta)

Substituting in the formula of newton's first law we have;

Fm-Ff = ma

Wsin(theta) - nR = ma

Wsin(theta) - n(Wcos(theta)) = ma... 1

Given

W = 562N, theta = 30°, n = tan30°, m = 56.2kg

Substituting in eqn 1,

562sin30° - tan30°(562cos30°) = 56.2a

281 - 281 = 56.2a

0 = 56.2a

a = 0m/s²

This shows that the trunk is not accelerating

How does amplitude determine loudness?
sdas [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Amplitude is a measure of the size of sound waves. It depends on the amount of energy that started the waves. Greater amplitude waves have more energy and greater intensity, so they sound louder.

On a frictionless surface how much force is necessary to accelerate a 0.49 kg object to the left at 4.8 m/s2?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

<h2>2.35 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

force = 0.49 × 4.8 = 2.352

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.35 N</h3>

A child on a swing sweeps out a distance of 45 ft on the first pass. If she is allowed to continue swinging until she​ stops, an
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

d = 90 ft

Explanation:

Here in each swing the distance sweeps by the swing is half of the initial distance that it will move

So here we can say that total distance in whole motion is  given as

d = 45 + \frac{45}{2} + \frac{45}{4} + \frac{45}{8}..........

since it is half of the distance that it will move in each swing so it would be a geometric progression with common ratio of 1/2

so sum of such GP is given by the formula

S = \frac{a}{1 - r}

d = \frac{45}{1 - \frac{1}{2}}

d = 90 ft
