Answer:

h = 6.39 m

Explanation:

radius = 6/2 =3in= 3/12 in/ft = 0.25 ft

apply continuity equation to evaluate the velocity

flow rate = area * velocity

        2.2 = π(0.25^2) * V  

⇒        V = 11.2 ft/s

*assuming there is no applied pressure difference along the pipe

applying Energy conservation law

initial potential energy = final kinetic energy

                              pgh = (1/2)*pv^2

where p  = density

            v = velocity  

plugging in the values:

p cancels out on both the sides

⇒ 9.81 * h = (11.2^2)/2

              h = 6.39 m

Components connected in series are connected along a single path, so the same current flows through all of the components. If the light bulbs are connected in parallel, the currents through the light bulbs combine to form the current in the battery, while the voltage drop is across each bulb and they all glow.

'The normal is a line perpendicular to the surface of the mirror'.This is the correct statement that corrects an error on the site.

<h3>What is the law of reflection?</h3>

The law of reflection specifies that upon reflection from a downy surface, the slope of the reflected ray is similar to the slope of the incident ray.

The reflected ray is consistently in the plane determined by the incident ray and perpendicular to the surface at the point of reference of the incident ray.

When the light rays descend on the smooth surface, the angle of reflection is similar to the angle of incidence, also the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal to the surface all lie in a similar plane.

Hence 'The normal is a line perpendicular to the surface of the mirror'.This is the correct statement that corrects an error on the site
