A pressure difference of 6.00 x 104 Pa is required to maintain a volume flow rate of 0.400 m3 /s for a viscous fluid flowing thr

ough a section of cylindrical pipe that has a radius 0.330 m. What pressure difference is required to maintain the same volume flow rate if the radius of the pipe is decreased to 0.110 m?

Answer:

(P₁ - P₂)f = 4.86*10⁶ Pa

Explanation:

To determine how variables affect the flow rate of an incompressible fluid undergoing laminate flow in a cylindrical tube, we use Poiseuille's equation.

Q = Πr⁴ / 8η * [(p₁ - p₂) / L]

Q = 0.40 m³/s

P₁ - P₂ = 6*10⁴ pa

r₁ = 0.33m

r₂ = 0.11m

According to Poiseuille's law, the pressure difference is inversely proportional to the radius of the pipe raised to power of 4.

P₁ - P₂ = 1 / r⁴

(P₁ - P₂)i / (P₁ - P₂)f = R⁴f / Ri⁴

Saving for (P₁ - P₂)f

(P₁ - P₂)f = (Rf⁴ / Ri⁴) * (P₁ - P₂)i

(P₁ - P₂)f = [(0.33)⁴ / (0.11)⁴] = 6*10⁴

(P₁ - P₂)f = 4.86*10⁶pa.

An air gun fires 2 gram pellets at 60 m/s at a 45 gram golfball initially at rest. The pellets rebound at a speed 40 m/s and are

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

0.16 kgm/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of pellet = 2 g

$m_2$ = Mass of golf ball = 45 g

$u_1$ = Initial Velocity of pellet = 60 m/s

$u_2$ = Initial Velocity of golf ball = 0 m/s

$v_1$ = Final Velocity of pellet = 40 m/s

$v_2$ = Final Velocity of golf ball

In this system the linear momentum is conserved

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=0.002\times 60+0-0.002\times 40\\\Rightarrow m_2v_2=0.04$

As the golf ball is being shot 4 times every second the momentum delivered to the golf ball each second is $4\times 0.04=0.16\ kgm/s$

A satellite is in a circular orbit around the Earth at an altitude of 3.18x10 m. Find the period and th orbital speed of the sat

Leona [35]

Answer:

112.17 m/s

56.427 years

Explanation:

h = 3.18 x 10^10 m

R = 6.4 x 10^6 m

r = R + h = 3.18064 x 10^10 m

M = 6 x 10^24 kg

The formula for the orbital velocity is given by

$v = \sqrt{\frac{G M }{r}}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 6\times 10^{24} }{3.18064\times 10^{10}}}$

v = 112.17 m/s

Orbital period, T = 2 x 3.14 x 3.18064 x 10^10 / 112.17

T = 0.178 x 10^10 s

T = 56.427 years

A piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.08 m3 of nitrogen gas at 150 kPa and 200°C. The nitrogen is now expanded to a pres

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

$V_2 = 0.125 m^3$

Work done = = 5 kJ

Explanation:

Given data:

volume of nitrogen $v_1 = 0.08 m^3$

$P_1 = 150 kPa$

$T_1 = 200 degree celcius = 473 Kelvin$

$P_2 = 80 kPa$

Polytropic exponent n = 1.4

$\frac{T_2}{T_1} = [\frac{P_2}{P_1}]^{\frac{n-1}{n}$

putting all value

$\frac{T_2}{473} = [\frac{80}{150}]^{\frac{1.4-1}{1.4}$

$\frac{T_2} = 395.23 K = 122.08 DEGREE \ CELCIUS$

polytropic process is given as

$P_1 V_1^n = P_2 V_2^n$

$150\times 0.08^{1.4} = 80 \times V_2^{1.4}$

$V_2 = 0.125 m^3$

work done $= \frac{P_1 V_1 -P_2 V_2}{n-1}$

$= \frac{150 \times 0.8 - 80 \times 0.125}{1.4-1}$

= 5 kJ

What is Vatiable Velocity?

Allushta [10]

Answer:

Explanation: When a body covers unequal distances in equal intervals of time in a specified direction, the body is said to be moving with a variable velocity. Example: A rotating fan at a constant speed has variable velocity, because of continuous change in direction.
