Answer:

v = 1.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance, d = 72 m

Time taken, t = 45 s

We need to find their average velocity. Average velocity of an object is given by total distance divided by total time taken.

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{72\ m}{45\ s}\\\\v=1.6\ m/s$

So, their average velocity is 1.6 m/s.

discharge occurs when oppositely charged objects get close enough for the air between them to become electrically charged.

Answer:

It does both. Once they get close enough the air does start to get charged, but then they eventually discharge when they touch.

A 2 m tall, 0.5 m inside diameter tank is filled with water. A 10 cm hole is opened 0.75 m from the bottom of the tank. What is

valina [46]

Answer:

4.75 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the velocity of the existing water is shown below:

Data provided in the question

Tall = 2 m

Inside diameter tank = 2m

Hole opened = 10 cm

Bottom of the tank = 0.75 m

Based on the above information, first we have to determine the height which is

= 2 - 0.75 - 0.10

= 2 - 0.85

= 1.15 m

We assume the following things

1. Compressible flow

2. Stream line followed

Now applied the Bernoulli equation to section 1 and 2

So we get

$\frac{P_1}{p_g} + \frac{v_1^2}{2g} + z_1 = \frac{P_2}{p_g} + \frac{v_2^2}{2g} + z_2$

where,

P_1 = P_2 = hydrostatic

z_1 = 0

z_2 = h

Now

$\frac{v_1^2}{2g} + 0 = \frac{v_2^2}{2g} + h\\\\V_2 < < V_1 or V_2 = 0\\\\Therefore\ \frac{v_1^2}{2g} = h\\\\v_1^2 = 2gh\\\\ v_1 = \sqrt{2gh} \\\\v_1 = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.15}$

= 4.7476 m/sec

= 4.75 m/s
