Hydraulic engineers often use, as a unit of volume of water, the "acre-foot", defined as the volume of water that will cover 1 a

cre of land to a depth of 1 ft. A severe thunderstorm dumps 1.7 in. of rain in 30 min on a town of area 29 km2. What volume of water, in acre-feet, fell on the town?

Answer:

Volume = 1,015 acre-feet (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Rain = 1.7 in

Time = 30 min

Area = 29 km²

Find:

Volume in acre-feet

Computation:

1 km = 1,000 m

1 m = 3.28 feet

1 km² = 247.105 acre

d = 1.7 in = 1.7 / 12 = 0.14167 ft

Area = 29 × 247.105 = 7,166.045 acre

Volume = 7,166.045 acre × 0.14167 ft

Volume = 1,015 acre-feet (Approx)

A force of 20. Newtons to the left exerted on a cart for 10. Seconds. For what period of time must a 50.-newton force to the rig
FinnZ [79.3K]
Impulse = (force) x (time)

The first impulse was (20 N) x (10 sec) = 200 meters/sec

The second one is (50 N) x (time) and we want it equal to the first one, so

(50 N) x (time) = 200 meters/sec

Divide each side by 50N :    Time = 200/50 = <em>4 seconds</em>

By the way, the quantity we're playing with here is the cart's <em>momentum</em>.

what is the name of the area around a charged object where the object can exert a force on other charged objects?
shusha [124]

Answer:

An electric field is a region around a charged object where the object's electric force is exerted on other charged objects. Electric fields get weaker the farther away they are from the charge. An electric field is invisible. You can use the field line to represent it.

timurjin [86]

Answer:

f_{o} = 391.67 Hz

Explanation:

The sound of lowest frequency which is produced by a vibrating sting is called its fundamental frequency (f_{o}).

The For a vibrating string, the fundamental frequency (f_{o}) can be determined by:

f_{o} = \frac{v}{2L}

Where v is the speed of waves of the string, and L is the length of the string.

L = 42.0 cm = 0.42 m

v = 329 m/s

f_{o} = \frac{329}{2*0.42}

   = \frac{329}{0.84}

f_{o} = 391.6667 Hz

The fundamental frequency of the string is 391.67 Hz.
