A vertical cylindrical tank 10 ft in diameter, has an inflow line of 0.3 ft inside diameter and an outflow line of 0.4 ft inside

diameter. Water is flowing in the inflow line at a velocity of 5 ft/s and in the outflow line at a velocity of 2 ft/s. Is the level in the tank rising or decreasing? With what speed (ft/sec)?

Answer:

\frac{dh}{dt} = 1.3 \times 10^{-3} \frac{ft}{s}, level is rising.

Explanation:

Since liquid water is a incompresible fluid, density can be eliminated of the equation of Mass Conservation, which is simplified as follows:

\dot V_{in} - \dot V_{out} = \frac{dV_{tank}}{dt}

\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{in}^2 \cdot v_{in}-\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{out}^2 \cdot v_{out}= \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{tank}^{2} \cdot \frac{dh}{dt} \\D_{in}^2 \cdot v_{in} - D_{out}^2 \cdot v_{out} = D_{tank}^{2} \cdot \frac{dh}{dt} \\\frac{dh}{dt}  = \frac{D_{in}^2 \cdot v_{in} - D_{out}^2 \cdot v_{out}}{D_{tank}^{2}}

By replacing all known variables:

\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{(0.3 ft)^{2}\cdot (5 \frac{ft}{s} ) - (0.4 ft)^{2} \cdot (2 \frac{ft}{s} )}{(10 ft)^{2}}\\\frac{dh}{dt} = 1.3 \times 10^{-3} \frac{ft}{s}

The positive sign of the rate of change of the tank level indicates a rising behaviour.

If the PLATE SEPARATION of an isolated charged parallel-plate capacitor is doubled: A. the electric field is doubled
mash [69]

Explanation:

The electric field of an isolated charged parallel-plate capacitor is given by :

E=\dfrac{q}{A\epsilon_o}........(1)

Where

q is the electric charge

A is the area of cross section of parallel plate

It is clear from equation (1) that the electric field of a parallel plate capacitor is directly proportional to the charge on the plate and inversely proportional to the area of cross section of a plate.

So, the correct option is (E) i.e. "none of the above".

Which environment is least likely to support protists
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

A: Soil

Explanation:

Protists need a moist environment to survive, and shallow ponds, oceans, and blood is all moist. So, the answer would be the soil, because that is the least moist environment out of these options.

Un cuerpo se mueve con MRU a una rapidez de 12 m/s y recorre 240 m; luego, disminuye su ra¬pidez uniformemente a razón de 2 m/s2
Annette [7]

Answer:

29 seconds

Explanation:

First we have a constant speed of 12 m/s and the distance of 240 m, so to find the time we can use the formula:

distance = speed * time

240 = 12 * time1

time1 = 20 seconds

Then, the speed decreases at 2 m/s2 until it reaches 2 m/s. So to find this time, we use this formula:

Final speed = inicial speed + acceleration * time

2 = 12 - 2 * time2

2*time2 = 10

time2 = 5 seconds.

Then, the speed increases from 2 m/s to 22 m/s with an acceleration of 5 m/s2, so we have:

Final speed = inicial speed + acceleration * time

22 = 2 + 5 * time3

5*time3= 20

time3 = 4 seconds

The total time is:

Total time = time1 + time2 + time3 = 20 + 5 + 4 = 29 seconds

Three equal 1.55-μC point charges are placed at the corners of an equilateral triangle whose sides are 0.500 m long. What is the
kati45 [8]

Answer:

0.12959085 J

Explanation:

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

q = Charge = 1.55 μC

d = Distance between charge = 0.5 m

Electric potential energy is given by

U=k\dfrac{q^2}{d}

In this system with three charges which are equidistant from each other

U=k\dfrac{q^2}{d}+k\dfrac{q^2}{d}+k\dfrac{q^2}{d}

\\\Rightarrow U=k\dfrac{3q^2}{d}\\\Rightarrow U=8.99\times 10^9\times \dfrac{3\times (1.55\times 10^{-6})^2}{0.5}\\\Rightarrow U=0.12959085\ J

The potential energy of the system is 0.12959085 J
