Answer
given,
discharge rate from pipe = 1000 gallons/minutes
now,
flow rate in cubic meters per second
1 gallon = 0.00378541 m³
1 min = 60 s
Q =
Q = 0.063 m³/s
flow rate in liters per minute
1 gallon = 3.78541 L
Q =
Q = 3785.41 m³/min
flow rate in cubic feet per second
1 gallon = 0.133681 ft³
1 min = 60 s
Q =
Q = 2.23 ft³/s
Answer:
Force that acted on the body was F = 13 N
Explanation:
If once accelerated, the body covers 60 meters in 6 seconds, then its velocity is 60/6 m/s = 10 m/s
When the force was acting (for 10 seconds) the object accelerated from rest (initial velocity vi = 0) to 10 m/s (its final velocity). therefore we can use the kinematic equation for the velocity in an accelerated motion given by:
which in our case becomes;
and we can solve for the acceleration as:
a = 10/10 m/s^2 = 1 m/s^2
Therefore the force acting on the body, based on Newton's 2nd Law expression: F = m * a is:
F = 13 kg * 1 m/s^2 = 13 N
