A round pipe of varying diameter carries petroleum from a wellhead to a refinery. At the wellhead, the pipe's diameter is 50.9 c
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Flow rate 2.34 m3/s

Diameter 0.754 m

Explanation:

Assuming steady flow, the volume flow rate along the pipe will always be constant, and equals to the product of flow speed and cross-section area.

The area at the well head is

A = \pi r_w^2 = \pi (0.509/2)^2 = 0.203 m^2

So the volume flow rate along the pipe is

\dot{V} = Av = 0.203 * 11.5 = 2.34 m^3/s

We can use the similar logic to find the cross-section area at the refinery

A_r = \dot{V}/v_r = 2.34 / 5.25 = 0.446 m^2

The radius of the pipe at the refinery is:

A_r = \pi r^2

r^2 =A_r/\pi = 0.446/\pi = 0.141

r = \sqrt{0.141} = 0.377m

So the diameter is twice the radius = 0.38*2 = 0.754m

What was the runoff from precipitation on the property for areas with vegetation and roofed or paved areas over the past four mo
puteri [66]

Answer:

Higher percentage of runoff water is absorbed by the vegetation whereas 100 % of water runoff on the roofed area.

Explanation:

Higher percentage of runoff water is absorbed by the vegetation and very little amount of runoff water is received on the end of vegetative cover while on the other hand, 100 percent of precipitation water runoff on the surface of roofed or paved area because no water is absorbed by the roof due to its solid surface. The percentage of runoff depends on the factors such as rainfall intensity, slope, soil water storage capacity, and infiltration rate.

What happens to light when it strikes the inside surface of a smooth, curved mirror? It bounces in random directions. It bounces
kotykmax [81]
This is a concave mirror you're talking about, so all of the points are going to converge to a single focal point. Therefore the answer would be that it bounces back toward a single spot
