When the block settles and stops bobbing up and down, the buoyant force and gravitational force on it must be EQUAL.  If they were not equal, then there would be a NET vertical force on the block, and it would be accelerating vertically, either up or down.  It's not, so there isn't.

A round pipe of varying diameter carries petroleum from a wellhead to a refinery. At the wellhead, the pipe's diameter is 57.3 c
Mashcka [7]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter of pipe,d_1=0.573 m

v_1=13.5 m/s

v_2=5.83 m/s

Volume flow rate of the petroleum along the pipe=Q_{refinery}=A_1v_1=v_(\frac{\pi d^2_1}{4})

Q_{refinery}=13.5\times (\pi\times \frac{0.573)^2}{4})=3.48 m^3/s

By equation of continuity

A_1v_1=A_2v_2

\frac{\pi d^2_1}{4}v_1=\frac{\pi d^2_2}{4}v_2

d^2_2=\frac{v_1}{v_2}d^2_1

d_2=\sqrt{\frac{v_1}{v_2}}d_1

d_2=0.573\sqrt{\frac{13.5}{5.83}}

d_2=0.87 m

d_2=0.87\time 100=87 cm

1 m=100 cm

Find the radius Rrigel of the star Rigel, the bright blue star in the constellation Orion that radiates energy at a rate of 2.7×
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

r = 1.61 x 10^{11} m

Explanation:

energy radiated (H) = 2.7 x 10^31 W

surface temperature (T)  = 11,000 k

assuming ε = 1 and taking σ = 5.67 x 10^{-8} W/m^{2}.K^{4}

we can find the radius of the star from the equation below

H = A x  ε x σ x T^{4}              

where area (A) = 4 x π x r^{2} (assuming it is a sphere)

therefore  the equation becomes

H = 4 x π x r^{2} x  ε x σ x T^{4}  

2.7 x 10^31  = 4 x π x r^{2} x  1 x 5.67 x 10^{-8}  x (11,000)^{4}

r = \sqrt{\frac{2.7 x 10^31}{4 x π x 1 x 5.67 x 10^{-8}  x (11,000)^{4}} }

r = 1.61 x 10^{11} m
