Answer:
increases by a factor of 6.
Explanation:
Let us assume that the initial cross sectional area of the pipe is A m² while the initial velocity of the water is V m/s², hence the flow rate of the water is:
Initial flow rate = area * velocity = A * V = AV m³/s
The water speed doubles (2V m/s) and the cross-sectional area of the pipe triples (3A m²), hence the volume flow rate becomes:
Final flow rate = 2V * 3A = 6AV m³/s = 6 * initial flow rate
Hence, the volume flow rate of the water passing through it increases by a factor of 6.
Answer:
Option E
Explanation:
All the given statements are true except the velocity gradients normal to the flow direction are small since these are not normally small. It's true that viscous effects are present only inside the boundary layer and the fluid velocity equals the free stream velocity at the edge of the boundary layer. Moreover, Reynolds number is greater than unity and the fluid velocity is zero at the surface of the object.
Answer:
The amount of energy transferred to the water is 4.214 J
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
The mass of the object that drops = 5 kg
The height from which it drops = 86 mm (0.086 m)
The potential energy P.E. is given by the following formula
P.E = m·g·h
Where;
m = The mass of the object = 5 kg
g = The acceleration de to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
h = The height from which the object is dropped = 0.086 m
Therefore;
P.E. = 5 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 0.086 m = 4.214 J
Given that the potential energy is converted into heat energy, that raises the 1 g of water by 1°C, we have;
The amount of energy transferred to the water = The potential energy, P.E. = 4.214 J.
