Answer:

C. Air pressure is lower between the buildings.

Explanation:

As per Bernoulli's equation we know that

P + \frac{1}{2}\rho v^2 + \rho g h = constant

so here as we know for same level the value of potential energy per unit volume will be same so here as we change the value of pressure then to compensate the effect of pressure value of the speed of air will increase between two buildings

P + \frac{1}{2}\rho v^2 = constant

so here we can say correct answer will be

C. Air pressure is lower between the buildings.

The pressure at the pump outlet is 2372 psi. If the pump has a mechanical efficiency of 0.93, what input horsepower is required
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

HP = 27.08 hp

Explanation:

The complete question has a theoretical flow rate of 18.2 GPM. So, to find the input horsepower, we will use the following formula:

HP = QP/1714(E)

where,

HP = Input Horse Power = ?

Q = Volume Flow Rate in Gallons Per Minute (GPM) = 18.2 GPM

P = Outlet Pressure in psi = 2372 psi

E = Mechanical Efficiency = 0.93

Therefore,

HP = (18.2 GPM)(2372 psi)/(1714)(0.93)

<u>HP = 27.08 hp</u>

What is the source of geothermal energy? User: What is the source of geothermal energy?
bazaltina [42]

The answer is; C

In particular points in the earth’s surface, underground water is naturally heated to steam that can be harness for geothermal energy. The steam that ejects from the ground with high kinetic energy can be used to turn turbines that generate electricity. The underground water is usually heated by the hot rocks beneath that are subjected to the immense heat of magma or the enormous pressure of overlying crust.

The knee extensors insert on the tibia at an angle of 30 degrees (from the longitudinal axis of the tibia), at a distance of 3 c
Reika [66]

Answer:

the knee extensors must exert 15.87 N

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

mass m = 4.5 kg

radius of gyration k = 23 cm = 0.23 m

angle ∅ = 30°

∝ = 1 rad/s²

distance of 3 cm from the axis of rotation at the knee r = 3 cm = 0.03 m

using the expression;

ζ = I∝

ζ = mk²∝

we substitute

ζ = 4.5 × (0.23)² × 1

ζ  = 0.23805 N-m

so

from; ζ = rFsin∅

F = ζ / rsin∅

we substitute

F = 0.23805 / (0.03 × sin( 30 ° )

F = 0.23805 / (0.03 × 0.5)

F F = 0.23805 / 0.015

F = 15.87 N

Therefore, the knee extensors must exert 15.87 N

A particle beam is made up of many protons, each with a kinetic energy of 3.25times 10-15 J. A proton has a mass of 1.673 times
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of a uniform electric field that will stop these protons in a distance of 2 m is 1.01 x 10^{-4} N/C

Explanation:

given information,

kinetic energy, KE = 3.25 x 10^{-15} J

proton's mass, m = 1.673 x 10^{-27} kg

charge, q = 1.602 x 10^{-19} C

distance, d = 2 m

to find the electric field that will stop the proton, we can use the following equation:

E = F/q

   = (KE/d) / q ,        KE = Fd --> F = KE/d

   = KE/qd

    = (3.25 x 10^{-15} J) / (1.602 x 10^{-19} C)(2 m)

    = 1.01 x 10^{-4} N/C
