Location A receives more rainfall than Location B due to the rain shadow effect.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Rain shadow effect is caused due to the presence of mountains.
A rain shadow area is an area of land that has been forced to become dry, devoid of any vegetation growth due to the blockage of precipitation by mountains. These rain shadow areas will have a dry climate.
The other side of the mountain would receive plenty of precipitation and therefore would be flourished with plant growth. These areas will have a cool and wet climate.
In this case, Location A is on the other side of the mountain and so receives more rainfall or precipitation. Meanwhile, Location B is on the rain shadow region and so receives less rainfall.

A 7.5-cmcm-diameter horizontal pipe gradually narrows to 4.5 cmcm . When water flows through this pipe at a certain rate, the ga

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer

given,

diameter,d₁ = 7.5 cm

d₂ = 4.5 cm

P₁ = 32 kPa

P₂ = 25 kPa

Assuming, we have calculation of flow in the pipe

using continuity equation

A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

π r₁² v₁ = π r₂² v₂

$v_1= \dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2} v_2$

$v_1= \dfrac{2.25^2}{3.75^2} v_2$

$v_1= 0.36 v_2$

Applying Bernoulli's equation

$\Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)$

$P_1-P_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-(0.36 v_2)^2)$

$32-25 = \dfrac{1}{2}1000\times v_2^2 (1 - 0.1269)$

$v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 7\times 10^3}{1000\times (0.8704)}}$

$v_2=\sqrt{16.084}$

v₂ = 4.01 m/s

fluid flow rate

Q = A₂ V₂

Q = π (0.0225)² x 4.01

Q = 6.38 x 10⁻³ m³/s

flow in the pipe is equal to 6.38 x 10⁻³ m³/s

A pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star. The Crab nebula pulsar in the constellation Taurus has a period of 33.5\times 10^{-

joja [24]

Answer:

$5.25\cdot 10^{40} kg m^2/s$

Explanation:

The angular momentum of the pulsar is given by:

$L=m\omega r^2$

where

$m=2.8\cdot 10^{30} kg$ is the mass of the pulsar

$r = 10.0 km = 1\cdot 10^4 m$ is the radius

$\omega$ is the angular speed

Given the period of the pulsar, $T=33.5\cdot 10^{-3} s$ , the angular speed is given by

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2 \pi}{33.5\cdot 10^{-3}s}=187.5 rad/s$

And so, the angular momentum is

$L=m\omega r^2=(2.8\cdot 10^{30}kg)(187.5 rad/s)(1\cdot 10^4 m)^2=5.25\cdot 10^{40} kg m^2/s$
