Answer:

F = 20 N south  

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force applied on the racing car in south direction is 30 N and parachute deploys resulting in a 10 N force due North.

We need to find the net force on the car.

Let North denotes +y axis and South denotes -y axis.

So, F₁ = +10 N

F₂ = -30 N

Net force is :

F=F_1+F_2\\\\F=10+(-30)\\\\F=-20\ N

It means that the net force is 20 N and it is acting in south. Hence (d) is correct.

A centrifugal pump is operating at a flow rate of 1 m3/s and a head of 20 m. If the specific weight of water is 9800 N/m3 and th
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

<em>The power required by the pump is nearly 230.588 kW</em>

Explanation:

Flow rate of the pump Q = 1 m^3/s

the head flow H = 20 m

specific weight of water γ = 9800 N/m^3

efficiency of the pump η = 85%

First note that specific gravity of water is the product of the density of water and acceleration due to gravity.

γ = ρg

where ρ is density. For water its value is 1000 kg/m^3

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

The power to lift this water at this rate will be gotten from the equation

P = ρgQH

but ρg = γ

therefore,

P = γQH

imputing values, we'll have

P = 9800 x 1 x 20 = 196000 W

But the centrifugal pump that will be used will only be able to lift this amount of water after the efficiency factor has been considered. The power of pump needed must be greater than this power.

we can say that

196000 W is 85% of the power of the pump power needed, therefore

196000 = 85% of P_{p}

where P_{p} is the power of the pump needed

85% = 0.85

196000 = 0.85P_{p}

P_{p} = 196000/0.85 = 230588.24 W

<em>Pump power = 230.588 kW</em>

That's because helium molecules are not packed together as densely as air molecules are. It is this simple reason that helium ba
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Because the molecules are not packed together as much than the air, in a fixed volume of helium there are fewer particles than in the same fixed volume of air.

This means that the mass of the fixed volume of helium is smaller than the one of air, and then the density, defined as mass/volume, is also smaller.

This is why the balloon floats, because the air is denser, it tries to go down, pushing the ballon upside.

The case is similar for a piece of metal in water, as the metal is way denser than the water, the metal will sink, but for something not as dense, like a balloon with air, the balloon will remain in the surface of the water.
