You go to the hardware store to buy a new 50 ft garden hose. You find you can choose between hoses of ½ inch and 5/8 inch inner

diameter. Compared the rate at which water flows through the two types of hoses (i.e. the ratio of rates).

To solve this problem it is necessary to consider two concepts. The first of these is the flow rate that can be defined as the volumetric quantity that a channel travels in a given time. The flow rate can also be calculated from the Area and speed, that is,

Q = V*A

Where,

A= Cross-sectional Area

V = Velocity

The second concept related to the calculation of this problem is continuity, which is defined as the proportion that exists between the input channel and the output channel. It is understood as well as the geometric section of entry and exit, defined as,

Q_1 = Q_2

V_1A_1=V_2A_2

Our values are given as,

A_1=\frac{1}{2}^2*\pi=0.785 in^2

A_2=\frac{5}{8}^2*\pi=1.227 in^2

Re-arrange the equation to find the first ratio of rates we have:

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{A_2}{A_1}

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{1.227}{0.785}

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=1.56

The second ratio of rates is

\frac{V2}{V1}=\frac{A_1}{A2}

\frac{V2}{V1}=\frac{0.785}{1.227}

\frac{V2}{V1}=0.640

azamat

Answer:

160N

Explanation:

Moments must be conserved - so.

20 * 0.4 = F * 0.05

F=\frac{20*0.4}{0.05} = 160

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

86.6, 45°

Explanation:

The diagram explains better.

Using vector component method:

We find the x and y components of the vectors :

For the first:

A = -50cos(0)i + 50sin(0)j

A = -50i

For the second:

B = -50cos(60)i + 50sin(60)j

B = -25i + 43.3j

The resultant vector is :

R = A + B

R = -50i - 25i + 43.3j

R = -75i + 43.3j

The magnitude is:

R = [(-75)² + (43.3)²]^½

R = 86.6m

The angle is

tanθ = (50/50) = 1

θ = 45°

Question 4 (1 point)
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

directly proportional.

Explanation:

Coulomb's has the formular :

F = kQ₁Q₂ / d²

from the formular F = force

also from the formular Q = charge

hence, from the equation above, force and charge are directly related.so if the charge doubles, the force exerted by it on another charge also doubles because they are directly proportional.
