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

Answer:

D, the lithosphere. (CRUST AND UPPER MANTLE)

Explanation:

A tectonic plate (also called lithospheric plate) is a massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere. Plate size can vary greatly, from a few hundred to thousands of kilometers across; the Pacific and Antarctic Plates are among the largest. Plate thickness also varies greatly, ranging from less than 15 km for young oceanic lithosphere to about 200 km or more for ancient continental lithosphere (for example, the interior parts of North and South America).

Finger [1]

Explanation:

36-4/4= 9 m/squared. meter per squared.

acceleration unit is meter per second Square.equation is velocity by time.for average final(36) minus initial(4)

Answer:

The velocity will be "76.8 m/s".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Acceleration,

a = 2.4 m/s²

Time,

t = 32 seconds

By equation of motion,

⇒  v=u+at

On substituting the values, we get

⇒     =0+2.4\times 32

⇒     =0+76.8

⇒     =76.8 \ m/s
