A horizontal water jet at 70˚F issues from a circular orifice in a large tank. The jet strikes a vertical plate that is normal t

o the axis of the jet. A force of 500 lbf is needed to hold the plate in place against the action of the jet. If the pressure in the tank is 90 psig at point A, what is the diameter D of the jet just downstream of the orifice?

In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to Bernoulli's equation and the propulsive force.

Bernoulli's equation is defined by,

\frac{P_A}{\rho g}+\frac{V_A^2}{2g} +z_a = \frac{P_B}{\rho g}+\frac{V_B^2}{2g} +z_B

Where

P = Pressure

v = velocity

z= Heigth

\rho =Density

g = Gravitational Force

We must look for the speed at the exit. Our values are given by,

V_A = 0

P_A = 90Psi=620528Pa

T = 70\°F = 21.11\°C

\rho = 998kg/m^3

Since water is exposed to atmosphere outlet at the end, then P_B = 0

Replacing we have

\frac{P_A}{\rho g}+\frac{V_A^2}{2g} +z_a = \frac{P_B}{\rho g}+\frac{V_B^2}{2g} +z_B

\frac{620528}{998(9.8)}+\frac{0^2}{2(9.8)} +0 = \frac{0}{998(9.81)}+\frac{V_B^2}{2(9.81)} +0

63.4460 = \frac{V_B^2}{2(9.81)}

V_B = \sqrt{2(63.4460)(9.81)}

V_B = 35.28m/s

According to the statement, the required force is given by 500Lbf that is 2224.11N

Based on the propulsive force we have to

F_x = \rho A(V_C+V_B)

Replacing our values,

2224.11 = (998)(\frac{\pi}{4}d^2)(0-35.28^2)

d^2=\frac{4(2224.11)(0-35.28^2)}{(998)\pi}

d^2 = 3531.77

d = 59.42m

Which word describes a goal that is poorly written?
stiv31 [10]

Abstract. Abstract is defined as an idea or plan but no actions are done

to pursue the idea. When setting goals, one must be certain and it should be attainable in order

to achieve the goal being set. Goals that are abstract

are often poorly written and uncertain

A 35 N force makes a 10 degree angle with the positive x-axis. What is the magnitude of the vertical component of the force?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

6.07 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F = 35 N

It makes 10 degree angle with the positive x-axis.

We need to find the magnitude of the vertical component of the force. It can be given by :

F_y=F\sin\theta\\\\=35\times \sin(10)\\\\=6.07\ N

So, the magnitude of the vertical component of the force is 6.07 N.

The height of a projectile t seconds after it is launched straight up in the air is given by f (t )equals negative 16 t squared
velikii [3]

Answer:

\displaystyle a(5)=-32

Explanation:

<u>Instant Acceleration</u>

The kinetic magnitudes are usually related as scalar or vector equations. By doing so, we are assuming the acceleration is constant over time. But when the acceleration is variable, the relations are in the form of calculus equations, specifically using derivatives and/or integrals.

Let f(t) be the distance traveled by an object as a function of the time t. The instant speed v(t) is defined as:

\displaystyle v(t)=\frac{df}{dt}

And the acceleration is

\displaystyle a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}

Or equivalently

\displaystyle a(t)=\frac{d^2f}{d^2t}

The given height of a projectile is

f(t)=-16t^2 +238t+3

Let's compute the speed

\displaystyle v(t)=-32t+238

And the acceleration

\displaystyle a(t)=-32

It's a constant value regardless of the time t, thus

\boxed{\displaystyle a(5)=-32}

Bare free charges do not remain stationary when close together. To illustrate this, calculate the acceleration of two isolated p
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Acceleration, a=9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Separation between the protons, r=3.73\ nm=3.73\times 10^{-9}\ m

Charge on protons, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Mass of protons, m=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg

We need to find the acceleration of two isolated protons. It can be calculated by equating electric force between protons and force due to motion as :

ma=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}

a=\dfrac{kq^2}{mr^2}      

a=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times (3.73\times 10^{-9})^2}      

a=9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of two isolated protons is 9.91\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.
