Two children, Ferdinand and Isabella, are playing with a waterhose on a sunny summer day. Isabella is holding the hose in herhan

d 1.0 meters above the ground and is trying to spray Ferdinand,who is standing 10.0 meters away. To increase the range of the water, Isabella places her thumb on the hose hole and partially covers it. Assuming that the flow remains steady, what fraction f of the cross-sectional area of the hose hole does she have to cover to be able to spray her friend? Assume that the cross section of the hose opening is circular with a radius of 1.5 centimeters. Express your answer as a percentage to the nearest integer.

Answer:

84%

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

y_0=1\ m

x = 10 m

t = Time taken

v_0 = 3.5 m/s (assumed, as it is not given)

A_0=\pi 1.5^2

We have the equation

y=y_0+ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\Rightarrow 0=y_0-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2y_0}{g}}\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.45152\ s

x=x_0+vt\\\Rightarrow 10=0+v0.45152\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{10}{0.45152}\\\Rightarrow v=22.14741\ m/s

From continuity equation we have

Av=A_0v_0\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{A_0v_0}{v}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{\pi 1.5^2\times 3.5}{22.14741}\\\Rightarrow A=1.11706\ cm^2

Fraction is given by

f=\dfrac{A_0-A}{A_0}\times 100\\\Rightarrow f=\dfrac{\pi 1.5^2-1.11706}{\pi 1.5^2}\times 100\\\Rightarrow f=84.196\ \%\approx 84\ \%

The fraction is 84%

Pavel [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The way to show a cubed substance is either like this³ or like this x^3. The small three is found at the bottom toolbar at the bottom of the question space marked by the  Ω symbol.

100 mmHg

Givens

V1 = 20 cm^3

V2 = 80 cm^3

P1 = 400 mmHg

P2 = ?

Formula

V1 * P1 = V2 * P2

Solution

20 * 400 = 80 * P2              Divide by 80

20 * 400/80 = P2

P2 = 8000 / 80

P2 = 100 mmHg

frutty [35]

Brass requires more energy than silver

Aluminum requires more energy than copper

Aluminum requires more energy than brass

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of a substance indicates the amount of heat energy required to raise 1 kg of that substance by 1 degree in temperature.

Mathematically:

C=\frac{Q}{m\Delta T}

where

Q is the heat supplied to the substance

m is the mass of the substance

\Delta T is the change in temperature

Therefore, the higher the specific heat capacity of a substance, the more energy is needed to increase its temperature.

Here we can compare the specific heat capacity of the materials mentioned:

Silver: C=0.233 J/gK

Brass: C=0.380 J/gK

Platinum: C=0.130 J/gK

Aluminium: C=0.910 J/gK

Copper: C=0.390 J/gK

Therefore, the correct statements are:

Brass requires more energy than silver

Aluminum requires more energy than copper

Aluminum requires more energy than brass
