A man attaches a divider to an outdoor faucet so that water flows through a single pipe of radius 9.25 mm into four pipes, each

with a radius of 5.00 mm. If water flows through the single pipe at 1.45 m/s, calculate the speed (in m/s) of the water in the narrower pipes.

Answer:

1.24 m/s

Explanation:

Metric unit conversion:

9.25 mm = 0.00925 m

5 mm = 0.005 m

The volume rate that flow through the single pipe is

\dot{V} = vA = 1.45 * \pi * 0.00925^2 = 0.00039 m^3/s

This volume rate should be constant and divided into the 4 narrower pipes, each of them would have a volume rate of

\dot{V_n} = \dot{V} / 4 = 0.00039 / 4 = 9.74\times10^{-5} m^3/s

So the flow speed of each of the narrower pipe is:

v_n = \frac{\dot{V_n}}{A_n} = \frac{\dot{V_n}}{\pi r_n^2}

v_n = \frac{9.74\times10^{-5}}{\pi 0.005^2} = 1.24 m/s

Mashutka [201]
<span>The primary reason a light bulb emits light is due to the heating of the resistance in the filament of the light bulb. In fact, the power dissipated in a resistor is given by
</span>P=I^2 R
<span>where I is the current and R the resistance. The larger the resistance or the current in the resistor, the larger the power dissipated. Due to this dissipation of power, the temperature of the filament becomes very high, and the resistance becomes incandescent, emitting light.</span>
