Answer:

Option A is correct.

Eddies due to enhanced mixing of ﬂuid

Explanation:

Turbulent thermal conductivity is thermal conductivity that arises from the turbulent flow of fluids. It comes into play when a particukar fluid moves into turbulent regiom of flow where flow is no longer orderly and streamlines aren't discernable with the fluid layers all warping into one another forming vortices.

It is represented as K and is shown mathematically through the heat flux at turbulent flow

q = vCρT' = - K (∂T/∂y)

where

K = turbulent thermal conductivity

T' = the eddy temperature relative to the mean value,

C = Heat capacity the fluid

q = the rate of thermal energy transport by turbulent eddies.

The physical mechanism that cause turbulent thermal conductivity are similar to the causes of turbulent flow of fluids.

This includes sharp changes in fluid pressure and velocity of flow which is evident in eddies that come about in the enhanced mixing of fluids.

In a 49 s interval, 595 hailstones strike a glass window of an area of 0.954 m at an angle of 25° to the window surface. Each ha

Average force on the window: 0.32 N

Explanation:

The average force exerted on the window is given by Newton's second law

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta p$ is the net change in momentum of the hailstones in a time interval of $\Delta t$

In order to find the change in momentum, we have to consider only the component of the hailstone's momentum perpendicular to the window, therefore:

$p_i =m u sin \theta$ is the initial momentum of one hailstone, with

m = 7 g = 0.007 kg is the mass

$u=4.5 m/s$ is the initial speed

$\theta=25^{\circ}$ is the angle with the window

The final momentum is

$p_f = mv sin \theta$

where

v = 4.5 m/s is the final speed (the collision is elastic so the speed is equal, while the direction changes)

$\theta=-25^{\circ}$ (after the rebound, the direction has changed)

So the change in momentum of 1 hailstone is

$\Delta p = mv sin(-25^{\circ})-mu sin(25^{\circ})=-2mu sin(25^{\circ})=-0.0266 kg m/s$

We are interested only in the magnitude, so

$\Delta p = 0.0266 kg m/s$

There are 595 hailstones hitting the window in 49 s, so the total change in momentum is

$\Delta p = 595\cdot 0.0266 = 15.8 kg m/s$

And therefore, the average force on the window is

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=\frac{15.8}{49}=0.32 N$

A sailboat moves north for a distance of 10.00 km when blown by a wind from the exact south with a force of 5.00 x 10^4 n. how m

Nataliya [291]

Work is defined as the force times the distance which is mathematically expressed W = Fxd. The given force is 5x10^4 and the distance is 10000 m (the distance is converted as meter because Nm = J) the work done by the wind is W = 5x10^4 N (10000) = 500 x 10^6 Joules. I hope it answered your question

In general, how did the water pressure in the tank change when mass was added to the fluid?

MissTica

Answer:

As the height increases the pressure must increase.

Explanation:

When we add masses to the fluid, the amount of fluid in the tank increases, therefore its height increases and the pressure is described by the expression

P = ρ g h

where rho is constant for a given fluid and h is the height measured from the surface of the fluid.

As the height increases the pressure must increase.

MAXImum [283]

Base on your question where a 14.8g of piece of Styrofoam carries a net charge of -0.742C and is suspended in equilibrium above the center of a large, horizontal sheet of plastic so the ask of the problem is to calculate the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet. The answer would be 21.96

An automobile of mass 1.46 cross times to the power of blank 10 cubed kg rounds a curve of radius 25.0 m with a velocity of 15.0

Vsevolod [243]

The centripetal force exerted on the automobile while rounding the curve is $1.31\times10^4 N$

<u>Explanation:</u>

given that

$Mass\ of\ the\ automobile\ m =1.46\times 10^3 kg\\radius\ of\ the\ curve\ r =25 m\\velocity\ of\ the\ automobile\ v=15m/s\\$

Objects moving around a circular track will experience centripetal force towards the center of the circular track.

$centripetal\ force=mv^2/r\\=1.46\times10^3\times15^2/25\\=1.46\times 10^3\times 225/15\\=1.31\times 10^4 N$
