Answer: Speed is a scalar

LVelocity is a vector quantity

Explanation: Scalar quantity such as speed only have magnitude in them. It only indicates the strength on how an object is moving. For velocity it is a vector quantity it both have magnitude and involves direction where the object is moving.

A horizontal pipe of diameter 1.03m has a smooth constriction to a section of diameter 0.618 m. The density of oil flowing in th

vodka [1.7K]

Velocity of the oil in the pipe: 0.76 m/s, in the constricted section: 5.87 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Bernoulli's equation:

$p_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = p_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2$ (1)

where

$p_1 = 7340 N/m^2$ is the pressure in the pipe

$p_2 = 5505 N/m^2$ is the pressure in the constricted section

$\rho = 821 kg/m^3$ is the density of the oil

$v_1$ is the velocity of the oil in the pipe

$v_2$ is the velocity of the oil in the constricted section

Also, according to the continuity equation,

$A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2$

where

$A_1 = \pi r_1^2$ is the cross-sectional area of the pipe, with

$r_1 = \frac{1.03}{2}=0.515 m$ is the radius

$A_2 = \pi r_2^2$ is the cross-sectional area of the constricted section, with

$r_2=\frac{0.618}{2}=0.309 m$ is the radius

So the equation becomes

$r_1^2 v_1 = r_2^2 v_2$

So we can write

$v_2=\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}v_1$

Substituting into eq.(1),

$p_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = p_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho (\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}v_1)^2$

And solving the equation for $v_1$ :

$p_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = p_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho \frac{r_1^4}{r_2^4}v_1^2\\v_1=\sqrt{\frac{p_2-p_1}{\frac{1}{2}\rho-\frac{1}{2}\rho \frac{r_1^4}{r_2^4}}}=0.76 m/s$

And the velocity in the constricted section is

$v_2=\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}v_1=5.87 m/s$

How long could you survive without electricity? What parts of your life would be affected by loss of electricity?

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Depends on the person, if you are hooked to your phone which most people are these days, you might go a little crazy. But think cavemen or anybody long ago, they survived without electricity. People in Africa bathe in the lake or any water nearby, they also walk for miles just to get drinking water. So yes, if you really tried you could go without electricity for possibly your whole life. It sucks if you have homework though because you don't have Brainly :)
