Answer:

1.99 parsecs.

Explanation:

We have been given that the most recently discovered system close to Earth is a pair of brown dwarfs known as Luhman 16. It has a distance of 6.5 light-years.

We know that one light year equals to 0.306601 parsecs. To convert 6.5 light-years to parsecs, we will multiply 0.306601 by 6.5.

6.5\text{ Light-years}=6.5\times 0.306601\text{ Parsecs}

6.5\text{ Light-years}=1.9929065\text{ Parsecs}

6.5\text{ Light-years}\approx 1.99\text{ Parsecs}

Therefore, Luhman 16 is approximately 1.99 parsecs away from the Earth.

Water enters a house at 1.5 m/s through a pipe with an inside radius of 1.0cm and at a pressure of 400,000 Pa. The water then tr
kupik [55]

Answer:

pressure of the water = 3.3 × 10^{5} pa

Explanation:

given data

velocity v1 = 1.5 m/s

pressure P = 400,000 Pa

inside radius r1 = 1.00 cm

pipe radius r2 = 0.5 cm  

h1 = 0 (datum at inlet)

h2 = 5.0 m (datum at inlet)

density of water ρ = 1000 kg/m³

to find out

pressure of the water

solution

we consider here flow speed in bathroom that is =  v2 and Pressure in bathroom is =  P2  

here we will use both continuity and Bernoulli equations

because here we have more than one unknown so that  

v1 × A1 = v2 × A2 × P1 +  ρ g h1 + (0.5)ρ v1² = P2 + ρ g h2 + (0.5) ρ v2²

now we use here first continuity equation for get v2

v2 = v1 \frac{A1}{A2}    

v2 = 1.5 \frac{\pi * 0.01^2}{\pi * 0.005^2}    

v2 = 6 m/s

and now we use here bernoulli eqution for find here p2 that is

P2 = P1 - 0.5× ρ ×(v2² - v1²) - ρ g (h2- h1 )

P2 = 400000  - 0.5× 1000 ×(6² - 1.5²) - 1000 × 9.81 × (5-0 )

P2 = 3.3 × 10^{5} pa

klasskru [66]

Answer:

The disorder in the universe is increasing with time.

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics states that the amount of entropy in the universe increases over time. Entropy expresses the number of different configurations that a system defined by macroscopic variables could assume. Therefore, is can be interpreted as a measure of the disorder, or randomness of a system.
