The largest water tower in Camden holds 2,000,000-gallons at 24 meters in the air.

Physics

DaniilM [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

The Camden holds a volume of

V = 2,000,000 gallons

At a height of

h = 24 m

We want to find the potential energy.

And potential energy can be calculated using

P.E = mgh

Where

m is the mass

g Is the acceleration due to gravity

h Is the height.

Given that,

Then volume is

V = 2,000,000 gallons

From research.

1 gallon ≈ 3.785 kg

Then,

2,000,000 gallons = 2,000,000 × 3.785 kg

So,

P.E = mgh

P.E = 2,000,000 × 3.785 × 9.81 × 24

P.E = 1.782 × 10^9 J.

Enter the following expression in the answer box below: 2gλ3m−−−−√, where λ is the lowercase Greek letter lambda.
atroni [7]

Answer:

  \sqrt{\dfrac{2g\lambda^3}{m}}

Explanation:

We can write the expression here, but the point of the problem seems to be to see if you can manipulate the controls on the answer box to reproduce that expression.

  \boxed{\sqrt{\dfrac{2g\lambda^3}{m}}}

Suppose you were digging a well into saturated sediments. Why is the sediment’s permeability an important factor in deciding whe
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The importance of the sediments permeability is that if it is permeable, water will flow easily through the sediment and thereby produce a very good supply of water for the well.

Explanation:

When digging a well into saturated sediments, the possibility of the sediment with either little saturation or full saturation being able to provide steady water supply will be limited by how permeable it is. Now, the importance of the sediments permeability is that if it is permeable, water will flow easily through the sediment and thereby produce a very good supply of water for the well.
