LenaWriter [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The steam engine of James watt is more efficient than Newcomen ans more suitable for the industrial revolution.

Explanation:

James Watt is more widely know for working steam engine because Watt has created better engine which is suitable for the industrial revolution. The steam engine of James watt is more efficient than Newcomen. Watt developed the condensing arrangement by using piston which lessen the initial pressure leading to effectively worked than Newcomen's

A horizontal pipe of inner diameter 2.2 cm carries water with a density of 1000.0 kg/m3 flowing at a rate of 1.5 kg/s. If the pi
EleoNora [17]

The speed of the water in the wider part will be 1.194 m/sec. Speed is a time-based quantity. Its SI unit is m/sec.

<h3> What is speed?</h3>

Speed is defined as the rate of change of the distance or the height attained.

The given data in the problem is;

The initial diameter is,\rm d_1 = 2.2 \ cm

initial radius,

r_1 = \frac{d_1}{2} \\\\ r_1 = \frac{2.2}{2} \\\\ r_1 = 1.1\ cm

The initial crossection area;

\rm A_1 = \pi r_1^2 \\\\ \rm A_1 = 3.14 \times  (1.1\times 10^{-2})^2 \\\\ \rm A_1 =3.8 \times 10^{-4} \ m^2

The final crossection area;

\rm A_2 = \pi r_2^2 \\\\ \rm A_2 = 3.14 \times ( 2 \times 10^{-2})^2 \\\\ \rm A_2 = 12.56 \ m^2

The initial flow rate is;

R = density ×velocity ×area

\rm R = \rho A V \\\\ 1.5 = 1000 \times V_1 \times 3.8 \times 10^{-4} \\\\ V_1  = 3.947 \ m/sec

The speed of the water in the wider part will be;

From the continuity equation;

\rm A_1 V_1 = A_2V_2  \\\\\ 3.8 \times 10^{-4} \times 3.947 = 12.56 \times 10^{-4} \times V_2 \\\\ V_2= 1.194 \ m/sec

Hence, the speed of the water in the wider part will be 1.194 m/sec.

Which statement describes between a cup if cold water and a cup of boiling water
marishachu [46]
The thermal energy keeps these two changing their temperature over time. 

The surrounding temperature (environment) clearly effects the cold water AND the boiling water. 

Eventually, both would reach an equilibrium in temperature. <span />

The sun is about 150 million km away from earth. The rays of sunlight that reach earth’s atmosphere are best represented as ____
tangare [24]

Five

The diagram that represents rays from the sun is given below.

The answer from the diagram is parallel lines.

Six

The formula for this is n_i * Sin(i) = n_r * sin(r)

n1 = 1.333 water

n2 = 1.309 ice

i (angle) = 40o

r (angle) = ?

Solution

1.333 * sin(40) = 1.309*sin(r)

1.333 * sin(40)/1.309 = sin(r)

0.6546 = sin(r)

sin-1(0.6546)  = 40.88 degrees.

I guess my closest answer would be A. I'm not rounding at all and that's the answer I get.

a trcuk weighs four times as much as a stationary car. if teh truck coasts into the car at 12 km/s and they stick toegther, what
Andrews [41]

Answer:

  v=9.6 km/s

Explanation:

Given that

The mass of the car =  m

The mass of the truck = 4 m

The velocity of the truck ,u= 12 km/s

The final velocity when they stick = v

If there is no any external force on the system  then the total linear momentum of the system will be conserve.

Pi = Pf

m x 0 + 4 m x 12 = (m + 4 m) x v

0 + 48 m = 5 m v

5  v  = 48

v=\dfrac{48}{5}\ km/s

v=9.6 km/s

Therefore the final velocity will be 9.6 km/s.

For a transverse wave, what is a wavefront?
vichka [17]

Explanation:

A wavefront is the long edge that moves, for example, the crest or the trough. Each point on the wavefront emits a semicircular wave that moves at the propagation speed v. These are drawn at a time t later, so that they have moved a distance s = vt.
