A garden hose is attached to a water faucet on one end and a spray nozzle on the other end. The water faucet is turned on, but t

he nozzle is turned off so that no water flows through the hose. The hose lies horizontally on the ground, and a stream of water sprays vertically out of a small leak to a height of 0.78 m.
What is the pressure inside the hose?

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to pressure depending on the depth (or height) in which the object is on that fluid. By definition this expression is given as

P = P_{atm} +\rho gh

Where,

P_{atm} = Atmospheric Pressure

\rho =Density, water at this case

g = Gravity

h = Height

The equation basically tells us that under a reference pressure, which is terrestrial, as one of the three variables (gravity, density or height) increases the pressure exerted on the body. In this case density and gravity are constant variables. The only variable that changes in the frame of reference is the height.

Our values are given as

P_{atm} = 1.013*10^5Pa

\rho = 1000Kg/m^3

g = 9.8m/s^2

h = 0.78m

Replacing at the equation we have,

P = P_{atm} +\rho gh

P = 1.013*10^5 +(1000)(9.8)(0.78)

P = 108944Pa

P = 0.1089Mpa

Therefore the pressure inside the hose is 0.1089Mpa

Neko [114]
Frequency (f) = 500 hz (SI)
Velocity (V) = 1250 m/s (SI)
Wavelength (Lambda) = ? meters

v =  \lambda \times f
1250 =  \lambda \times 500 \\ \lambda = 1250 \div 500 \\ \lambda = 2.5 \: meters

The answer would be “B” because humans would need water, protection from radiation so we don’t melt or burn to death lol, and a gaseous atmosphere because we would need oxygen.

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

(a) Negative Q

(b) Positive Q

Explanation:

Charge is the inherent property of matter due to the transference of electrons.

There are three methods of charging a body.

(i) Charging by friction: When two uncharged bodies rubbed together, then one body gets positive charged and the other is negatively charges it is due to the transference of electrons form one body to another.  

(ii) Conduction: when a charged body comes in contact with the another uncharged body, the uncharged body gets the same charge and the charge is distributed equally.

(iii) Induction: When a uncharged body keep near the charged body, the uncharged body gets the same amount of charge but opposite in sign.  

(a) When a small tack of charge Q is lowered into the hole, then due to the process of induction, the charge on the inner surface of the shell is - Q.

(b) Due to the process of conduction, the charge on the outer surface of the shell is Q.

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The population will increase because grasshoppers are the prey.

Explanation:

If there has been a significant decrease in the praying mantis population in recent years. This most likely affect the grasshopper population over time by the population will increase because grasshoppers are the prey. If there is less praying mantis then grasshoppers won't be eaten as much so the population of the grasshoppers will thrive
