Complete Question

For each of the following scenarios, describe the force providing the centripetal force for the motion:

a. a car making a turn

b. a child swinging around a pole

c. a person sitting on a bench facing the center of a carousel

d. a rock swinging on a string

e. the Earth orbiting the Sun.

Answer:

Considering a

    The force providing the centripetal force is the frictional force on the tires \

          i.e  \mu mg  =  \frac{mv^2}{r}

    where \mu is the coefficient of static friction

Considering b

   The force providing the centripetal force is the force experienced by the boys  hand on the pole

Considering c

     The force providing the centripetal force is the normal from the bench due to the boys weight

Considering d

     The force providing the centripetal force is the tension on the string

Considering e

      The force providing the centripetal force is the force of gravity between the earth and the sun

AlekseyPX

Answer:

Part (a) The flow rate per unit width of the aquifer is 1.0875 m³/day

Part (b) The specific discharge of the flow is 0.0363 m/day

Part (c) The average linear velocity of the flow is 0.242 m/day

Part (d) The time taken for a tracer to travel the distance between the observation wells is 4132.23 days = 99173.52 hours

Explanation:

Part (a) the flow rate per unit width of the aquifer

From Darcy's law;

q = -Kb\frac{dh}{dl}

where;

q is the flow rate

K is the permeability or conductivity of the aquifer = 25  m/day

b is the aquifer thickness

dh is the change in th vertical hight = 50.9m - 52.35m = -1.45 m

dl is the change in the horizontal hight = 1000 m

q = -(25*30)*(-1.45/1000)

q = 1.0875 m³/day

Part (b) the specific discharge of the flow

V = \frac{Q}{A} = \frac{q}{b} = -K\frac{dh}{dl}\\\\V = -(25 m/d).(\frac{-1.45 m}{1000 m}) = 0.0363 m/day

V = 0.0363 m/day

Part (c) the average linear velocity of the flow assuming steady unidirectional flow

Va = V/Φ

Φ is the porosity = 0.15

Va = 0.0363 / 0.15

Va = 0.242 m/day

Part (d) the time taken for a tracer to travel the distance between the observation wells

The distance between the two wells = 1000 m

average linear velocity = 0.242 m/day

Time = distance / speed

Time = (1000 m) / (0.242 m/day)

Time = 4132.23 days

        = 4132.23 days *\frac{24 .hrs}{1.day} = 99173.52, hours
