Answer:
Flow rate 2.34 m3/s
Diameter 0.754 m
Explanation:
Assuming steady flow, the volume flow rate along the pipe will always be constant, and equals to the product of flow speed and cross-section area.
The area at the well head is
So the volume flow rate along the pipe is
We can use the similar logic to find the cross-section area at the refinery
The radius of the pipe at the refinery is:
So the diameter is twice the radius = 0.38*2 = 0.754m
Kinetic energy is never negative, but potential energy can be.
Potential energy depends on height above some reference level,
and you can pick any level you want as the reference. So, if the
object is below the reference level you pick, then its potential
energy relative to your reference level is negative.
What that means is: You have to lift it / do work on it / give it more
energy than it has now ... in order to move it to the reference level.
(That's exactly the situation with electrons bound to an atom. Their
energy is considered negative, because we have to do work and
give them more energy to rip them away from the atom.)
_____________________________________
Regarding the other choices:
-- Kinetic energy is scalar ... Yes. So is potential energy.
-- Kinetic energy increases with height ...
No. It doesn't, but potential energy does.
-- Kinetic energy depends on position ...
No. It doesn't, but potential energy does.
Vector u :
u = 6 i - 3 j
The magnitude of vector u :
| u | =
Answer:
The magnitude of vector u is 3√5.
I would say the last one but I’m not sure if I’m directly correct ..
