Two children, Ferdinand and Isabella, are playing with a water hose on a sunny summer day. Isabella is holding the hose in her h

and 1.0 meters above the ground and is trying to spray Ferdinand, who is standing 10.0 meters away. To increase the range of the water, Isabella places her thumb on the hose hole and partially covers it. Assuming that the flow remains steady, what fraction Image for Two children, Ferdinand and Isabella, are playing with a waterhose on a sunny summer day.

Answer:

 f = 0.84 or 84%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Original constant velocity of water v_o = 3.5 m/s

- The original diameter of the hose opening d_o = 1.5 cm

- The total vertical distance y(f) = 1.0 m

- The total range x(f) = 10.0 m

Find:

What fraction of the original area does Isabella has to reduce or pinch so the water can cover the entire range.

Solution:

- We will assume the flow of water as a stream of particles that follow a path of single point.

- Using second kinematic equation in the vertical direction and compute the time it takes the water to reach the ground:

                                  y(t) = y(0) + v_y*t + 0.5*gt^2

Where, y(0) = v_y = 0,

                                  1.0 = 0.5*g*t^2

                                  t = sqrt ( 2*1 / 9.81 )

                                  t = 0.4515 s

- Now we will use the second equation of motion for the x- direction motion:

                                 x(t) = x(0) + v_x*t

Where, x(0) = 0,

                                 10 = 0 + v_x*(0.4515)

                                 v_x = 10 / 0.4515 = 22.1 m/s

- We have calculated the minimum velocity required to reach the range from isabella and ferdinand.

- We will use the continuity equation to compute the area required for the velocity calculated v_x = 22.1 m/s:

                                A_f*v_x = A_o*v_o

                                A_f = A_o*v_o / v_x

                                A_f = pi*0.015^2*3.5 / 4*22.1

                                A_f = 1.12 * 10^-4 m^2

- The fraction f of the reduction of area is:

                                f = (A_o - A_f) / A_o

                                f = (7.068*10^-8 - 1.12*10^-4) / (7.068*10^-8)

                               f = 0.84 or 84%

Decrease 248 by 30%
Snowcat [4.5K]
Okay this equation really says is what is 30% of 248.

So, lets convert 30% to a fraction, 3/10 which is easier to work with.

All you have to do now is get out a calculator and do 248 *3/10 (or .3) and get 74.4

So subtract 74.4 and get

173.6

A student scored 66 points on his Psychology 101 midterm. If the average of his midterm and final must be between 78 and 90 incl
Paul [167]

Answer:

range of scores on final exam student get  B is 90 to 100

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

Psychology 101 score = 66

average of his midterm = between 78 and 90

maximum = 100 points

to find out

range of scores on final exam student get  B

solution

we consider here lowest marks need in final = x

so average at two marks should be

equation is  

average marks = 0.5 × ( mid term marks + final marks )      .................1

put here value

78 = 0.5 ×  ( 66 + x )

x = 90

and

90 = 0.5 ×  ( 66 + x )

x = 114

so range 90 to 114

but maximum marks is 100 so

range of scores on final exam student get  B is 90 to 100
