A student fills a tank of radius r with water to a height of h1 and pokes a small, 1.0 cm diameter hole at a distance h2 from th

Alik [6]

when a hole is made at the bottom of the container then water will flow out of it

The speed of ejected water can be calculated by help of Bernuolli's equation and Equation of continuity.

By Bernoulli's equation we can write

$Po + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 + \rho g h = Po + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 + \rho g *0$

Now by equation of continuity

$A_1v_1 = A_2v_2$

$\pi (0.2)^2 v_1 = \pi (0.01)^2 v_2$

from above equation we can say that speed at the top layer is almost negligible.

$v_1 = 0$

now again by equation of continuity

$\rho g h = \frac{1}{2} \rho v^2$

$v = \sqrt{2 g h}$

here we have

$h = h_1 - h_2$

$h = 0.50 - 0.03 = 0.47m$

now speed is given by

$v = \sqrt{2* 9.8 * 0.47}$

$v = 3.03 m/s$

When the weight of the object increase block what is the force of friction applied? Explanation?

erik [133]

Answer:

There is absolutely No relationship between the weight of an object (which is constant) and the frictional force. If a block is sliding on a surface, that surface will be exerting a force on the block. That force can be resolved into a component parallel to the surface (which we call the frictional component), and a component perpendicular to the surface (called the normal component). For many situations, we find experimentally that the frictional component is approximately proportional to the normal component. The frictional component divided by the normal component is defined to be a quantity called the coefficient of kinetic or sliding friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction obviously depends on the nature of the surfaces involved. The normal component on an object can be decreased if you pull in the direction of the normal component (the weight does not change). However pulling this way on the object not only decreases the normal component, but it also decreases the frictional component since they are proportional. This is why it is easier to slide something if you pull up on it while you push it. If you push down, the normal and frictional components increase so it is harder to slide the object. The weight of an object is the downward force exerted by Earth’s gravity on that object, and it does not change no matter how you push or pull on the object.

Coherent light of frequency 6.37×1014 Hz passes through two thin slits and falls on a screen 88.0 cm away. You observe that the

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The distance between the two slits is 40.11 μm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency $f= 6.37\times10^{14}\ Hz$

Distance of the screen l = 88.0 cm

Position of the third order y =3.10 cm

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}$

where, c = speed of light

f = frequency

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{6.37\times10^{14}}$

$\lambda=471\ nm$

We need to calculate the distance between the two slits

$m\times \lambda=d\sin\theta$

$d =\dfrac{m\times\lambda}{\sin\theta}$

Where, m = number of fringe

d = distance between the two slits

Here, $\sin\theta =\dfrac{y}{l}$

Put the value into the formula

$d=\dfrac{3\times471\times10^{-9}\times88.0\times10^{-2}}{3.10\times10^{-2}}$

$d=40.11\times10^{-6}\ m$

$d = 40.11\ \mu m$

Hence, The distance between the two slits is 40.11 μm.
