The viscosity of a fluid is to be measured by a viscometer constructed of two 80-cm-long concentric cylinders. The outer diamete

r of the inner cylinder is 15 cm, and the gap between the two cylinders is 1 mm. The inner cylinder is rotated at 300 rpm, and the torque is measured to be 0.8 N·m. Determine the viscosity of the fluid.

Answer:

The viscosity of the fluid is 0.012 kg m⁻¹ s⁻¹

Explanation:

Given :

Length of concentric cylinders, L = 80 cm = 0.8 m

Outer diameter of inner cylinder, D = 15 cm = 0.15 m

Gap between two cylinders = 1 mm = 0.001 m

Rotation of inner cylinder = 300 rpm

Torque, τ = 0.8 Nm

The relation to determine area is:

A = πDL

A = π x 0.15 x 0.8 = 0.38 m²

The relation to determine velocity is:

v=\frac{\pi DN }{60}

Here N is number of rotation per second.

v=\frac{\pi\times0.15\times300 }{60}

v = 2.36 m/s

The relation to determine force between the two layers:

F=\frac{\tau}{r}

F=\frac{0.8}{0.075}

F = 10.67 N

Using Law of viscosity,

\eta=\frac{F/A}{\Delta v/\Delta y }

\eta=\frac{10.67/0.38}{2.36/0.001}

<em>η = </em>0.012 kg m⁻¹ s⁻¹

Explain how waves, energy, and matter are related
Stels [109]

Answer:

Mechanical waves need matter to transfer energy while electromagnetic waves do not. ... Waves change direction when they move from one material into another (matter) through the process of refraction. The wave will change direction when the speed of the wave changes.

Is an imaginary "line" from the earth to the moon a line, a ray, or a segment? Why?
igomit [66]

Answer;

- Line segment

Explanation;

"from earth to moon" implies endpoints at both locations and it is thus a line segment

A line extends forever in both directions, a line segment is just part of a line. It has two endpoints, and a ray starts at one point and continues on forever in one direction.

A mars prototype carrying scientific instruments has a mass of 1060kg. a net force of 52000 n is applied to this roverat a test
Nitella [24]

F = 52000 N

m = 1060 kg

a= F/m = 52000 N/1060 kg = 49.0566 m/s^2

Describe two examples of how humans use electromagnetic waves.
Alex73 [517]
Electromagnetic waves are used in everyday life. You are looking at your computer screen right now. The light that is coming off of the screen is visible light, a form of electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic waves are also used to send information. For example, AM or FM radios are radio waves that transfer sound information to your local radio.
