Water enters a typical garden hose of diameter 0.016 m with a velocity of 3 m/s. Calculate the exit velocity of water from the g
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

v₂ = 306.12 m/s

Explanation:

We know that the volume flow rate of the water or any in-compressible liquid remains constant throughout motion. Therefore, from continuity equation, we know that:

A₁v₁ = A₂v₂

where,

A₁ = Area of entrance pipe = πd₁²/4 = π(0.016 m)²/4 = 0.0002 m²

v₁ = entrance velocity = 3 m/s

A₂ = Area of nozzle = πd₂²/4 = π(0.005 m)²/4 = 0.0000196 m²

v₂ = exit velocity = ?

Therefore,

(0.0002 m²)(3 m/s) = (0.0000196 m²)v₂

v₂ = (0.006 m³/s)/(0.0000196 m²)

<u>v₂ = 306.12 m/s</u>

A sinusoidal sound wave moves through a medium and is described by the displacement wave function
ZanzabumX [31]

By applying the wave equation we know that the maximum speed of the element's oscillatory motion is 1716 micrometer / s.

We need to know about wave equations to solve this problem. The displacement of the wave on the y-axis can be explained by the wave equation

y = A cos (kx - ωt)

where y is y-axis displacement, A is amplitude, k is wave number, x is x-axis displacement, ω is angular speed and t is time.

the wavenumber and angular speed of the wave equation can be determined respectively by

k = 2π / λ

ω = 2πf

where k is the wavenumber, λ is wavelength and f is frequency.

From the question above, we know that:

y = 2.00cos (15.7x - 858t)

v = dy / dt

v = d(2.00cos (15.7x - 858t)) / dt

v = -858 x (-2.00sin(15.7x - 858t))

v = 1716 sin(15.7x - 858t) micrometer/s

maximum velocity can be reached when (sinθ = 1), hence

v = 1716 sin(15.7x - 858t)

v = 1716 x 1

v = 1716 micrometer / s

Thing 1 and Thing 2 push with a force of 2000 N to move a rather small 500 kg elephant 30 m across the kitchen floor. How much w
Amanda [17]

Answer:

60000 J

Explanation:

Assuming the force is applied parallel to the displacement of the elephant, the work done to move it across the floor is

W=Fd

where

F = 2000 N is the force applied

d = 30 m is the displacement of the elephant

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

W=(2000 N)(30 m)=60,000 J

The four-wheel-drive all-terrain vehicle has a mass of 385 kg with center of mass G2. The driver has a mass of 75 kg with center
jenyasd209 [6]

The coefficient of friction is missing and it has a value of μ = 0.4

Answer:

a = 3.924 m/s²

Explanation:

I've attached the kinematic free body diagram.

Taking the sum of all upward and downward forces,

EFy = 0;

N1 + N2 - m_p•g - m_v•g = 0

N1 + N2 = m_p•g + m_v•g

Where;

N1 and N2 are the normal reactions at the wheels

m_p is the mass of the driver

m_v is the mass of the vehicle

g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Plugging in the relevant values in the question,we obtain;

N1 + N2 = (385 + 75) x 9.81

N1 + N2 = 4512.6N - - - (eq1)

Now, taking sum of all horizontal forces;

EFx = (m_p + m_v) x a

So,

μ(N1 + N2) = (mp + mv) x a

Thus,

0.4(N1 + N2) = (385 + 75)a

0.4(N1 + N2) = 460a

N1 + N2 = 1150a

From eq(1),N1 + N2 = 4512.6N

Thus,

1150a = 4512.6N

a = 4512.6/1150

a = 3.924 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration, a = 3.924 m/s²

A centripetal force causes circular motion because it accelerates an object
MAVERICK [17]

The answer is option A.

Centripetal force is always directed towards the centre and does not change the speed of the body,but there is a change in the direction.
