Water, which we can treat as ideal and incompressible, flows at 12 m/s in a horizontal pipe with a pressure of 3.0 x 10^4 Pa. If

the pipe widens to twice its original radius, what is the pressure in the wider section?

Answer:

p2 = 9.8×10^4 Pa

Explanation:

Total pressure is constant and PT = P = 1/2×ρ×v^2  

So p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 = p2 + 1/2×ρ×(v2)^2

from continuity we have ρ×A1×v1 = ρ×A2×v2  

v2 = v1×A1/A2  

and  

r2 = 2×r1

then:

A2 = 4×A1  

so,

v2 = (v1)/4  

then:

p2 = p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 - 1/2×ρ×(v2)^2 = p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 - 1/2×ρ×(v1/4)^2  

p2 = 3.0×10^4 Pa + 1/2×(1000 kg/m^3)×(12m/s)^2 - 1/2×(1000kg/m^3)×(12^2/16)  

     = 9.75×10^4 Pa

    = 9.8×10^4 Pa

Therefore, the pressure in the wider section is 9.8×10^4 Pa

In a single-slit diffraction experiment, the slit is 0.1mm wide and is illuminatedby monochromatic light with a wavelength of 50
dem82 [27]

Answer:

0.1 m

Explanation:

d = slit width = 0.1 mm = 0.1 x 10⁻³ m

\lambda = wavelength of monochromatic light = 500 nm = 500 x 10⁻⁹ m

D = Distance of the screen = 10 m

w = Spacing between successive minima

Spacing between successive minima is given as

w = \frac{2D\lambda }{d}

Inserting the values given

w = \frac{2(10)(500\times10^{-9}) }{0.1\times10^{-3}}

w = 0.1 m

A custodian pushes a large crate across the gym floor what forces are appied
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

When a custodian pushes a large crate across the gym floor, forces acting on the crate are the one applied by the custodian, frictional force acting in the opposite direction of motion acting between the surface of crate and floor and reaction force (normal force) acting in upward direction normal to the surface.
