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

Starting at 1.0 m/s, a cheetah runs with a constant acceleration for 4.8 s reaching a speed of 28 m/s. What is the acceleration
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

c.5.6m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial velocity of cheetah,u=1 m/s

Time taken by cheetah =4.8 s

Final velocity of cheetah,v=28 m/s

We have to find the acceleration of this cheetah.

We know that

Acceleration,a=\frac{v-u}{t}

Where v=Final velocity of object

u=Initial velocity of object

t=Time taken by object

Using the formula

Then, we get

Acceleration, a=\frac{28-1}{4.8}=\frac{27}{4.8} m/s^2

Acceleration=a=5.6 m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration of cheetah=5.6m/s^2

Two identical light springs with spring constant k3 are now individually hung vertically from the ceiling and attached at each e
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

 Keq = 2k₃

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using Newton's second one

                F = m a

Where F is the eleatic force of the spring F = - k x

Since we have two springs, they are parallel or they are stretched the same distance by the object and the response force Fe is the same for the spring age due to having the same displacement

          F + F = m a

         k₃ x + k₃ x = m a

         a = 2k₃  x / m

To find the effective force constant, suppose we change this spring to what creates the cuddly displacement

       Keq = 2k₃
