Answer:W = 1.23×10^-6BTU

Explanation: Work = Surface tension × (A1 - A2)

W= Surface tension × 3.142 ×(D1^2 - D2^2)

Where A1= Initial surface area

A2= final surface area

Given:

D1=0.5 inches , D2= 3 inches

D1= 0.5 × (1ft/12inches)

D1= 0.0417 ft

D2= 3 ×(1ft/12inches)

D2= 0.25ft

Surface tension = 0.005lb ft^-1

W = [(0.25)^2 - (0.0417)^2]

W = 954 ×10^6lbf ft × ( 1BTU/778lbf ft)

W = 1.23×10^-6BTU

A semicircular plate with radius 6 m is submerged vertically in water so that the top is 2 m above the surface. Express the hydr
dalvyx [7]

Answer: 313920

Explanation:First, we’re going to assume that the top of the circular plate surface is 2 meters under the water. Next, we will set up the axis system so that the origin of the axis system is at the center of the plate.

Finally, we will again split up the plate into n horizontal strips each of width Δy and we’ll choose a point y∗ from each strip. Attached to this is a sketch of the set up.

The water’s surface is shown at the top of the sketch. Below the water’s surface is the circular plate and a standard xy-axis system is superimposed on the circle with the center of the circle at the origin of the axis system. It is shown that the distance from the water’s surface and the top of the plate is 6 meters and the distance from the water’s surface to the x-axis (and hence the center of the plate) is 8 meters.

The depth below the water surface of each strip is,

di = 8 − yi

and that in turn gives us the pressure on the strip,

Pi =ρgdi = 9810 (8−yi)

The area of each strip is,

Ai = 2√4− (yi) 2Δy

The hydrostatic force on each strip is,

Fi = Pi Ai=9810 (8−yi) (2) √4−(yi)² Δy

The total force on the plate is found on the attached image.

Harrison wanted to find out what soil works best for growing roses. He grew them in potting soil, clay, sand, and soil he found
zepelin [54]

Answer:

This question is asking to identify the following variables:

Independent variable (IV): TYPE OF SOIL

Dependent variable (DV): HEIGHT AND NUMBER OF LEAVES

Control group: None in this experiment

Constant: SAME ROSE PLANT, SAME TIME INTERVAL (1 WEEK)

Explanation:

Independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is manipulated or changed by the experimenter in order to effect a measurable outcome. In this case, the independent variable is the TYPE OF SOIL used.

Dependent variable is the measurable variable that responds to changes made to the independent variable. In this experiment, the dependent variable is the HEIGHT AND NUMBER OF LEAVES of each rose.

Constants or control variable is the variable that is kept unchanged or constant for all groups throughout the experiment. In this experiment, the constants are SAME ROSE PLANT, SAME TIME INTERVAL (1 WEEK).

Control group are the groups that does not receive the experimental treatment. In this case, all the groups received the experimental treatment (different soil types). Hence, there is no control
