The water flowing through a 2.0 cm (inside diameter) pipe flows out through three 1.3 cm pipes. (a) If the flow rates in the thr

ee smaller pipes are 27, 16, and 11 L/min, what is the flow rate in the 2.0 cm pipe? (b) What is the ratio of the speed of water in the 2.0 cm pipe to that in the pipe carrying 27 L/min?

Answer:

a)54L/min

b)0.845

Explanation:

a) A x V=A_1V_1+ A_2V_2+A_3V_3

where suffix 1,2,3 refers to the three pipes.

            =27L/min+16L/min+11 L/min

            =54L/min

b) A x V=54L/min => \frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v

   d= 2 cm

\frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v = 54

v= \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{54}{2^2}

-> A_1 x V_1=27L/min => \frac{\pi }{4} d_1^2 x v_1

d_1= 1.3cm

\frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v_1 = 27

v_1= \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{27}{1.3^2}

Next is to find the ratio of speed i.e \frac{v}{v_1}

\frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{54}{2^2} / \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{27}{1.3^2} => \frac{54}{27} \frac{1.3^2}{2^2}

\frac{v}{v_1}= 0.845

nevsk [136]

Answer:

A. 2.2*10^-2m

Explanation:

Using

Area = length x L/ uo xN²

So A = 0.7m * 25 x 10^-3H /( 4π x10^-7*

3000²)

A = 17.5*10^-3/ 1.13*10^-5

= 15.5*10^-2m²

Area= π r ²

15.5E-2/3.142 = r²

2.2*10^2m

iVinArrow [24]

Answer

-Directly;  outside air pressure

Vapor pressure is directly related to the temperature of the liquid. user: in an open system, the vapor pressure is equal to the outside air pressure.

Explanation;

-As the temperature of a system increases, the average kinetic energy of the molecules increases in both the liquid and gas phases.

-A higher average kinetic energy facilitates the escape of molecules from the liquid phase into the gas phase. At the same time, the rate of return of gas phase molecules to the liquid also increases. A new equilibrium point is reached at a higher gaseous vapor pressure. The increase in vapor pressure with temperature is exponential.
