water jet leaves a horizontal nozzle with a velocity of 12 m/s and mass flow rate of 30 kg/sstrikes the vertical wall of a cart

moving at a fixed direction. After the strike, the water splatters ofin all directions on the surface of the cart wall. Determine the force which must be applied to thecart to: (a) keep it moving at a constant velocity of 4 m/s, (b) to keep it motionless at a fixed posi-tion. Assume that the density of water is 1000 kg/m3.

Answer:

a) 160 N

b) 360 N

Explanation:

v = 12 m/s

$\dot{m}$ = 30 kg/s

ρ = 1000 kg/m^3

a) when the water jet is moving at a constant velocity, then force exerted by the jet in the moving plane,

Fx = ρA(v- 4)^2

$\dot{m}$ =ρAv

30 = 1000*A*12

A=2.5*10^(-3)

Fx = ρA(v-4)

Fx = 1000*2.5*10^(-3)*(12 - 4)^2

Fx = 160 N

b) When water jet striking on a stationary vertical plate, the force in the direction of jet:

Fx = ρAv^2

Fx = 1000*2.5*10^(-3)*12^2

Fx = 360 N

A carbon resistor is to be used as a thermometer. On a winter day when the temperature is 4.00 ∘C∘C, the resistance of the carbo

likoan [24]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

16°C

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The equation relating temperature with resistance is given as follows;

$R_{T}$ = $R_{0}$ [ $\alpha$ ( $T^{}$ - $T_{0}$ ) + 1] --------------(i)

<em>Where;</em>

$T_{0}$ = Temperature at some reference point

$R_{0}$ = Resistance at the reference point

T = Temperature at some other point

$R_{T}$ = Resistance at the other point

$\alpha$ = constant called "temperature coefficient of the resistor material"

<em>From the question; </em>

Let's take the reference point temperature ( $T_{0}$ ) as 4.00°C;

Therefore;

$R_{0}$ = Resistance at the reference point = 217.4Ω

$R_{T}$ = Resistance at the other point = 216.0Ω

$\alpha$ = Temperature coefficient of the resistor material (carbon) = -0.0005/°C

<em>Now substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

216.0 = 217.4 [(-0.0005)( $T^{}$ - 4) + 1]

216.0 = 217.4 [-0.0005 $T^{}$ + 0.002 + 1]

216.0 = 217.4 [-0.0005 $T^{}$ + 1.002]

<em>Divide through by 217.4 as follows;</em>

0.994 = 1.002 - 0.0005T

<em>Solve for T;</em>

0.0005T = 1.002 - 0.994

0.0005T = 0.008

T = 0.008 / 0.0005

T = 16°C

Therefore, the temperature on a spring day at that resistance is 16°C

A new system of units is invented where the basic unit of length is the "dak." The "dak" is defined as equal to 3 inches, and th

Goryan [66]

Answer:

1 cm = 0.131 daks

Explanation:

It is given that,

1 dak = 3 inches

and

1 inch = 2.54 cm

We need to find how many "daks" are there in a centimeter. We can do the conversions as follows :

$1\ dak=1\ dak\times \dfrac{3\ inches}{1\ dak}\times \dfrac{2.54\ cm}{1\ inch}$

$1\ dak=7.62\ cm$

$1\ cm=\dfrac{1}{7.62}\ dak$

1 cm = 0.131 dak

So, there are 0.131 daks in 1 centimeter. Hence, this is the required solution.

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the Drag force and the Force of Gravity.

For the given point, that is, the moment at which the terminal velocity is reached, the two forces equalize, that is,

$F_D =F_g$

By definition we know that the Drag force is defined as

$F_D= \frac{1}{2} C_d \rho A V^2$

Where,

$C_d =$ Drag coefficient

$\rho =$ Density

A =Cross-sectional Area

V = Velocity

In the other hand we have,

$F_g = (m_1 +m_2) g$

Where,

$m_1 =$ Mass of sphere

$m_2 =$ Mass of unknown object

Equating the two equations we have to

$(m_1 +m_2) g=\frac{1}{2} C_d \rho A V^2$

Re-arrange for m_2,

$m_2 = \frac{1}{2g} C_d \rho A V^2 -m_1$

Our values are given by,

$C_d = 0.5$

$\rho = 1.22Kg/m^3$

$V = 66.7m/s$

$m_1 = 3Kg$

$d= 32.7*10^{-2}m$

$r = 16.35*10^{-2}m$

Replacing in the equation we have,

$m_2 = \frac{1}{2(9.8)}(0.5) (1.22) (\pi*(16.35*10^{-2})^2)*66.7^2 -3$

$m_2 = 8.62Kg$

<em>Therefore the mass of unknown object is 8.62Kg</em>

Which three factors are used to calculate gravitational potential energy?

Elis [28]

Explanation:

PEgrav = m *• g • h

In the above equation, m represents the mass of the object, h represents the height of the object and g represents the gravitational field strength (9.8 N/kg on Earth) - sometimes referred to as the acceleration of gravity.
