The force exerted on a bridge pier in a river is to be tested in a 1:10 scale model using water as the working fluid. In the pro

totype the depth of water is 2.0 m, the velocity of flow is 1.5 m/s and the width of the river is 20 m. If the hydrodynamic force on the model bridge pier is 5 N, what would it be on the prototype? (hint: pressure ratio is equal to the length-scale ratio) (5 points; Ans: 5000 N)

Answer:

f_p = 5000 N

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

pressure ratio = length ratio

force = 5 N

scale = 1:10

velocity = 1.5 m/s

B_p = 20 m

h_p = 2m

As pressure ratio = length ratio so we have

\frac{p_m}{p_p} =\frac{l_m}{l_p} =\frac{1}{10}

\frac{f_m *A_m}{f_p *A_p} ==\frac{1}{10}

\frac{f_m}{f_p} * \frac{A_p}{A_m} = \frac{1}{10}

\frac{f_m}{f_p} * \frac{b_p*h_p}{b_m*h_m} =\frac{1}{10}

5 * \frac{1}{\frac{1}{10}} *\frac{1}{\frac{1}{10}} = \frac{f_p}{10}

solving F_p

f_p = 5000 N

Suppose that the resistance between the walls of a biological cell is 6.8 × 109 ω. (a) what is the current when the potential di
GenaCL600 [577]
(a) We can find the current flowing between the walls by using Ohm's law:
I= \frac{\Delta V}{R}
where \Delta V=69 mV=0.069 V is the potential difference and R=6.8\cdot 10^9 \Omega is the resistance. Substituting these values, we get
I=1.01 \cdot 10^{-11} A

(b) The total charge flowing between the walls is the product between the current and the time interval:
Q=I \Delta t
The problem says \Delta t=0.86 s, so the total charge is
Q=(1.01\cdot 10^{-11} A)(0.86 s)=8.73 \cdot 10^{-12} C

The current consists of Na+ ions, each of them having a charge of e=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C. To find the number of ions flowing, we can simply divide the total charge by the charge of a single ion:
N= \frac{Q}{e} = \frac{8.73 \cdot 10^{-12}C}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C} = 5.45 \cdot 10^7 ions

The two pucks of equal mass did not move linearly (they came to a stop) after the collision due to the conservation of linear mo
weeeeeb [17]

Compared to the pucks given, the pair of pucks will rotate at the same rate.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The law of conservation of the angular momentum expresses that when no outer torque follows upon an article, no difference in angular momentum will happen.  At the point when an item is turning in a shut framework and no outside torques are applied to it, it will have no change in angular momentum.

The conservation of the angular momentum clarifies the angular quickening of an ice skater as she brings her arms and legs near the vertical rotate of revolution.  In the event, that the net torque is zero, at that point angular momentum is steady or saved.  

By twice the mass yet keeping the speeds unaltered, also twice the angular momentum's to the two-puck framework.  Be that as it may, we likewise double the moment of inertia. Since L=I \times \omega, the turning rate of the two-puck framework must stay unaltered.
