Two streams merge to form a river. One stream has a width of 8.4 m, depth of 3.5 m, and current speed of 2.2 m/s. The other stre

am is 6.6 m wide and 3.6 m deep, and flows at 2.7 m/s. If the river has width 11.2 m and speed 2.8 m/s, what is its depth

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall solve this problem on the basis of pinciple that water is incompressible so volume of flow will be equal at every point .

rate of volume flow of one stream

= cross sectional area x velocity

= 8.4 x 3.5 x 2.2 = 64.68 m³ /s

rate of volume flow of other stream

= 6.6 x 3.6 x 2.7

= 64.15 m³ /s

rate of volume flow of rive , if d be its depth

= 11.2 x d x 2.8

= 31.36 d

volume flow of river = Total of volume flow rate of two streams

31.36 d  = 64.15 + 64.68

31.36 d  = 128.83

d = 4.10 m /s .

V125BC [204]

Answer:

"The wavelengths are the same for both. The width of slit 1 is larger than the width of slit 2."

Explanation:

The full question has not been provided, so I just copied this into the web and found this answer and explanation on quizlet:

"The wavelengths are the same for both. The width of slit 1 is larger than the width of slit 2.

D sin θ = m λ

if the wavelengths are the same, then if the angle is smaller, the slit width must be larger. The top photo shows a pattern that is more closely spaced. That means the angle is smaller. The slit width must be larger."

This answer/explanation should be correct, as we are looking at bright fringes and the formula being used corresponds to the parameters of the question.

Hope this helps!

_________ are exchanged or shared during the formation of a chemical bond.
Thepotemich [5.8K]
<span>A chemical bond is a lasting attraction between atoms, ions or molecules that enables the formation of chemical compounds. The bond may result from the electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions as in ionic bonds; or through the sharing of electrons as in covalent bonds.
