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 .

What is the longest wavelength of radiation with enough energy to break carbon-carbon bonds?
iogann1982 [59]

The longest wavelength of radiation used to break carbon-carbon bonds is 344 nm.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The longest wavelength of radiation can also be stated as the minimum radiation frequency required to cut carbon-carbon bond should be equal to the threshold energy of the carbon-carbon bonds.

The threshold energy will be equal to the binding energy of the carbon-carbon bonds. As it is known that carbon-carbon bonds exhibit a binding energy of 348 kJ/mole, the threshold energy to break it, is determined as followed.

First, we have to convert the energy from kJ/mol to J, i.e., energy for the carbon-carbon molecules,

\text { Energy } = \frac{348 \mathrm{KJ} / \mathrm{mol}}{6.023 \times 10^{23} \text { photons }} \times 1 \text { mole } \times 1000 = 57.77 \times 10^{-20} = 5.78 \times 10^{-19} J

As,

         E=h v=\frac{h c}{\lambda}

So,

\lambda=\frac{h c}{E}=\frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 * 10^{8}}{5.78 \times 10^{-19}}=3.44 \times 10^{-7}

Thus, \lambda=344 \mathrm{nm} is the longest wavelength of radiation used to break carbon-carbon bonds.

A grasshopper leaps into the air at a 62° angle above the horizontal, and follows a parabolic arc in free fall after it leaves t
harina [27]

Answer:

d. None of the above.

Explanation:

In a parabolic motion, you have that in the complete trajectory the component velocity is constant and the vertical component changes in time. Then, the total velocity vector is not zero.

In the complete trajectory the gravitational acceleration is always present. Then, the grasshopper's acceleration vector is not zero.

At the top of the arc the grasshopper is not at equilibrium because the gravitational force is constantly acting on the grasshopper.

Then, the correct answer is:

d. None of the above.

A dog running to the right at 4 m/s sees a ball and accelerates steadily to catch it. The dog accelerates to the right at a rate
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

D.-4.798m/s

Explanation:

Greetings !

Given values

u= 4ms \\ a = 0.21ms {}^{2}  \\ t = 3.8sec

Solve for V of the given expression

Firstly, recall the velocity-time equation

v = u + at

plug in known values to the equation

v = (4) + (0.21)(3.8)

solve for final velocity

v = 4.792ms

Hope it helps!
