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 .

Write down an equation describing a sinusoidal traveling wave (in 1-D). Tell us (words and/or equations) what in your equation t

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The standard equation of the sinusoidal wave in one dimension is given by

$y = A Sin\left ( \frac{2\pi }{\lambda }\left ( vt-x \right )+\phi \right )$

Here, A be the amplitude of the wave

λ be the wavelength of the wave

v be the velocity of the wave

Φ be the phase angle

x be the position of the wave

t be the time

this wave is travelling along positive direction of X axis

The frequency of wave is f which relates with velocity and wavelength as given below

v = f x λ

The relation between the time period and the frequency is

f = 1 / T.

A golf ball is released from rest from the top of a very tall building. Choose a coordinate system whose origin is at the starti

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Velocity of the ball after 3.04 (s) = 29.79 (m/s)

Explanation:

From the free fall movement we have the following formulas: $Vf^{2} = Vo^{2} - 2gh$ and $h=Vo*t - \frac{g*t^{2} }{2}$ , First we need to find the height to time iqual to 3.04 s using the formula: $h=Vo*t - \frac{g*t^{2} }{2}$ and remember that golf ball was released from the rest (Vo= 0 (m/s)) so $h= (0 (m/s))*(3.04 (s)) - \frac{9.8 (m/s^2)*(3.04 (s))^{2} }{2}$ , we get: h = -45.28 (m) with the height that we have got, now the velocity of the ball is calculate using $Vf^{2} = Vo^{2} - 2gh$ solving for Vf, we get: $Vf = \sqrt{Vo^{2}-2*g*h }$ replacing the values given $Vf = \sqrt{(0 m/s)^{2}-2*(9.8 m/s^2)*(-45.28 m) }$ , so we get: Vf = 29.79 (m/s).

A car battery with a 12 V emf and an internal resistance of 0.11 Ω is being charged with a current of 56 A. What are (a) the pot

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Part a)

V = 18.16 V

Part b)

$P_r = 345 Watt$

Part c)

P = 672 Watt

Part d)

V = 5.84 V

Part e)

$P_r = 345 Watt$

Explanation:

Part a)

When battery is in charging mode

then the potential difference at the terminal of the cell is more than its EMF and it is given as

$\Delta V = E + i r$

here we have

$E = 12 V$

$i = 56 A$

$r = 0.11$

now we have

$\Delta V = 12 + (0.11)(56) = 18.16 V$

Part b)

Rate of energy dissipation inside the battery is the energy across internal resistance

so it is given as

$P_r = i^2 r$

$P_r = 56^2 (0.11)$

$P_r = 345 W$

Part c)

Rate of energy conversion into EMF is given as

$P_{emf} = i E$

$P_{emf} = (56)(12)$

$P_{emf} = 672 Watt$

Now battery is giving current to other circuit so now it is discharging

now we have

Part d)

$V = E - i r$

$V = 12 - (56)(0.11)$

$V = 12 - 6.16 = 5.84 V$

Part e)

now the rate of energy dissipation is given as

$P_r = i^2 r$

$P_r = 56^2 (0.11)$

$P_r = 345 W$

What should be angle between force and displacement to get the maximum work

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer: The angle between force and displacement should be θ = 90° for minimum work. The angle between force and displacement should be θ = 0° for maximum work.
