Answer:

1190 N

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the product of mass and velocity. The unit of force is Newton(N).

From the question,

F = ma................. Equation 1

Where F = average force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

But,

a = (v-u)/t................ Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

F = m(v-u)/t.............. Equation 3

Given: m = 70 kg, v = 1.7 m/s, u = 0 m/s (from rest), t = 0.1 s.

Substitute into equation 3

F = 70(1.7-0)/0.1

F = 1190 N.

A fluid in an aquifer is 23.6 m above a reference datum, the fluid pressure (in gage pressure) is 4390 n/m2 and the flow velocit
Phoenix [80]

As per Bernuolli's Theorem total energy per unit mass is given as

\frac{P}{\rho} + \frac{1}{2}v^2 + gH = E

now from above equation

P = 4390 N/m^2

\rho = 0.999 * 10^3

v = 7.22 * 10^{-4} m/s

H = 23.6 m

now by above equation

\frac{4390}{0.999*10^3} + \frac{1}{2}*(7.22*10^{-4})^2 + 9.8*23.6 = E

E = 235.7 J/kg

Part B)

Now energy per unit weight

U = \frac{E}{g}

U = \frac{235.7}{9.8}

U = 24 m
