The amount of work done by a certain body is the product of the power given and the time. Mathematically,
Work = Power x time
Substituting the known values,
Work = (150 W) x (10 s)
= 1500 N.m
= 1500 J

Measurements made on an operating centrifugal pump indicate that for a flow rate of 240 gpm, 6 HP are being consumed. The operat

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

62.1 ft

Explanation:

We know that $1 gpm= 0.0022 ft^{3}/s$ hence 240 gpm will be

$240*0.0022=0.528 ft^{3}/s$

From the formula of obtaining efficiency

$\eta=\frac {\gamma Q h_a}{500W_{in}}$ and making $h_a$ the subject we have

$h_a=\frac {\eta*550*W_{in}}{\gamma Q}$ where Q is flow rate, $\gamma$ is specific weight of water, $h_a$ is actual head rise and $W_{in}$ is the power input to the compressor

Substituting 0.62 for $\eta$ , 6hp for $W_{in}$ , $62.4 lb/ft^{3}$ for $\gamma$ and $0.528 ft^{3}/s$ for Q then

$h_a=\frac {0.62*550*6}{62.4*0.528}=\frac {2046}{32.9472}=62.09936\approx 62.1 ft$

Therefore, actual head rise of the water being pumped is 62.1 ft

Falling raindrops frequently develop electric charges. Does this create noticeable forces between the droplets? Suppose two 1.8

Tema [17]

Answer:

The value of developed electric force is $3.516\times 10^{- 7} N$

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the droplet = 1.8 mg = $1.8\times 10^{- 6} kg$

Charge on droplet, Q = $25 pC = 25\times 10^{- 12} C$

Distance between the 2 droplets, D = 0.40 cm = 0.004 m

Now, the Electrostatic force given by Coulomb:

$F_{E} = \frac{1}{4\pi epsilon_{o}}.\frac{Q^{2}}{D^{2}}$

$\frac{1}{4\pi epsilon_{o}} = 9\times 10^{9} m/F$

$F_{E} = (9\times 10^{9}).\frac{(25\times 10^{- 12})^{2}}{0.004^{2}}$

$F_{E} = 3.516\times 10^{- 7} N$

The magnitude of force is too low to be noticed.

The graph shows the amplitude of a passing wave over time in seconds (s).

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Option B. 0.3 Hz

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Period (T) = 3 s

Frequency (f) =?

Frequency is related to the period according to the following equation:

Frequency (f) = 1 / period (T)

f = 1/T

With the above formula, we can obtain the frequency wave as illustrated below:

Period (T) = 3 s

Frequency (f) =?

f = 1/T

f = 1/3

f = 0.3 Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 0.3 Hz
