The height is zero.
That means whatever place is your reference for height measurement,
the object is lying right there at that height.

Milk with a density of 1020 kg/m3 is transported on a level road in a 9-m-long, 3-m-diameter cylindrical tanker. The tanker is c

jeka57 [31]

Solution :

Given data is :

Density of the milk in the tank, $\rho = 1020 \ kg/m^3$

Length of the tank, x = 9 m

Height of the tank, z = 3 m

Acceleration of the tank, $a_x = 2.5 \ m/s^2$

Therefore, the pressure difference between the two points is given by :

$P_2-P_1 = -\rho a_x x - \rho(g+a)z$

Since the tank is completely filled with milk, the vertical acceleration is $a_z = 0$

$P_2-P_1 = -\rho a_x x- \rho g z$

Therefore substituting, we get

$P_2-P_1=-(1020 \times 2.5 \times 7) - (1020 \times 9.81 \times 3)$

$=-17850 - 30018.6$

$=-47868.6 \ Pa$

$=-47.868 \ kPa$

Therefore the maximum pressure difference in the tank is Δp = 47.87 kPa and is located at the bottom of the tank.

10. Almost three-quarters of household energy use is due to the following:

Arturiano [62]

Answer: Energy consumption and sustainability is important so that it remain available for future generation.

Explanation:

1. The home furnaces are likely to require fuel like coal, which will directly emit carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide gases. These should be replaced with the electrical furnaces. The old or more power consuming air conditioners should be replaced with new ones.

2. The water heaters should be tankless so their capacity to heat more water could be possible. The water heaters should be electricity saving.

3. Washer and dryers should be water savy and electricity savy. A front-loading washing machine is useful energy saver.

4. The LED lights are more electricity saving than conventional bulbs. Halogen lights are also electricity saving.

A 46.8-g golf ball is driven from the tee with an initial speed of 58.8 m/s and rises to a height of 24.7 m. (a) Neglect air res

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

a) the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point is 69.58 J

b) its speed when it is 8.11 m below its highest point is 55.97 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

mass of golf ball m = 46.8 g = 0.0468 kg

initial speed of the ball v₁ = 58.8 m/s

height h = 24.7 m

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point = ?

from the conservation of energy;

Kinetic energy at the highest point will be;

K.Ei + P.Ei = KEf + PEf

now the Initial potential energy of the ball P.Ei = 0 J

1/2mv² + 0 J = KEf + mgh

K.Ef = 1/2mv² - mgh

we substitute

K.Ef = [1/2 × 0.0468 × (58.8 )²] - [0.0468 × 9.8 × 24.7]

K.Ef = 80.904 - 11.3284

K.Ef = 69.58 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point is 69.58 J

b) when the ball is 8.11 m below the highest point, speed = ?

so our raw height h' will be ( 24.7 m - 8.11 m) = 16.59 m

so our velocity will be v₂

also using the principle of energy conservation;

K.Ei + P.Ei = KEh + PEh

1/2mv² + 0 J = 1/2mv₂² + mgh'

1/2mv₂² = 1/2mv² - mgh'

multiply through by 2/m

v₂² = v² - 2gh'

v₂ = √( v² - 2gh' )

we substitute

v₂ = √( (58.8)² - 2×9.8×16.59 )

v₂ = √( 3457.44 - 325.164 )

v₂ = √( 3132.276 )

v₂ = 55.97 m/s

Therefore, its speed when it is 8.11 m below its highest point is 55.97 m/s

Hey!!

here is your answer >>>

We know that, acids and strong bases are good conductors of electricity!. And gold conducts electricity , while the best is silver and niext comes gold!. And H20 which is water contains less ions , so it is not a good conductors , it is a conductors but not a good conductor!. Salt in it's solid for cannot produce ions, hence, it cannot conduct electricity , but when this salt is mixed with water or when it is in it's molten state it can conduct electricity!. So now,the answer for the question is ,

B) III and IV only!.

Hope my answer helps!
