Water flows through a horizontal pipe of varying cross-section. In the first section, the cross-sectional area is 10 cm2 and flo
Stels [109]

Answer:

(a) the flow speed of the second section is 11 m/s

(b) the pressure of the second section is 6.33 x 10⁴ Pa

Explanation:

Given;

flow rate in the first section, Q₁ = 2750 cm³/sec

area of the first cross section, A₁ = 10 cm²

pressure in the first cross section, P₁ = 1.2 x 10⁵ Pa

area of the second section, A₂ = 2.5 cm²

(a) the flow speed of the second section (V₂)

Apply continuity equation;

Q₁ = Q₂

Q₁ = A₂V₂

V₂ = Q₁ / A₂

V₂ = (2750) / (2.5)

V₂ = 1100 cm/s = 11 m/s

(b) the pressure of the second section (P₂)

Apply Bernoulli's equation;

P₁ + ¹/₂ρV₁² = P₂ + ¹/₂ρV₂²

where;

ρ is density of water = 1000 kg/m³

V₁ is the speed of water in the first section;

Q₁ = A₁V₁

V₁ = Q₁ / A₁

V₁ = (2750) / (10)

V₁ = 275 cm/s = 2.75 m/s

P₂ = P₁ + ¹/₂ρV₁² - ¹/₂ρV₂²

P₂ = P₁ + ¹/₂ρ(V₁² - V₂²)

P₂ = 1.2 x 10⁵ Pa + ¹/₂ x 1000 (2.75² - 11²)

P₂ = 1.2 x 10⁵ Pa + 500(-113.438)

P₂ = 1.2 x 10⁵ Pa - 0.567  x 10⁵ Pa

P₂ = 0.633 x 10⁵ Pa

P₂ = 6.33 x 10⁴ Pa

assume the suns total energy output is 4.0 * 10^26 watts, and 1 watt is 1 joule/second. assume 4.3 * 10^-12 J is released from e
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

9.3\cdot 10^{37}

Explanation:

Power is defined as the energy produced (E) per unit of time (t):

P= \frac{E}{t}

This means that the energy produced in the Sun each second (1 s), given the power P=4.0\cdot 10^{26}W, is

E=Pt=(4.0\cdot 10^{26}W)(1s )=4.0\cdot 10^{26} J

Each p-p chain reaction produces an amount of energy of

E_1 = 4.3\cdot 10^{-12} J

in order to get the total number of p-p chain reactions per second, we need to divide the total energy produced per second by the energy produced by each reaction:

n=\frac{E}{E_1}=\frac{4.0\cdot 10^{26} J}{4.3\cdot 10^{-12} J}=9.3\cdot 10^{37}

A vertical block-spring system on earth has a period of 6.0 s. What is the period of this same system on the moon where the acce
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

D) 15s

Explanation:

let Te be the period of the block-spring system on earth and Tm be the period of the same system on the moon.let g1 be the gravitational acceleration on earth and g2 be the gravitational acceleration on the moon.

the period of a pendulum is given by:

T = 2π√(L/g)

so on earth:

Te = 2π√(L/g1)

     =  6s

on the moon;

Tm = 2π√(L/g2)

since g2 = 1/6 g1 then:

Tm = 2π√(L/(1/6×g1))

      = √(6)×2π√(L/(g1))

and 2π√(L/(g1)) = Te = 6s

Tm = (√(6))×6 = 14.7s ≈ 15s

Therefore, the period of the block-spring system on the moon is 15s.
