Answer: option d.

Explanation:

In this situation, we can suppose that the football player has a velocity of 2m/s in the positive x-axis, and the ball has a velocity of -5m/s in the x-axis.

If we step in the point of view of the football player, all the previous x-axis now moves with the same velocity that the player had, but in the other direction, so all the axis now moves with a velocity of -2m/s. And the ball that also is in the axis also gets this "boost" in velocity.

So now the velocity of the ball is -5m/s -2m/s = -7m/s where the minus sign is because of the situation that I crafted.

So the correct option is the option D

A horizontal pipe 18.0 cm in diameter has a smooth reduction to a pipe 9.00 cm in diameter. If the pressure of the water in the
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The rate of flow of water is 71.28 kg/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Diameter, d = 18.0 cm

Diameter, d' = 9.0 cm

Pressure in larger pipe, P = 9.40\times 10^{4}\ Pa

Pressure in the smaller pipe, P' = 2.80\times 10^{4}\ Pa

Now,

To calculate the rate of flow of water:

We know that:

Av = A'v'

where

A = Cross sectional area of larger pipe

A' = Cross sectional area of larger pipe

v = velocity of water in larger pipe

v' = velocity of water in larger pipe

Thus

\pi \frac{d^{2}}{4}v = \pi \frac{d'^{2}}{4}v'

18^{2}v = 9^v'

v' = 4v

Now,

By using Bernoulli's eqn:

P + \frac{1}{2}\rho v^{2} + \rho gh = P' + \frac{1}{2}\rho v'^{2} + \rho gh'

where

h = h'

\rho = 10^{3}\ kg/m^{3}

9.40\times 10^{4} + \frac{1}{2}\rho v^{2} = 2.80\times 10^{4} + \frac{1}{2}\rho (4v)^{2}

6.6\times 10^{4}  = \frac{1}{2}\rho 15v^{2}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 6.6\times 10^{4}}{15\times 10^{3}}} = 8.8\ m/s

Now, the rate of flow is given by:

\frac{dm}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}\rho Al = \rho Av

\frac{dm}{dt} = 10^{3}\times \pi (\frac{18}{2}\times 10^{- 2})^{2}\times 8.8 = 71.28\ kg/s
