Question is from B to C

Answer: (b) 1.5m/s

x1=3m, x2=9m
t1=1s, t2=5s
Displacement, ∆x=(9-3)m=6m
Time elapsed, ∆t=(5-1)s=4s

So average velocity v =∆x/∆t=6/4=1.5m/s

A radar antenna is tracking a satellite orbiting the earth. At a certain time, the radar screen shows the satellite to be 118 km

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

x component 60.85 m

y component 101.031 m

Explanation:

We have given distance r = 118 km

Angle which makes from ground = 58.9°

(a) X component of distance is given by $r_x=rcos\Theta =118\times cos58.9=118\times 0.5165=118=60.85m$

(b) Y component of distance is given by $r_Y=rcos\Theta =118\times sin58.9=118\times 0.8562=101.0316m$

These are the x and y component of position vector

Water (density = 1x10^3 kg/m^3) flows at 15.5 m/s through a pipe with radius 0.040 m. The pipe goes up to the second floor of th

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The speed of the water flow in the pipe on the second floor is approximately 13.1 meters per second.

Explanation:

By assuming that fluid is incompressible and there are no heat and work interaction through the line of current corresponding to the pipe, we can calculate the speed of the water floor in the pipe on the second floor by Bernoulli's Principle, whose model is:

$P_{1} + \frac{\rho\cdot v_{1}^{2}}{2}+\rho\cdot g\cdot z_{1} = P_{2} + \frac{\rho\cdot v_{2}^{2}}{2}+\rho\cdot g\cdot z_{2}$ (1)

Where:

$P_{1}$ , $P_{2}$ - Pressures of the water on the first and second floors, measured in pascals.

$\rho$ - Density of water, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

$v_{1}$ , $v_{2}$ - Speed of the water on the first and second floors, measured in meters per second.

$z_{1}$ , $z_{2}$ - Heights of the water on the first and second floors, measured in meters.

Now we clear the final speed of the water flow:

$\frac{\rho\cdot v_{2}^{2}}{2} = P_{1}-P_{2}+\rho \cdot \left[\frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2}+g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2}) \right]$

$\rho\cdot v_{2}^{2} = 2\cdot (P_{1}-P_{2})+\rho\cdot [v_{1}^{2}+2\cdot g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2})]$

$v_{2}^{2}= \frac{2\cdot (P_{1}-P_{2})}{\rho}+v_{1}^{2}+2\cdot g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2})$

$v_{2} = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (P_{1}-P_{2})}{\rho}+v_{1}^{2}+2\cdot g\cdot (z_{1}-z_{2}) }$ (2)

If we know that $P_{1}-P_{2} = 0\,Pa$ , $\rho=1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}$ , $v_{1} = 15.5\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $z_{1}-z_{2} = -3.5\,m$ , then the speed of the water flow in the pipe on the second floor is:

$v_{2}=\sqrt{\left(15.5\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+2\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (-3.5\,m)}$

$v_{2} \approx 13.100\,\frac{m}{s}$

The speed of the water flow in the pipe on the second floor is approximately 13.1 meters per second.
