You are working as a summer intern for the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and are assigned to some initial work

on water resources project. The department will be overseeing the construction of a dam to create a large fresh water lake that will be approximately 17 meters deep. A horizontal pipe 1.2 meters long and 3 cm in diameter will pass through the dam at a depth of 7 meters to allow for release of the water in emergencies and for sampling. In normal situations, a plug will secure the pipe opening. 1)What will be the total force on the left side of the plug

7 0

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

1) Pressure acting on the plug = Patm + P

Pressure = Patm + rho*g*h (Here h = D2)

Pressure = 101325 + 1000*9.8*7

Pressure = 169925 Pa

so, Force = PA

Force = 169925*pi*0.0152

Force = 120.1 N

A coin is dropped off of a building landing on its side. It hits with a pressure of 400/2 It hits with a force of 0.1 Calculate
Arte-miy333 [17]

Complete Question:

A coin is dropped off of a building landing on its side. It hits with a pressure of 400 N/m². It hits with a force of 0.1N. Calculate the area of the coin?

Answer:

Area = 0.00025 m²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Pressure = 400N/m²

Force = 0.1N

To find the area of the coin;

Pressure = Force/area

Area = Force/pressure

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Area = 0.1/400

Area = 0.00025 m²

Water waves in a small tank are 6.6 m long. They travel at a speed of 2.9 m/s. What is the frequency of the water
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

.439 Hz

Explanation:

Wavelength = 6.6 m

speed = 2.9 m/s

  2.9 = 6.6 f

f = 2.9/6.6 =  .439 Hz

A particularly beautiful note reaching your ear from a rare Stradivarius violin has a wavelength of 39.1 cm. The room is slightl
USPshnik [31]

Given Information:  

Wavelength =  λ = 39.1 cm = 0.391 m

speed of sound = v = 344 m/s

linear density = μ = 0.660 g/m = 0.00066 kg/m

tension = T = 160 N

Required Information:

Length of the vibrating string = L = ?

Answer:

Length of the vibrating string = 0.28 m

Explanation:

The frequency of beautiful note is

f = v/λ

f = 344/0.391

f = 879.79 Hz

As we know, the speed of the wave is

v = √T/μ

v = √160/0.00066

v = 492.36 m/s

The wavelength of the string is

λ = v/f

λ = 492.36/879.79

λ = 0.5596 m

and finally the length of the vibrating string is

λ = 2L

L = λ/2

L = 0.5596/2

L = 0.28 m

Therefore, the vibrating section of the violin string is 0.28 m long.
