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
Physics

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 yet-to-be-built spacecraft starts from Earth moving at constant speed to the yet-tobe-discovered planet Retah, which is 20 lig
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The  time elapsed at the spacecraft’s frame is less that the time elapsed at earth's  frame

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance between earth and Retah is  d = 20 \ light \ hours =  20 * 3600 *  c =  72000c \ m

Here c is the peed of light with value c =  3.0*10^8 m/s

The time taken to reach Retah from earth is  t =  25 \ hours  =  25 * 3600 =90000 \ sec

The velocity of the spacecraft is mathematically evaluated  as

     v_s =  \frac{d }{t}

substituting values

   v_s =  \frac{72000 * 3.0*10^{8} }{90000}

    v_s =  2.40*10^{8} \ m/s

The time elapsed in the spacecraft’s frame is mathematically evaluated as

      T  =  t *  \sqrt{ 1 -  \frac{v^2}{c^2} }

substituting value

       T  =  90000 *  \sqrt{ 1 -  \frac{[2.4*10^{8}]^2}{[3.0*10^{8}]^2} }

        T = 54000 \ s

=>    T  = 15 \ hours

So  The  time elapsed at the spacecraft’s frame is less that the time elapsed at earth's  frame

What is the displacement of the car between t=1s and t=4s
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Option C. 30 m

Explanation:

From the graph given in the question above,

At t = 1 s,

The displacement of the car is 10 m

At t = 4 s

The displacement of the car is 40 m

Thus, we can simply calculate the displacement of the car between t = 1 and t = 4 by calculating the difference in the displacement at the various time. This is illustrated below:

Displacement at t = 1 s (d1) = 10 m

Displacement at t= 4 s (d2) = 40

Displacement between t = 1 and t = 4 (ΔD) =?

ΔD = d2 – d1

ΔD = 40 – 10

ΔD = 30 m.

Therefore, the displacement of the car between t = 1 and t = 4 is 30 m.

If a drop is to be deflected a distance d = 0.350 mm by the time it reaches the end of the deflection plate, what magnitude of c
Sloan [31]

Answer:

q = 4.87 X 10^ -14 C

Explanation:

As d=0.350 mm

The ink drop will be accelerated by the electric field between the plates:

a = F/m

d = a(D0 / v)^2 / 2 ...... 1

a = qE/m ............... 2

Substituting 2  into 1:

d = (qE/m)(D0 / v)^2 / 2

q = 2mdv^2 / [E(D0)^2]

q = 2(1.00e-11 kg)(3.50e-4 m)(15.0 m/s)^2 / [(7.70e4 N/C)(2.05e-2 m)^2]

q = 4.87e-14 C

If the mass of an egg is 0.57kg and it is dropped, calculated the force using newton's 2nd law
nlexa [21]

F = ma

Acceleration in this case is acceleration due to gravity so

a = 9.8 m/s^2

and mass = 0.57kg

So..

F = (0.57)(9.8)

F = 5.586 or 5.56 N
