convert the volume of water from acre - ft to ft³

v = (20.00acre ft)43,560ft³/1 arc ft

  = 8,71,200

   = 8.71 x 10⁶ ft³

  here, v is the volume of water

Answer:

871,200 acre-ft of water

Explanation:

Volume= 1 acre-ft=43,560ft^2

Volume= 20acre-ft=?

Volume= 20 acre-ft × 43560ft^2

Volume = 817,200 acre-ft^3

A 650-kg roller coaster starts from rest at the top of a 80 m hill.
Flura [38]

Answer:

or a roller coaster loop, if it were perfectly circular, we would have a minimum speed of vmin=√gR at the top of the loop where g=9.8m/s2 and R is the radius of the 'circle'. However, most roller coaster loops are actually not circular but more elliptical.

A 4.0-kg object is supported by an aluminum wire of length 2.0 m and diameter 2.0 mm. How much will the wire stretch?
forsale [732]

Answer:

The extension of the wire is 0.362 mm.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object, m = 4.0 kg

length of the aluminum wire, L = 2.0 m

diameter of the wire, d = 2.0 mm

radius of the wire, r = d/2 = 1.0 mm = 0.001 m

The area of the wire is given by;

A = πr²

A = π(0.001)² = 3.142 x 10⁻⁶ m²

The downward force of the object on the wire is given by;

F = mg

F = 4 x 9.8 = 39.2 N

The Young's modulus of aluminum is given by;

Y = \frac{stress}{strain}\\\\Y = \frac{F/A}{e/L}\\\\Y = \frac{FL}{Ae} \\\\e = \frac{FL}{AY}

Where;

Young's modulus of elasticity of aluminum = 69 x 10⁹ N/m²

e = \frac{FL}{AY} \\\\e = \frac{(39.2)(2)}{(3.142*10^{-6})(69*10^9)} \\\\e = 0.000362 \ m\\\\e = 0.362 \ mm

Therefore, the extension of the wire is 0.362 mm.

A 44-cm-diameter water tank is filled with 35 cm of water. A 3.0-mm-diameter spigot at the very bottom of the tank is opened and
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The frequency f = 521.59 Hz

The rate at which the frequency is changing = 186.9 Hz/s

Explanation:

Given that :

Diameter of the tank = 44 cm

Radius of the tank = \frac{d}{2} =\frac{44}{2} = 22 cm

Diameter of the spigot = 3.0 mm

Radius of the spigot = \frac{d}{2} =\frac{3.0}{2} = 1.5 mm

Diameter of the cylinder = 2.0 cm

Radius of the cylinder = \frac{d}{2} = \frac{2.0}{2} = 1.0 cm

Height of the cylinder = 40 cm = 0.40 m

The height of the water in the tank from the spigot = 35 cm = 0.35 m

Velocity at the top of the tank = 0 m/s

From the question given, we need to consider that  the question talks about movement of fluid through an open-closed pipe; as such it obeys Bernoulli's Equation and the constant discharge condition.

The expression for Bernoulli's Equation is as follows:

P_1+\frac{1}{2}pv_1^2+pgy_1=P_2+\frac{1}{2}pv^2_2+pgy_2

pgy_1=\frac{1}{2}pv^2_2 +pgy_2

v_2=\sqrt{2g(y_1-y_2)}

where;

P₁ and P₂ = initial and final pressure.

v₁ and v₂ = initial and final fluid velocity

y₁ and y₂ = initial and final height

p = density

g = acceleration due to gravity

So, from our given parameters; let's replace

v₁ = 0 m/s ; y₁ = 0.35 m ; y₂ = 0 m ; g = 9.8 m/s²

∴ we have:

v₂ = \sqrt{2*9.8*(0.35-0)}

v₂ = \sqrt {6.86}

v₂ = 2.61916

v₂ ≅ 2.62 m/s

Similarly, using the expression of the continuity for water flowing through the spigot into the cylinder; we have:

v₂A₂ = v₃A₃

v₂r₂² = v₃r₃²

where;

v₂r₂ = velocity of the fluid and radius at the spigot

v₃r₃ = velocity of the fluid and radius at the cylinder

v_3 = \frac{v_2r_2^2}{v_3^2}

where;

v₂ = 2.62 m/s

r₂ = 1.5 mm

r₃ = 1.0 cm

we have;

v₃ = (2.62  m/s)* (\frac{1.5mm^2}{1.0mm^2} )

v₃ = 0.0589 m/s

∴ velocity  of the fluid in the cylinder =  0.0589 m/s

So, in an open-closed system we are dealing with; the frequency can be calculated by using the expression;

f=\frac{v_s}{4(h-v_3t)}

where;

v_s = velocity of sound

h = height of the fluid

v₃ = velocity  of the fluid in the cylinder

f=\frac{343}{4(0.40-(0.0589)(0.4)}

f= \frac{343}{0.6576}

f = 521.59 Hz

∴ The frequency f = 521.59 Hz

b)

What are the rate at which the frequency is changing (Hz/s) when the cylinder has been filling for 4.0 s?

The rate at which the frequency is changing is related to the function of time (t) and as such:

\frac{df}{dt}= \frac{d}{dt}(\frac{v_s}{4}(h-v_3t)^{-1})

\frac{df}{dt}= -\frac{v_s}{4}(h-v_3t)^2(-v_3)

\frac{df}{dt}= \frac{v_sv_3}{4(h-v_3t)^2}

where;

v_s (velocity of sound) = 343 m/s

v₃ (velocity  of the fluid in the cylinder) = 0.0589 m/s

h (height of the cylinder) = 0.40 m

t (time) = 4.0 s

Substituting our values; we have ;

\frac{df}{dt}= \frac{343*0.0589}{4(0.4-(0.0589*4.0))^2}

= 186.873

≅ 186.9 Hz/s

∴ The rate at which the frequency is changing = 186.9 Hz/s  when the cylinder has been filling for 4.0 s.
