Answer:

t = 0.196 s

Explanation:

The speed of a pulse is determined by the characteristics of the medium, its density and its resistance to stress, as long as these remain the speed will be constant for which we can use the kinetic expressions of the uniform movement

          v = x / t

          t = x / v

calculate

          t = 2/102

          t = 0.196 s

4. Water is flowing at 12m/s in a horizontal pipe under a pressure of 600kpa
shusha [124]

Answer:

a. 192 m/s

b. -17,760 kPa

Explanation:

First let's write the flow rate of the liquid, using the following equation:

Q = A*v

Where Q is the flow rate, A is the cross section area of the pipe (A = pi * radius^2) and v is the speed of the liquid. The flow rate in both parts of the pipe (larger radius and smaller radius) needs to be the same, so we have:

a.

A1*v1 = A2*v2

pi * 0.02^2 * 12 = pi * 0.005^2 * v2

v2 = 0.02^2 * 12 / 0.005^2

v2 = 192 m/s

b.

To find the pressure of the other side, we need to use the Bernoulli equation: (600 kPa = 600000 N/m2)

P1 + d1*v1^2/2 = P2 + d1*v2^2/2

Where d1 is the density of the liquid (for water, we have d1 = 1000 kg/m3)

600000 + 1000*12^2/2 = P2 + 1000*192^2/2

P2 = 600000 + 72000 - 1000*192^2/2

P2 = -17760000 N/m2 = -17,760 kPa

The speed in the smaller part of the pipe is too high, the negative pressure in the second part means that the inicial pressure is not enough to maintain this output speed.

find the gravitational force this shell exerts on a 1.60 kg point mass placed at the distance 5.01 m from the center of the shel
RideAnS [48]

The gravitational force of the shell exerts is 4.25m x 10¯¹² N.

We need to know about gravitational force to solve this problem. The gravitational force is the force caused by two masses of objects. The magnitude of gravitational force can be determined as

F = G.m1.m2 / R²

where F is the gravitational force, G is the gravitational constant (6.674 × 10¯¹¹ Nm²/kg²), m1 and m2 are the mass of the object and R is the radius.

From the question above, we know that

m1 = 1.6 kg

m2 = m

R = 5.01 m

By substituting the following parameters, we get

F = G.m1.m2 / R²

F = 6.674 × 10¯¹¹  . 1.6 . m / 5.01²

F = 4.25m x 10¯¹² N

where m is the mass of the shell

I pull a wagon with a 30 kg child in it with a FORCE of 2000 N. The handle makes a 60 degree angle with the horizon. If I pull t
umka21 [38]

Answer:

1200000 J

Explanation:

Applying,

W = Fdcos∅....................... Equation 1

Where W = Workdone, F = Force applied to pull the wagon, d = distance, ∅ = angle with the horizontal.

From the question,

Given: F = 2000 N, d = 0.75 miles = (0.75×1600) = 1200 m, ∅ = 60°

Substitute these values into equation 1

W = 2000×1200×cos60°

W = 2000×1200×0.5

W = 1200000 J

Hence the work done in pulling the wagon is 1200000 J
