pascal is the unit of pressure

The units of pressure is called derived units because it is simply derived from base unit which is distance and a derived unit which is force, which is derived from acceleration, a derived unit as well, and mass, a base unit. As we all know, work is defined as the force x distance. Thus making work a derived unit.Jun 23, 2020

A visitor to a lighthouse wishes to determine the height of the tower. She ties a spool of thread to a small rock to make a simp

masha68 [24]

To solve this problem we must rely on the equations of the simple harmonic movement that define the period as a function of length and gravity as

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$

Where

l = Length

g = Gravity

Re-arrange to find L,

$L = g (\frac{T}{2\pi})^2$

Our values are given as

$g = 9.81m/s$

$T = 10.1s$

Replacing,

$L = g (\frac{T}{2\pi})^2$

$L = (9.81) (\frac{10.1}{2\pi})^2$

$L = 25.348m$

Therefore the height would be 25.348m

a particle of mass m sits at rest at x = 0. At time t = 0 a force given by F = Fe^(-t/T) is applied in the +x direction; F and T

wlad13 [49]

Explanation:

Given: $F=m\ddot{x}=Fe^{-\frac{t}{T}}$

Solving for $\ddot{x}$ :

$\ddot{x}=\frac{F}{m}e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m} } t}$

where:

$T=\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}$

Integrating to get $\dot{x}$ with initial conditions $\dot{x}(0)=0$ :

$\dot{x}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} t}$

Integrating to get x with initial conditions x(0) = 0:

$x=-1+\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} t+e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}t}$

When t=T:

$x=-1+\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}+e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}}=\frac{1}{e}$

$\dot{x}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}(1-\frac{1}{e})$

An adiabatic nozzle has an inlet area of 1 m^2 and an outlet area of 0.25 m^2. Water enters the nozzle at a rate of 5 m^3/s and

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

v=20m/S

p=-37.5kPa

Explanation:

Hello! This exercise should be resolved in the next two steps

1. Using the continuity equation that indicates that the flow entering the nozzle must be the same as the output, remember that the flow equation consists in multiplying the area by the speed

Q=VA

for he exitt

Q=flow=5m^3/s

A=area=0.25m^2

V=Speed

solving for V

$V=\frac{Q}{A} \\V=\frac{5}{0.25} =20m/s$

velocity at the exit=20m/s

for entry

$V=\frac{5}{1} =5m/s$

To find the pressure we use the Bernoulli equation that states that the flow energy is conserved.

$\frac{P1}{\alpha } +\frac{v1^2}{2g} =\frac{P2} {\alpha } +\frac{v2^2}{2g}$

where

P=presure

α=9.810KN/m^3 specific weight for water

V=speed

g=gravity

solving for P1

$(\frac{p1}{\alpha } +\frac{V1^2-V2^2}{2g})\alpha =p2\\(\frac{150}{9.81 } +\frac{5^2-20^2}{2(9.81)})9.81 =p2\\P2=-37.5kPa$

the pressure at exit is -37.5kPa

One difference between a hypothesis and a theory is that a hypothesis

artcher [175]

A hypothesis is a tentative statement which is made to try to explain a known phenomenon but whose truth value is still uncertain, whether it is true or no depends on further research. On the other hand, a theory is made up of hypothesis which have been proven to be true so far, a theory should be able to explain future phenomena successfully
