The pump in a water tower raises water with a density of rhow = 1.00 kg/liter from a filtered pool at the base of the tower up h

T = 21 m to the top of the tower. The water begins at rest in the pool and comes to rest at the top of the tower. The pump is 100% efficient in lifting the water, and it raises a volume of Vw = 6.2 liters of water up the tower every second. The water tower sits on a mound that is Te = 75 m above sea level. Let gravitational potential energy be zero at ground level.
Calculate the power. Pp in Watts, of the pump

3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of the water being lifted per second

m = volume x density

= 6.2 x 1 = 6.2 kg

height by which water being lifted

h = 75 - 21

= 54 m

increase in potential energy of water per second

mgh

6.2 x 9.8 x 54

= 3281.04 J /s

= 3281.04 W.

Two neutral metal spheres on wood stands are touching. A negatively charged rod is held directly above the top of the left spher
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The right sphere is negatively charged, the left sphere is charged positively.

Explanation:

When a negatively charged rod is held above the top of left sphere, the rod will attract positive charges and repel negative charges. As the sphere are initially touching each other so positive charges from the both spheres will moves toward the rod. When we separate the spheres positive charges from right sphere have already moved toward the rod i.e. left sphere, creating a deficiency of positive charges in the right sphere and excessiveness of positive charges in left sphere , hence the right sphere will remain negatively charged and left sphere will remain positively charged.

A student made the claim that a 4 gram paintball fired from a paintball gun at 90 m/s could have about the same kinetic energy a
vovikov84 [41]

This question involves the concept of kinetic energy.

The student's claim is "right".

<h3>Kinetic Energy</h3>

The energy possessed by a body, by the virtue of its motion is called kinetic energy. Mathematically it is given by the following formula:

K.E =\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where,

  • K.E = Kinetic energy
  • m = mass
  • v = velocity

Therefore,

For the paintball:

K.E = \frac{1}{2}(4\ g)(90\ m/s)^2

K.E = 16200 J

For the pellet:

K.E = \frac{1}{2}(1\ g)(180\ m/s)^2

K.E = 16200 J

Hence, both paintball and pellet will have same kinetic energy. The student is right.

What happens to the work done when a force is doubled and the distance moved remain the same?​
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Work done gets doubled.

Explanation:

The work done by a force is given by :

W = Fd

Where

F is force and d is distance move

If the force is doubled and the distance moved remain the same, it would mean that the work done becomes double of the initial work done.

A 250. mL sample of gas at 1.00 atm and 20.0°C has the temperature increased to 40.0°C and the volume increased to 500. mL. What
ladessa [460]

Answer:

New pressure is 0.534 atm

Explanation:

Given:

Initial volume of the gas, V₁ = 250 mL

Initial pressure of the gas, P₁ = 1.00 atm

Initial temperature of the gas, T₁ = 20° C = 293 K

Final volume of the gas, V₂ = 500 mL

Final pressure of the gas = P₂

Final temperature of the gas, T₁ = 40° C = 313 K

now,

we know for a gas

PV = nRT

where,

n is the moles

R is the ideal gas constant

also, for a constant gas

we have

(P₁V₁/T₁) = (P₂V₂/T₂)

on substituting the values in the above equation, we get

(1.00 × 250)/293 = (P₂ × 500)/313

or

P₂ = 0.534 atm

Hence, the <u>new pressure is 0.534 atm</u>
