Define Hydrostatic Equilibrium

Physics
1 answer:
Radda [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

well, in my view,

In fluid mechanics, hydrostatic equilibrium or hydrostatic balance (also known as hydrostasy) is the condition of a fluid or plastic solid at rest. This occurs when external forces such as gravity are balanced by a pressure-gradient force.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

acceleration = 2.4525‬ m/s²

Explanation:

Data: Let m1 = 3.0 Kg, m2 = 5.0 Kg, g = 9.81 m/s²

Tension in the rope = T

Sol: m2 > m1

i) for downward motion of m2:

m2 a = m2 g - T

5 a = 5 × 9.81 m/s² - T  

⇒ T = 49.05‬ m/s² - 5 a     Eqn (a)‬

ii) for upward motion of m1

m a = T - m1 g

3 a = T - 3 × 9.8 m/s²

⇒ T =  3 a + 29.43‬ m/s²   Eqn (b)

Equating Eqn (a) and(b)

49.05‬ m/s² - 5 a = T =  3 a + 29.43‬ m/s²

49.05‬ m/s² - 29.43‬ m/s² = 3 a + 5 a

19.62 m/s² = 8 a

⇒ a = 2.4525‬ m/s²

Gina applied 1,780 J of work to move a sofa 3.8 meters. What amount of force did she exert?
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

468.42N

Explanation:

Here,

Work done(W)=1780J

Displacement(s)=3.8m

As we have,

Work=Force×displacement

Now,

\hookrightarrow 1780J=F\times3.8m\\\\\hookrightarrow \frac{1780J}{3.8m} =F\\\\\hookrightarrow F=468.42N

Water flows over a section of Niagara Falls at a rate of 2.2 × 106 kg/s and falls 65 m. What is the power wasted by the waterfal
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

P = 1401.4 x 10⁶ W

Explanation:

Given that

Water flow rate m = 2.2 x 10⁶ kg/s

Height ,h= 65 m

Acceleration due to gravity ,g= 9.8 m/s²

The power P is given as

P= m g h

P=Power

m=Water flow rate

h=height

Now by putting the values in the above equation

P = 2.2 x 10⁶ x 9.8 x 65 W

P = 1401.4 x 10⁶ W

Therefore the power wasted will be 1401.4 x 10⁶ W.
