Physics

Answer:

31.6 m/s

Explanation:

Mass is conserved, so the mass flow at the outlet of the pump equals the mass flow at the nozzle.

m₁ = m₂

ρQ₁ = ρQ₂

Q₁ = Q₂

v₁A₁ = v₂A₂

v₁ πd₁²/4 = v₂ πd₂²/4

v₁ d₁² = v₂ d₂²

Now use Bernoulli equation:

P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρgh₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

Since h₁ = 0 and P₂ = 0:

P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² = ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

Writing v₁ in terms of v₂:

P₁ + ½ ρ (v₂ d₂²/d₁²)² = ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

P₁ + ½ ρ (d₂/d₁)⁴ v₂² = ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

P₁ − ρgh₂ = ½ ρ (1 − (d₂/d₁)⁴) v₂²

Plugging in values:

579,160 Pa − (1000 kg/m³)(9.8 m/s²)(15 m) = ½ (1000 kg/m³) (1 − (1.99 in / 3.28 in)⁴) v₂²

v₂ = 31.6 m/s

Plzz help mee <br>What do you notice about how we write out the symbols for the different elements?​
k0ka [10]

Many of the symbols are the first one or two letters of the element’s name in English. The first letter of a symbol is always written as a capital letter (uppercase) and the second letter as a small letter (lowercase).

For example

(i) hydrogen, H

(ii) aluminium, Al and not AL

(iii) cobalt, Co and not CO.

Symbols of some elements are formed from the first letter of the name and a letter, appearing later in the name.

Examples are: (i)chlorine, Cl, (ii) zinc, Zn etc.

Other symbols have been taken from the

names of elements in Latin, German or Greek.

For example, the symbol of iron is Fe from its Latin name ferrum, sodium is Na from natrium, potassium is K from kalium. Therefore, each element has a name and a unique chemical symbol.

How does solar energy produce electricity?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
By the use of "Solar cells" or "Solar panel", we can trap solar energy in silicon/germanium rods, then we can convert in into electricity too.

Hope this helps!

6. A 145-g baseball moving 30.5 m/s strikes a stationary 5.75-kg brick resting on small rollers so it moves without significant
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

momentum of baseball before collision

mass x velocity

= .145 x 30.5

= 4.4225 kg m /s

momentum of brick after collision

= 5.75 x 1.1

= 6.325 kg m/s

Applying conservation of momentum

4.4225 + 0 = .145 x v + 6.325 , v is velocity of baseball after collision.

v = - 13.12 m / s

b )

kinetic energy of baseball  before collision = 1/2 mv²

= .5 x .145 x 30.5²

= 67.44 J

Total kinetic energy before collision = 67.44 J

c )

kinetic energy of baseball after collision = 1/2 x .145 x 13.12²

= 12.48 J .

 kinetic energy of brick after collision

= .5 x 5.75 x 1.1²

= 3.48 J

Total kinetic energy after collision

= 15.96 J
