-- The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².
So if there's no air resistance, the speed of a falling object
always increases by 9.8 m/s for every second it falls.
Speed = (original speed) + (gravity x falling time)
-- If it has no vertical speed when it started, then at the end
of 3 seconds, its speed is
= (0) + (9.8 m/s² x 3 sec)
Velocity = 29.4 m/s downward .
Underline the words then eliminate the ones that arent part of the problem!
Answer
given,
gauge pressure = 1.94 x 10⁵ Pa
Pressure due to 4.90 m column of water
= ρ g h
= (4.90) x (1000) x (9.8) Pa
= 48020 Pa
Gauge pressure of second floor faucet
= 1.94 x 10⁵Pa - 48020 Pa
P_g= 145980 Pa
( b )
Let h = height of faucet from which no water can flow even if open
P = ρ g h
1.94 x 10⁵ = h x(1000) x (9.8)
h = 19.79 m
