Answer:

(a) the flow speed of the second section is 11 m/s

(b) the pressure of the second section is 6.33 x 10⁴ Pa

Explanation:

Given;

flow rate in the first section, Q₁ = 2750 cm³/sec

area of the first cross section, A₁ = 10 cm²

pressure in the first cross section, P₁ = 1.2 x 10⁵ Pa

area of the second section, A₂ = 2.5 cm²

(a) the flow speed of the second section (V₂)

Apply continuity equation;

Q₁ = Q₂

Q₁ = A₂V₂

V₂ = Q₁ / A₂

V₂ = (2750) / (2.5)

V₂ = 1100 cm/s = 11 m/s

(b) the pressure of the second section (P₂)

Apply Bernoulli's equation;

P₁ + ¹/₂ρV₁² = P₂ + ¹/₂ρV₂²

where;

ρ is density of water = 1000 kg/m³

V₁ is the speed of water in the first section;

Q₁ = A₁V₁

V₁ = Q₁ / A₁

V₁ = (2750) / (10)

V₁ = 275 cm/s = 2.75 m/s

P₂ = P₁ + ¹/₂ρV₁² - ¹/₂ρV₂²

P₂ = P₁ + ¹/₂ρ(V₁² - V₂²)

P₂ = 1.2 x 10⁵ Pa + ¹/₂ x 1000 (2.75² - 11²)

P₂ = 1.2 x 10⁵ Pa + 500(-113.438)

P₂ = 1.2 x 10⁵ Pa - 0.567  x 10⁵ Pa

P₂ = 0.633 x 10⁵ Pa

P₂ = 6.33 x 10⁴ Pa

Southern state and local elections in 1876 differed from those in previous years in that
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Southern state and local elections in 1876 differed from those in previous years in that the election of 1876 was one of the closest races in American history. It tested the Constitution and resulted in a compromise that ended Reconstruction in America.

The election of 1876 between Rutherford B. Hayes and Democrat Samuel Tilden of New York was one of the most hostile, controversial campaigns in American history. The vote was 8-7 along party lines to award the disputed electoral college votes to Hayes, making him the winner.

Explanation:

The Compromise of 1876 is known for being the catalyst for the end of Reconstruction era, it was one of the most contentious and controversial presidential elections in American history.

Republican nominee Rutherford B. Hayes faced Democrat Samuel J. Tilden. After a controversial post-election process, He lost the popular vote to Democrat Samuel J. Tilden but he won an intensely disputed electoral college vote after a Congressional commission awarded him twenty contested electoral votes Hayes was declared the winner. The Hayes-Tilden Compromise is often seen as the final point that brought an end to Reconstruction, as it led to the removal of the US army from the South.

As Florida's Supreme Court had earlier declared a Democratic victory in the 1876 gubernatorial election, Democrats had been restored to power all across the South. The Compromise of 1876 effectively ended the Reconstruction era.

Southern Democrats' promised to protect civil and political rights of blacks as they were not kept, and to end of federal interference in southern affairs. This led to widespread disenfranchisement of blacks voters. Other factors that contributed to the end of Reconstruction were the Panic of 1873 and political corruption in the United States.

The Compromise of 1877 (the Great Betrayal) was an informal, unwritten deal, that settled the intensely disputed 1876 U.S. presidential election. It resulted in the United States federal government pulling the last troops out of the South, and formally ended the Reconstruction Era.

A long wire carrying a 5.0 A current perpendicular to the xy-plane intersects the x-axis at x= - 2.0 cm . A second, parallel wir
mario62 [17]

Answer:

a . 0.35cm

b.  11.33cm

Explanation:

a. Given both currents are in the same direction, the null point lies in between them. Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4-x

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in between the wires:

\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi x}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi(4-x)}\\\\5/x=\frac{3.5}{4-x}\\\\x=2.35cm\\\\N=2.35-2=0.35cm

Hence, for currents in same direction, the point is 0.35cm

b. Given both currents flow in opposite directions, the null point lies on the other side.

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in outside the wires:

Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4+x:

\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi(4+ x)}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi x}\\\\5/(4+x)=\frac{3.5}{x}\\\\x=9.33cm\\\\N=9.33+2=11.33cm

Hence, if currents are in opposite directions the point on x-axis is 11.33cm
