Answer:
a)V= 0.0827 m³
b)P=181.11 x 10² N/m²
Explanation:
Given that
m = 81.5 kg
Density ,ρ = 985 kg/m³
As we know that
Mass = Volume x Density
81.5 = V x 985
V= 0.0827 m³
The force exerted by weight = m g
F= m g= 81.5 x 10 = 815 N ( Take ,g= 10 m/s²)
Area ,A= 4.5 x 10⁻² m²
The Pressure P
P=181.11 x 10² N/m²
The ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) can be determined by the following equation:
IMA= Input distance/Output distance
The Input distance and Output distance are:
Input distance=220 meters
Output distance=110 meters
When you substitute in the equation of the ideal mechanical advantage (IMA), you obtain:
IMA= Input distance/Output distance
IMA= 220 meters/110 meters
IMA=2
Answer:
The discharge of the stream at this location is 40 cubic meters per second.
Explanation:
The discharge is the volume flow rate of the water in the stream. For this purpose we can use the following formula:
Discharge = Volume Flow Rate = (Cross-Sectional Area)(Velocity of Stream)
Volume Flow Rate = (Width of Stream)(Depth of Stream)(Velocity of Stream)
Volume Flow Rate = (4 meters)(2 meters)(5 meters per second)
<u>Volume Flow Rate = 40 cubic meters per second</u>
Therefore, the discharge of the stream at this location is found to be <u>40 cubic meters per second</u>
This result shows that 40 cubic meters volume of water passes or discharges through this point in a time of one second. Hence, this is called the volume flow rate or the discharge of the stream.
