Answer:

26852726.19\ \text{N}

57.52^{\circ}

Explanation:

r = Radius of circle = 7 m

w = Width of dam = 60 m

h = Height of the dam will be half the radius = \dfrac{r}{2}

A = Area = rw

V = Volume = w\dfrac{\pi r^2}{4}

Horizontal force is given by

F_x=\rho ghA\\\Rightarrow F_x=1000\times 9.81\times \dfrac{7}{2}\times  7\times 60\\\Rightarrow F_x=14420700\ \text{N}

Vertical force is given by

F_y=\rho gV\\\Rightarrow F_y=1000\times 9.81\times 60\times \dfrac{\pi 7^2}{4}\\\Rightarrow F_y=22651982.59\ \text{N}

Resultant force is

F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}\\\Rightarrow F=\sqrt{14420700^2+22651982.59^2}\\\Rightarrow F=26852726.19\ \text{N}

The hydrostatic force on the dam is 26852726.19\ \text{N}.

The direction is given by

\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{F_y}{F_x}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{22651982.59}{14420700}\\\Rightarrow \theta=57.52^{\circ}

The line of action is 57.52^{\circ}.

Alfredo makes a diagram to organize his notes about charging objects.
konstantin123 [22]

The region marked X in the diagram shows that the objects have the same charge.

<h3>What is conduction?</h3>

The term conduction has to do with the manner of charging in which charge is passed from one object to another. Induction involves charging objects without the objects touching each other.

The region marked X in the diagram shows that the objects have the same charge.

A 45.0-kg sample of ice is at 0.00°C. How much heat is needed to melt it? For water, Lf=334 kJ/kg and Lv=2257 kJ/kg 
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Heat required to change the phase of ice is given by

Q = m* L

here

m = mass of ice

L = latent heat of fusion

now we have

m = 45 kg

L = 334 KJ/kg

now by using above formula

Q = 45 * 334 * 10^3

Q = 1.5 * 10^7 J

In KJ we can convert this as

Q = 1.5 * 10^4 kJ

so the correct answer is D option

The pressure on a fluid at rest in a pipe increases by 20 Pa. How does this change in pressure affect the pressure on the fluid
timofeeve [1]

Answer:The change in pressure can affect the pressure on the fluid through the radius and diameter of the pipe.

r^² x Pressure (pa).

Therefore the narrower the other part of the pile, the greater the pressure on the fluid at such part, the wider in other part the lesser the pressure on the fluid at this part.
