In a large chemical factory, a feed pipe carries a liquid at a speed of 5.5 m/s. A pump pushes the liquid along at a gauge press

ure of 140,000 Pa. The liquid travels upward 6.0 m and enters a tank at a gauge pressure of 2,000 Pa. The diameter of the pipe remains constant. At what speed does the liquid enter the tank

Answer:

v₂ = 15.24 m / s

Explanation:

This is an exercise in fluid mechanics

Let's write Bernoulli's equation, where the subscript 1 is for the factory pipe and the subscript 2 is for the tank.

          P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂

They indicate the pressure in the factory P₁ = 140000 Pa, the velocity

v₁ = 5.5 m / s and the initial height is zero y₁ = 0

the tank is at a pressure of P2 = 2000 Pa and a height of y₂ = 6.0 m

          P₁ -P₂ + ρ g (y₁ -y₂) + ½ ρ v₁² = ½ ρ v₂²

           

let's calculate

         140,000 - 2000 + ρ 9.8 (0- 6) + ½ ρ 5.5² = ½ ρ v₂²

         138000 - ρ 58.8 + ρ 15.125 = ½ ρ v2²

         v₂² = 2 (138000 /ρ - 58.8 + 15.125)

         v₂ = \sqrt{\frac{276000}{\rho }  - 43.675 }

In the exercise they do not indicate what type of liquid is being used, suppose it is water with

           ρ = 1000 kg / m³

           v₂ = \sqrt{\frac{276000}{1000} - 43.675}

           v₂ = 15.24 m / s

Which of the following represents the greatest energy transition from a higher energy level to a lower one?
prohojiy [21]
You need to use Planck's law:
E = h·υ = (h·c)/λ

Without making all the calculations, a fraction is bigger than another when the denominator is smaller. Therefore you need to find the smallest wavelength (λ) which is 450nm.

You could also be helped by colors: in order of decreasing energy, you have blue - green - yellow - red.

In any case, the correct answer is a).

What material is most commonly used to make a photovoltaic solar cell?
zaharov [31]

Solar cells can be classified into first, second and third generation cells. The first generation cells—also called conventional, traditional or wafer-based cells—are made of crystalline silicon, the commercially predominant PV technology, that includes materials such as polysilicon and monocrystalline silicon.

Compare and contrast potential and kinetic energy
inysia [295]
Kinetic and Potential Energy HistoryA roller coaster train going down hill represents merely a complex case as a body is descending an inclined plane. Newton's first two laws relate force and acceleration, which are key concepts in roller coaster physics. At amusement parks, Newton's laws can be applied to every ride. These rides range from 'The Swings' to The 'Hammer'. Newton was also one of the developers of calculus which is essential to analyzing falling bodies constrained on more complex paths than inclined planes. A roller coaster rider is in an gravitational field except with the Principle of Equivalence.Potential EnergyPotential energy is the same as stored energy. The "stored" energy is held within the gravitational field. When you lift a heavy object you exert energy which later will become kinetic energy when the object is dropped. A lift motor from a roller coaster exerts potential energy when lifting the train to the top of the hill. The higher the train is lifted by the motor the more potential energy is produced; thus, forming a greater amount if kinetic energy when the train is dropped. At the top of the hills the train has a huge amount of potential energy, but it <span>has very little kinetic energy.Kinetic Energy The word "kinetic" is derived from the Greek word meaning to move, and the word "energy" is the ability to move. Thus, "kinetic energy" is the energy of motion --it's ability to do work. The faster the body moves the more kinetic energy is produced. The greater the mass and speed of an object the more kinetic energy there will be. Hope this helped:))))</span>
