Answer:

Explanation:

The sig figs are off in the answer (unless you use -9.81 for the acceleration due to gravity. My classes always use -9.8, which is 2 sig figs. But nevertheless, we can solve it!) Use the velocity formula:

$v_f=v_0+at$ where vf is the final velocity, v0 is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration due to gravity, and t is the time in seconds. Filling in, using the fact that both the velocities are negative since the ball is going down:

-24.5 = -12.1 +(-9.8)t or

-24.5 = -12.1 - 9.8t and

-12.4 = -9.8t and divide to get that

t = 1.27 sec

A Venturi tube may be used as a fluid flowmeter. Suppose the device is used at a service station to measure the flow rate of gas

leonid [27]

Answer

given,

flow rate = p = 660 kg/m³

outer radius = 2.8 cm

P₁ - P₂ = 1.20 k Pa

inlet radius = 1.40 cm

using continuity equation

A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

π r₁² v₁ = π r₁² v₂

$v_1= \dfrac{r_1^2}{r_2^2} v_2$

$v_1= \dfrac{1.4^2}{2.8^2} v_2$

$v_1= 0.25 v_2$

Applying Bernoulli's equation

$\Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)$

$\Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-(0.25 v_2)^2)$

$\Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 (1 - 0.0625)$

$v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\Delta P}{\rho(1 - 0.0625)}}$

$v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1200}{660 \times(1 - 0.0625)}}$

v₂ = 1.97 m/s

b) fluid flow rate

Q = A₂ V₂

Q = π (0.014)² x 1.97

Q = 1.21 x 10⁻³ m³/s

The force applied to lift the crate is 171 N

Explanation:

The lever works on the principle of equilibrium of moments, so we can write:

$F_i d_i = F_o d_o$

where

$F_i$ is the force in input

$d_i$ is the arm of the input force

$F_o$ is the output force

$d_o$ is the arm of the output force

For the lever in this problem, we have:

$d_i = 0.25 m$

$d_o = 0.19 m$

$F_i = 130 N$ (force applied)

Solving the equation for $F_o$ , we find the force applied to lift the crate:

$F_o = \frac{F_i d_i}{d_o}=\frac{(130)(0.25)}{0.19}=171 N$

A uniform electric field with a magnitude of 5750 N/C points in the positive x direction. Find the change in electric potential

castortr0y [4]

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 5750 N/C

Charge $q=+10.5\times10^{-6}\ C$

Distance = 5.50 cm

(a). When the charge is moved in the positive x- direction

We need to calculate the change in electric potential energy

Using formula of electric potential energy

$\Delta U=-W$

$\Delta U=-F\cdot d$

$\Delta U=-q(E\cdot d)$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta U=-10.5\times10^{-6}\times5750\times5.50\times10^{-2}$

$\Delta U=-3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

The change in electric potential energy is $-3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

(b). When the charge is moved in the negative x- direction

We need to calculate the change in electric potential energy

Using formula of electric potential energy

$\Delta U=-W$

$\Delta U=-F\cdot (-d)$

$\Delta U=-q(E\cdot (-d))$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta U=-10.5\times10^{-6}\times5750\times(-5.50\times10^{-2})$

$\Delta U=3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

The change in electric potential energy is $3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

Hence, This is the required solution.
