Which ray diagram demonstrates the phenomenon of absorption?

A fireboat is to fight fires at coastal areas by drawing seawater with a density of 1030 kg/m3 through a 10-cm-diameter pipe at

GaryK [48]

Answer:

50.93 m/s

199.5 kW

Explanation:

From the question, the nozzle exit diameter = 5 cm, Radius= diameter/2= 5cm/2= 2.5cm. we can convert it to metre for unit consistency= (2.5×0.01)=

0.025m

We can calculate the The cross sectional area of the nozzle as

A= πr^2

A= π ×0.025^2

= 1.9635 ×10^- ³ m²

From the question, the water is moving through the pipe at a rate of 0.1 m /s , then for the water to move through it at a seconds, it must move at

(0.1 / 1.9635 ×10^- ³ m²)

= 50.93 m/s

During the Operation of the pump, the Dynamic energy of the water= potential energy provided there is no loss during the Operation

mgh = 1/2mv²

We can make "h" subject of the formula, which is the height of required head of water

h = (1/2mv²)/mg

h= v² / 2g

h = 50.93² / (2 ×9.81)

h = 132.21m

From the question;

The total irreversible head loss of the system = 3 m,

the given position of nozzle = 3 m

the total head the pump needed=(The total irreversible head loss of the system + the position of the nozzle + required head of water )

=(3 + 3 + 132.21m)

=138.21m

mass of water pumped in a seconds can be calculated since we know that mass is a product of volume and density

Volume= 0.1m³

Density of sea water=1030 kg/m

(0.1 m^3× 1030)

= 103kg

We can calculate the Potential enegry, which is = mgh

= (103 ×9.81 × 138.21)

= 139651.5 Watts

= 139.65kW

To determine required shaft power input to the pump and the water discharge velocity

Energy= efficiency × power

But we are given efficiency of 70 percent, then

139651.5 Watts = 0.7P

=199502.18 Watts

P=199.5 kW

Therefore, the required shaft power input to the pump and the water discharge velocity is 199.5 kW

As the wavelength increases, the frequency (2 points) Select one:

LiRa [457]

A.
According to the equation: v=λ*f
λ stands for wavelength. wavelength increases, the frequency will decrease. lower frequency deserves low energy.

A person of mass 70 kg stands at the center of a rotating merry-go-round platform of radius 2.9 m and moment of inertia 900 kg⋅m

Cloud [144]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of person, m = 70 kg

Radius of merry go round, r = 2.9 m

The moment of inertia, $I_1=900\ kg.m^2$

Initial angular velocity of the platform, $\omega=0.95\ rad/s$

Part A,

Let $\omega_2$ is the angular velocity when the person reaches the edge. We need to find it. It can be calculated using the conservation of angular momentum as :

$I_1\omega_1=I_2\omega_2$

Here, $I_2=I_1+mr^2$

$I_1\omega_1=(I_1+mr^2)\omega_2$

$900\times 0.95=(900+70\times (2.9)^2)\omega_2$

Solving the above equation, we get the value as :

$\omega_2=0.574\ rad/s$

Part B,

The initial rotational kinetic energy is given by :

$k_i=\dfrac{1}{2}I_1\omega_1^2$

$k_i=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 900\times (0.95)^2$

$k_i=406.12\ rad/s$

The final rotational kinetic energy is given by :

$k_f=\dfrac{1}{2}(I_1+mr^2)\omega_1^2$

$k_f=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (900+70\times (2.9)^2)(0.574)^2$

$k_f=245.24\ rad/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Measurements of acceleration are given in units of ?

Lady_Fox [76]

Meters per second squared: $\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

If you think about it, acceleration is about how fast speed changes. Speed is measured in meters per second: $\frac{m}{s}$

So if you take that and just measure it over time, you get meters per second squared.

The dragster has a mass of 1.3 Mg and a center of mass at G. A parachute is attached at C provides a horizontal braking force of

adell [148]

Answer:

The deceleration of the dragster upon releasing the parachute such that the wheels at B are on the verge of leaving the ground is 16.33 m/s²

Explanation:

The additional information to the question is embedded in the diagram attached below:

The height between the dragster and ground is considered to be 0.35 m since is not given ; thus in addition win 0.75 m between the dragster and the parachute; we have: (0.75 + 0.35) m = 1.1 m

Balancing the equilibrium about point A;

F(1.1) - mg (1.25) = $ma_a (0.35)$
