What is the difference in PE

Physics
1 answer:
BabaBlast [244]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

137.34 J

Explanation:

Info given:

mass1 = 2kg

height1 = 3m

mass2 = 4kg

height2 = 5m

g = 9.81m/s^2

PE = mgh

plug in info we have:

for first mass:

mgh = (2kg)(9.81m/s^2)(3m) = 58.86 J

for second mass:

mgh = (4kg)(9.81m/s^2)(5m) = 196.2 J

Difference: 196.2 J - 58.86 J = 137.34 J

7. Water flows trough a horizontal tube of diameter 2.5 cm that is joined to a second horizontal tube of diameter 1.2 cm. The pr
Usimov [2.4K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the continuity of fluids in a pipeline and apply Bernoulli's balance on the given speeds.

Our values are given as

d_1 = 2.5cm \rightarrow r_1=1.25cm=1.25*10^{-2}m

d_2 = 1.2cm \rightarrow r_2 = 0.6cm = 0.6*10^{-2}m

From the continuity equations in pipes we have to

A_1V_1 = A_2 V_2

Where,

A_{1,2} = Cross sectional Area at each section

V_{1,2} = Flow Velocity at each section

Then replacing we have,

(\pi r_1^2) v_1 = (\pi r_2^2) v_2

(1.25*10^{-2})^2 v_1 = ( 0.06*10^{-2})^2 v_2

v_2 = \frac{(1.25*10^{-2})^2 }{0.6*10^{-2})^2} v_1

From Bernoulli equation we have that the change in the pressure is

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

7.3*10^3 = \frac{1}{2} (1000)([ \frac{(1.25*10^{-2})^2 }{0.6*10^{-2})^2} v_1 ]^2-v_1^2)

7300= 8919.01 v_1^2

v_1 = 0.9m/s

Therefore the speed of flow in the first tube is 0.9m/s
