Hang two sheets of paper vertically from adjacent corners. The sheets should be parallel and close to each other with a small ga

p between them. Now gently blow down between the two sheets. What happens? a. The sheets move toward each other and the gap narrows. b. The sheets move away from each other and the gap widens c. Nothing happens. The gap between the two sheets remains constant.

Answer:

a. The sheets move toward each other and the gap narrows.

Explanation:

This exercise is related to fluid mechanics, when blowing between the two sheets, we can apply Bernoulli's equation, where the index 2 is the space between the two sheets

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

if the two leaves are at the same height

                      y₁ = y₂

 whereby

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

for the air velocity between the leaves let us use the continuity equation

        A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

the area between the leaves is less than the external area, so the air speed must increase. If we use this in Bernoulli's equation, increasing the speed 2 (between the leaves) to maintain equality the pressure must decrease.

If the pressure decreases, the blades should move closer

When resisting the answers, the correct one is  a

What is the average acceleration of a tennis ball that has an initial velocity of 6.0 m/s [E] and a final velocity of 7.3 m/s [W
Marizza181 [45]

Given :

The average acceleration of a tennis ball that has an initial velocity of 6.0 m/s.

and a final velocity of 7.3 m/s.

It is in contact with a tennis racket for 0.094 s

To Find :

The average acceleration of the tennis ball.

Solution :

We know, average acceleration is given by :

a_{avg}=\dfrac{Final \ velocity-Initial\ velocity}{Time\ Taken}\\\\a_{avg}=\dfrac{7.3-6.0}{0.094}\ m/s^2\\\\a_{avg}=13.83\ m/s^2

Therefore, average velocity is given by 13.83 m/s².

Hence, this is the required solution.

Describe why cars are inefficient machines in terms of thermodynamics.
Alina [70]

Cars are the mechanical device which convert chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, the engine used in the automobiles car are very inefficient, they can only convert 30-40% of chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, since thermodynamics is the branch of science that deals with the conversion of energy, thus due to poor conversion rate of chemical energy into mechanical energy, cars are known as inefficient machine.

If the car’s speed decreases at a constant rate from 64 mi/h to 30 mi/h in 3.0 s, what is the magnitude of its acceleration, ass
mixas84 [53]

Answer:3.874 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

Car speed decreases at a constant rate from 64 mi/h to 30 mi/h

in 3 sec

60mi/h \approx 26.8224m/s

34mi/h \approx 15.1994 m/s

we know acceleration is given by =\frac{velocity}{Time}

a=\frac{15.1994-26.8224}{3}

a=-3.874 m/s^2

negative indicates that it is stopping the car

Distance traveled

v^2-u^2=2as

\left ( 15.1994\right )^2-\left ( 26.8224\right )^2=2\left ( -3.874\right )s

s=\frac{488.419}{2\times 3.874}

s=63.038 m
