1 answer:
This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
According to information found in an old hydraulics book, the energy loss per unit weight of fluid flowing through a nozzle connected to a hose can be estimated by the formula; h= (0.04 to 0.09)(D/d)⁴V²/2g
where h is the energy loss per unit weight, D the hose diameter, d the nozzle tip diameter, V the fluid velocity in the hose, and g the acceleration of gravity.
Do you think this equation is valid in any system of units
Answer:
YES, the equation is a general equation that is valid in any system of units
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
h = (0.04 to 0.09)(D/d)⁴ ×
so
[ N.m/N ] = (0.04 to 0.09) ( m/m)² × (m²/s²)1/2 × (s²/m)
[ N.L/N ] = (0.04 to 0.09) ( L⁴/L⁴) × (L²/T²)1/2 × (T²/L)
∴ [ L ] = (0.04 to 0.09) [L]
So as each term in the equation must have the same dimensions, the constant term (0.04 to 0.09) must be without dimension.
Therefore, YES, the equation is a general equation that is valid in any system of units

Answer:
La escala del termómetro ''A'' es grados Celsius.
La escala del termómetro ''B'' es grados Fahrenheit.
Explanation:
Para hallar en qué escalas están los termómetros partimos de que la mezcla a la cuál se midió su temperatura mantuvo su temperatura constante.
Esto quiere decir que los termómetros están expresando la misma temperatura pero en una escala distinta.
Sabemos que dada una temperatura en grados Celsius ''C'' si la queremos convertir a grados Fahrenheit ''F'' debemos utilizar la siguiente ecuación :
(I)
Ahora, si reemplazamos y asumimos que la temperatura de 18° es en grados Celsius, entonces si reemplazamos en la ecuación (I) deberíamos obtener
⇒
Efectivamente obtenemos el valor esperado. Finalmente, corroboramos que la temperatura del termómetro ''A'' está medida en grados Celsius y la temperatura del termómetro ''B'' en grados Fahrenheit.
Answer:
Explanation:
Let's use Ohm's law:
or
(1)
Where:
We know the value of the voltage V, so we need to find the value of R in order to find I. Fortunately there is a relation between the resistivity of a conductor and its electrical resistance given by:
(2)
Where:
Keep in mind that the electrical resistivity of the gold is a known constant which is and the cross sectional area of the conductor is calculated as:
Because we have a wire in this case, so we assume a cylindrical geometry.
Now replacing our data in (2)
Finally, we know R and V, so replacing these values in (1) we will be able to find the current:
