A round pipe of varying diameter carries petroleum from a wellhead to a refinery. At the wellhead, the pipe's diameter is 50.9 c

seraphim [82]

Answer:

Flow rate 2.34 m3/s

Diameter 0.754 m

Explanation:

Assuming steady flow, the volume flow rate along the pipe will always be constant, and equals to the product of flow speed and cross-section area.

The area at the well head is

$A = \pi r_w^2 = \pi (0.509/2)^2 = 0.203 m^2$

So the volume flow rate along the pipe is

$\dot{V} = Av = 0.203 * 11.5 = 2.34 m^3/s$

We can use the similar logic to find the cross-section area at the refinery

$A_r = \dot{V}/v_r = 2.34 / 5.25 = 0.446 m^2$

The radius of the pipe at the refinery is:

$A_r = \pi r^2$

$r^2 =A_r/\pi = 0.446/\pi = 0.141$

$r = \sqrt{0.141} = 0.377m$

So the diameter is twice the radius = 0.38*2 = 0.754m

Determine the weight in newtons of a woman whose weight in pounds is 157. Also, find her mass in slugs and in kilograms. Determi

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Weight of the woman in Newton

$x = 698.6 \ N$

Mass of the woman in slug

$Mass = 4.86 \ slug$

Mass of the woman in kg

$Mass = 16 \ kg$

My weight in Newton

$W = 784 \ N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the woman in pounds is $W = 157 \ lb$

Converting to Newton

1 N = 0.22472 lb

x N = 157

=> $x = \frac{157 * 1}{0.22472}$

=> $x = 698.6 \ N$

Obtaining the mass in slug

$Mass = \frac{W}{g}$

Here $g = 32.2 ft/s^2$

$Mass = \frac{157 }{32.2}$

$Mass = 4.86 \ slug$

Obtaining the mass in kilogram

$Mass = \frac{W}{g}$

Here $g = 9.8 \ m/s$

$Mass = \frac{157 }{9.8}$

$Mass = 16 \ kg$

Generally weight is mathematically represented as

$W = m * g$

Given that my mass is 80 kg then my weight is

$W = 80 *9.8$

$W = 784 \ N$

A light source radiates 60.0 W of single-wavelength sinusoidal light uniformly in all directions. What is the amplitude of the m

Anna35 [415]

To solve this problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts of Intensity as a function of Power and the definition of magnetic field.

The intensity depending on the power is defined as

$I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2},$

Where

P = Power

r = Radius

Replacing the values that we have,

$I = \frac{60}{(4*\pi (0.7)^2)}$

$I = 9.75 Watt/m^2$

The definition of intensity tells us that,

$I = \frac{1}{2}\frac{B_o^2 c}{\mu}$

Where,

$B_0 =$ Magnetic field

$\mu =$ Permeability constant

c = Speed velocity

Then replacing with our values we have,

$9.75 = \frac{Bo^2 (3*10^8)}{(4\pi*10^{-7})}$

Re-arrange to find the magnetic Field B_0

$B_o = 2.86*10^{-7} T$

Therefore the amplitude of the magnetic field of this light is $B_o = 2.86*10^{-7} T$
