A tank has the shape of an inverted circular cone with height 16m and base radius 3m. The tank is filled with water to a height

of 9m. Find the work required to empty the tank by pumping all of the water over the top of the tank. Use the fact that acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/sec2 and the density of water is 1000kg/m3. Round your answer to the nearest kilojoule.

Answer:

W=17085KJ

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height H=16m

Radius R=3

Height of water H_w=9m

Gravity g=9.8m/s

Density of water \rho=1000kg/m^3

Generally the equation for Volume of water is mathematically given by

 dv=\pi*r^2dy

 dv=\frac{\piR^2}{H^2}(H-y)^2dy

Where

   y is a random height taken to define dv

Generally the equation for Work done to pump water is mathematically given by

 dw=(pdv)g (H-y)

Substituting dv

 dw=(p(=\frac{\piR^2}{H^2}(H-y)^2dy))g (H-y)

 dw=\frac{\rho*g*R^2}{H^2}(H-y)^3dy

Therefore

 W=\int dw

 W=\int(\frac{\rho*g*R^2}{H^2}(H-y)^3)dy

 W=\rho*g*R^2}{H^2}\int((H-y)^3)dy)

 W=\frac{1000*9.8*3.142*3^2}{9^2}[((9-y)^3)}^9_0

 W=3420.84*0.25[2401-65536]

 W=17084965.5J

 W=17085KJ

A certain tuning fork vibrates at a frequency of 215 Hz while each tip of its two prongs has an amplitude of 0.832 mm. (a) What
Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of vibration, f = 215 Hz

Amplitude, A = 0.832 mm

(a) Let T is the period of this motion. It is given by the following relation as :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T=\dfrac{1}{215}

T=4.65\times 10^{-3}\ s

(b) Speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

It can be given by :

v=f\times \lambda

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{215\ Hz}

\lambda=1.59\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.
