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

“Is it correct to say that a radio wave can be considered a low-frequency light wave?
klio [65]

It's weird but technically correct to say that a radio wave can be considered a low-frequency light wave.  Radio and light are both electromagnetic waves.  The only difference is that radio waves have much much much longer wavelengths, and much much much lower frequencies, than light waves have.  But they're both the same physical phenomenon.

However, a radio wave CAN'T also be considered to be a sound wave.  These two things are as different as two waves can be.

-- Radio is an electromagnetic wave. Sound is a mechanical wave.

-- Radio waves travel more than 800 thousand times faster than sound waves do.

-- Radio waves are transverse waves. Sound waves are longitudinal waves.

-- Radio waves can travel through empty space. Sound waves need material stuff to travel through.

-- Radio waves can be detected by radio, TV, and microwave receivers. Sound waves can't.

-- Sound waves can be detected by our ears. Radio waves can't.

-- Sound waves can be generated by talking, or by hitting a frying pan with a spoon. Radio waves can't.

-- Radio waves can be generated by an alternating current flowing through an isolated wire. Sound waves can't.

Using hooke's law find the elastic constant of a spring that stretches 2 cm when 4newton force is applied to it
erica [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

2N/cm

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

According to the Hooke's Law, the force required to extend or compress a spring is directly proportional distance you can stretch it, which is represented as:

F=kx

where, F is the force which is stretching or compressing the spring,

k is the spring constant; and

x is the distance the spring is stretched.

Substituting the given values to find the elastic constant  k to get:

F=kx

4=k(2)

k=\frac{4}{2}

k=2

Therefore, the elastic constant is 2 Newton/cm.

How does the speed of an object relate to the energy of the object
Ann [662]

Answer:

Increasing the speed of an object decreases its motion energy. Increasing the speed of an object increases its motion energy. Increasing the speed of an object does not affect its motion energy. Whether or not its motion energy is affected depends on how much its speed was increased.
