Answer:

a

  v_2 =  5.6 \  m/s

b

   P_2 = 80600 \  Pa

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The pressure of the water in the pipe is  P_1= 110 \  kPa  =  110 *10^{3 } \  Pa

      The speed of the water  is v_1 =  1.4 \  m/s

       The original area of the pipe is  A_1 =  \pi \frac{d^2 }{4}

       The  new area of the pipe is  A_2 = \pi *  \frac{[\frac{d}{2} ]^2}{4}  =  \pi *  \frac{\frac{d^2}{4} }{4} = \pi \frac{d^2}{16}

         

Generally the continuity equation is mathematically represented as

       A_1 *  v_1 =  A_2 * v_2

Here v_2 is the new velocity  

So

        \pi * \frac{d^2}{4}   *  1.4  = \pi * \frac{d^2}{16}   * v_2

=>     \frac{d^2}{4}   *  1.4  =  \frac{d^2}{16}   * v_2

=>    d^2    *  1.4  =  \frac{d^2}{4}   * v_2

=>    1.4  = 0.25    * v_2

=>     v_2 =  5.6 \  m/s

Generally given that the height of the original pipe and the narrower pipe are the same , then we will b making use of the  Bernoulli's equation for constant height to calculate the pressure

This is mathematically represented as

       

             P_1 + \frac{1}{2}  *  \rho *  v_1 ^2  =  P_2 + \frac{1}{2}  *  \rho *  v_2 ^2

Here \rho is the density of water with value  \rho =  1000  \  kg /m^3

             P_2 =  P_1 + \frac{1}{2} *  \rho [ v_1^2 - v_2^2 ]

=>          P_2 =  110 *10^{3} + \frac{1}{2} *  1000 *  [ 1.4 ^2 - 5.6 ^2 ]

=>          P_2 = 80600 \  Pa

You drive a car east on the highway at 26 m/s. Another car passes you moving east traveling at 32 m/s. How fast do you view the
tamaranim1 [39]

The speed of the car passing you is 6 m/s while car is moving 6 m/s behind the car.

<h3>Relative velocity of the car</h3>

The speed of the car passing you is determined by applying relative velocity principle as shown below;

Vr = Va - Vb

Vr = 26 m/s - 32 m/s

Vr = -6 m/s

Thus, the speed of the car passing you is 6 m/s while car is moving 6 m/s behind the car.

We can detect 21-cm emission from other galaxies as well as from our own Galaxy. However, 21-cm emission from our own Galaxy fil
amid [387]

Answer:

Explanation:

Galaxies are in constant motion with respect to each other . For example Andromeda galaxy is approaching our galaxy ( milky way ) at about 110 km /s . So we will observe blue shift in the spectrum of radiation coming from  this galaxy . In this way, we can distinguish between radiation coming from our galaxy and that coming from other galaxy . Spectrum of radiation coming from other galaxy must  have either red or blue  shift .

A generator is designed to produce a maximum emf of 190 V while rotating with an angular speed of 3800 rpm. Each coil of the gen
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The number of turns of wire needed is 573.8 turns

Explanation:

Given;

maximum emf of the generator, = 190 V

angular speed of the generator, ω = 3800 rev/min =

area of the coil, A = 0.016 m²

magnetic field, B = 0.052 T

The number of turns of the generator is calculated as;

emf = NABω

where;

N is the number of turns

\omega = 3800 \frac{rev}{min} \times \frac{2\pi}{1 \ rev} \times \frac{1 \min}{60 \ s } = 397.99 \ rad/s

N = \frac{emf}{AB\omega } \\\\N = \frac{190}{0.016 \times 0.052\times 397.99} \\\\N = 573.8 \ turns

Therefore, the number of turns of wire needed is 573.8 turns
