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

A 1100 kgkg safe is 2.4 mm above a heavy-duty spring when the rope holding the safe breaks. The safe hits the spring and compres
Drupady [299]

Answer:

191.36 N/m

Explanation:

From the question,

The Potential Energy of the safe = Energy of the spring when it was compressed.

mgh = 1/2ke²............... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the safe, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height of the save above the heavy duty spring , k = spring constant, e = compression

Making k the subject of the equation,

k =2mgh/e²................ Equation 2

Given: m = 1100 kg, h = 2.4 mm = 0.0024 m, e = 0.52 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

k = 2(1100)(9.8)(0.0024)/0.52²

k = 51.744/0.2704

k = 191.36 N/m

Hence the spring constant of the heavy-duty spring = 191.36 N/m

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow \dfrac{100}{313}=\dfrac{V_2}{263}

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow V_2=\dfrac{26300}{313}

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow V_2=84.02ml

Tamiku [17]
The control setup in this experiment would be one tank that does not contain any of the additives. Since the tanks with the gasoline additives would need to be compared with a tank that is not affected by the results of these additives.
