Answer:

V = 20 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 80kg

Kinetic energy = 16,000 joules

To find the velocity;

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

Where;

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

16000 = ½*80*V²

16000 = 40V²

V² = 16000/40

V² = 400

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

V = 20 m/s

A very powerful vacuum cleaner which has a hose of circular cross section can lift a brick of mass 12 kg when the hose is placed
valkas [14]

Answer:

A). 1.9 cm

Explanation:

m = Mass of brick = 12 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

r = Radius of hose

A = Area = \pi r^2

F = Force = mg

Let us assume that the pressure required to lift the brick would be atmospheric pressure

P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{F}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{F}{\pi P}}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{12\times 9.81}{\pi\times 101325}}\\\Rightarrow r=0.01923\ m=1.9\ cm

The radius of the hose should be 1.9 cm

Which characeristic makes omasis different from diffusion.
Ksju [112]
 <span>haha I used to think biology was so hard, i find it quite easy now. 
Okay, so basically Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Diffusion is generally the movement of a gradient from higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis applies to water only, whereas diffusion, you have many types such as Passive transport [ movement of molecules from high- low, NO CELLULAR ENERGY needed! ] then you have faciliated diffusion ( basically uses a channel protein to allow big substances to go through the membrane : NO ENERGY needed] 
OSMOSIS, the important thing to remember is that water ALWAYS flow towards the region with the higher concentration of the solute (ex: Salt is solute, water is solvent) solute is the thing that is being dissolved. Solvent is the one doing the dissolving. Hope this helped!</span>
