You have probably noticed that carrying a person in a pool of water is much easier than carrying a person through air. To unders

tand why, find the buoyant force exerted by air and by water on the person. Assume the average volume of a person is 0.092 m3, and that the person is submerged in air and water respectively. (Give the magnitude.)

Answer:

The answer is "0.91238 and 744.8"

Explanation:

In this scenario it is easier to take a person to the water-pool than to transport the people in the air, as the person's strength is increased by water upwards:

f_b \to m \to mg =person \\\\F_B \ in\  air = v\ & air\  g \\\\

               =0.076 \times 1.225 \times 9.8 \\\\ =0.91238 \ N\\\\

F_B \ in \ water = v  \& water \ g \\\\

                    =0.076 \times 1000 \times 9.8\\\\= 744.8 \ N\\

Using a density of air to be 1.21kg/m3, the diameter of the bottom part of the filter as 0.15m (assume circular cross-section),
salantis [7]

Answer:

The  drag coefficient is  D_z  =  1.30512  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The density of air is  \rho_a  = 1.21 \ kg/m^3

     The diameter of bottom part is  d = 0.15 \ m

The  power trend-line  equation is mathematically represented as

      F_{\alpha }  = 0.9226 * v^{0.5737}

let assume that the velocity is  20 m/s

Then

      F_{\alpha }  = 0.9226 * 20^{0.5737}

       F_{\alpha }  = 5.1453 \ N

The drag coefficient is mathematically represented as

      D_z  =  \frac{2 F_{\alpha } }{A \rho v^2 }

Where  

     F_{\alpha } is the drag force

      \rho is the density of the fluid

       v is the flow velocity

       A is the area which mathematically evaluated as

       A = \pi r^2 =  \pi  \frac{d^2}{4}

substituting values

     A =  3.142 *    \frac{(0.15)^2}{4}

     A = 0.0176 \  m^2

Then

   D_z  =  \frac{2 * 5.1453 }{0.0176 * 1.12 *  20^2 }

   D_z  =  1.30512

5p - 14 = 8 p + 4 find p
Digiron [165]

Answer:

Explanation:

5p - 14 = 8p + 4

5p = 8p + 18 <-- Moving constants to one side; add the same number of +14 to both sides.

-3p = 18. <-- The same thing with the variable itself.

p = -6 <-- Divide both sides by negative 3.

A 0.250 kg fan cart accelerates at 24 cm/ s^2 for 4.5 seconds. what is the net force (fan thrust minus drag and friction) on the
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

0.06 N

1.08 m/s

Explanation:

m = mass of the fan cart = 0.250 kg

a = acceleration of the fan cart = 24 cm/s² = 0.24 m/s²

F = Net force on the cart

Net force on the cart is given as

F = ma

F = (0.250) (0.24)

F = 0.06 N

v₀ = initial velocity of the cart = 0 m/s

v = final velocity of the cart

t = time interval = 4.5 s

Using the equation

v = v₀ + a t

v = 0 + (0.24) (4.5)

v = 1.08 m/s
