Two streams merge to form a river. One stream has a width of 8.9 m, depth of 3.8 m, and current speed of 2.3 m/s. The other stre

am is 6.5 m wide and 3.9 m deep, and flows at 2.6 m/s. If the river has width 10.7 m and speed 3.0 m/s, what is its depth?

<h2>Depth of river is 4.48 m</h2>

Explanation:

Discharge = Area x Velocity

Discharge of river = Discharge of stream 1 + Discharge of stream 2

A_rv_r=A_1v_1+A_2v_2

Area of stream 1 = w₁ x d₁ = 8.9 x 3.8 = 33.82 m²

Area of stream 2 = w₂ x d₂ = 6.5 x 3.9 = 25.35 m²

Velocity of stream 1 = 2.3 m/s

Velocity of stream 2 = 2.6 m/s

Velocity of river = 3 m/s

\texttt{Area of river = }w_r\times d_r=10.7\times d_r

Substituting

             A_rv_r=A_1v_1+A_2v_2\\\\10.7\times d_r\times 3=33.82\times 2.3+25.35\times 2.6\\\\d_r=4.48m

Depth of river = 4.48 m

Suppose the U.S. national debt is about $14 trillion. If payments were made at the rate of $3,500 per second, how many years wou
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

It will take 126.84 years to pay off the debt

Explanation:

Total debt = $14,000,000,000,000.00

Paid $3,500 per second

Number of seconds to pay off the debt will be:

14 ×10^12 /3500

Number of seconds = 4× 10^9 seconds

Converting seconds to year:

I second = 3.171 ×10^-8 calendar year

Therefore, number of years it will take to pay off $14 Trillion =( 4 ×10^9 ) × ( 3.171 × 10^-8)

Number of years = 126.84 years
