Answer:
Flow rate 2.34 m3/s
Diameter 0.754 m
Explanation:
Assuming steady flow, the volume flow rate along the pipe will always be constant, and equals to the product of flow speed and cross-section area.
The area at the well head is

So the volume flow rate along the pipe is

We can use the similar logic to find the cross-section area at the refinery

The radius of the pipe at the refinery is:



So the diameter is twice the radius = 0.38*2 = 0.754m
Kinetic energy is the energy associated with the motion of an object. It's a scalar quantity, there is no direction associated with KE and it has no components.

.
Therefore Kinetic energy is 817.96J.
The correct answer is decreases
The further away you are the weaker it would be. That's why at one point you stop being in the field and ti doesn't pull you towards it anymore. Proportionally, if you move towards the Earth then it increases.
Answer:
Let's investigate the case where the cable breaks.
Conservation of angular momentum can be used to find the speed.

The projectile embeds itself to the ball, so they can be treated as a combined object. <u>The moment of inertia of the combined object is equal to the sum of the moment of inertia of both objects. </u>

where r is the length of the cable.
<u>After the collision, the ball and the projectile makes a circular motion because of the cable.</u> So, the force (tension) in circular motion is

The relation between linear velocity and the angular velocity is

So,

As can be seen, the maximum velocity for the projectile without breaking the cable is
, where r is the length of the cable.
