Physics
1 answer:
Tems11 [23]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Light can travel in three ways from a source to another location: (1) directly from the source through empty space; (2) through various media; (3) after being reflected from a mirror.

An intravenous (IV) system is supplying saline solution to a patient at the rate of 0.06 cm3/s through a needle of radius 0.2 mm
horsena [70]

Answer:

Pressure applied to the needle is 7528 Pa

Explanation:

As we know by poiseuille's law of flow of liquid through a cylindrical pipe

the rate of flow through the pipe is given as

Q = \frac{\Delta P \pi r^4}{8\eta L}

now we know that

Q = 0.06 \times 10^{-6} m^3/s

radius = 0.2 mm

Length = 6.32 cm

\eta = 1\times 10^{-3} Pa s

now we have

6 \times 10^{-8} = \frac{\Delta P \pi (0.2 \times 10^{-3})^4}{8(1 \times 10^{-3})6.32 \times 10^{-2}}

3.03 \times 10^{-11} = \Delta P 5.02 \times 10^{-15}

\Delta P = 6028 Pa

now we have

P - 1500 = 6028 Pa

P = 7528 Pa

In one scene in the movie The Godfather II, a solid gold phone is passed around a large table for everyone to see. Suppose the v
dangina [55]
Volume of gold in the phone = 10 cm^3
                                              = 0.<span>00001 m^3 </span>
Density of gold = 19300 kg/m^3
1 kg mass = 2.2 pounds
Mass of 10 cm^3 of gold = 0<span>.00001 m^3 * (19300 kg/m^3)
                                        = 0.193 kg 
So
0.193 kg = 0.193 * 2.2 pounds
               = 0.43 pounds
I think there is something wrong with the options given in the question.</span>

A small metal ball is suspended from the ceiling by a thread of negligible mass. The ball is then set in motion in a horizontal
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Time taken, T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l\ cos\theta}{g}}

Explanation:

It is given that, a small metal ball is suspended from the ceiling by a thread of negligible mass. The ball is then set in motion in a horizontal circle so that the thread’s trajectory describes a cone as shown in attached figure.

From the figure,

The sum of forces in y direction is :

T\ cos\theta-mg=0

T=\dfrac{mg}{cos\theta}

Sum of forces in x direction,

T\ sin\theta=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

mg\ tan\theta=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}.............(1)

Also, r=l\ sin\theta

Equation (1) becomes :

mg\ tan\theta=\dfrac{mv^2}{l\ sin\theta}

v=\sqrt{gl\ tan\theta.sin\theta}...............(2)

Let t is the time taken for the ball to rotate once around the axis. It is given by :

T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v}

Put the value of T from equation (2) to the above expression:

T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{\sqrt{gl\ tan\theta.sin\theta}}

T=\dfrac{2\pi l\ sin\theta}{\sqrt{gl\ tan\theta.sin\theta}}

On solving above equation :

T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l\ cos\theta}{g}}

Hence, this is the required solution.
