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>

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 :

$T\ cos\theta-mg=0$
