Answer:

The diameter of the needle is <u>4.675 cm</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Volume flow rate is, \dot V=103\ cm^3

Velocity of air expelled by pump is, v=6\ cm/s

Let the area of the needle be 'A' cm² and the diameter be 'd' cm.

We know that, volume flow rate of the air expelled by pump is given as the product of the needle's area and velocity of air flowing through that area.

Therefore, volume flow rate is given as:

\dot V=A\times v\\\\103=A\times 6\\\\6A=103\\\\A=\frac{103}{6}\ cm^2

Now, considering the needle to be circular, area of the needle can be written as:

A=\frac{\pi}{4}\times d^2\\\\\frac{103}{6}=\frac{\pi}{4}\times d^2\\\\d^2=\frac{103\times 4}{6\pi}\\\\d=\sqrt{\frac{103\times 4}{6\pi}}\\\\d=4.675\ cm

Therefore, the diameter of the needle is 4.675 cm.

How does an atom of potassium-41 become a potassium ion with a +1 charge? 19 K 39.10
stiv31 [10]

It is very difficult for an atom to accept a proton. It can only be done under very special circumstances. So A and C are both incorrect. I don't see how D is possible. The atom does lose 1 electron, but how it gets 21 is think air.

The answer is B which is exactly what happens.
