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.

Solar cells are often coated with a transparent, thin film of silicon monoxide (n = 1.45) to minimize reflective losses from the
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

94.82 nm

Explanation:

We have given that wavelength \lambda=550\ nm

We have to find the minimum film thickness that produces the least reflection

minimum thickness is given by t=\frac{\lambda }{4n}

here n is given n=1.45

so minimum thickness t=\frac{550 }{4\times 1.45}=94.82\ nm

so the minimum film thickness will be 94.82 nm

on a distant planet a freely falling object has an acceleration of 20 m/s.^2 what speed will a body dropped from rest on his pla
N76 [4]

Answer:

30 m/s

Explanation:

Vf = ?

Vi = 0 m/s

a = 20 m/s^2

t = 1.5 s

Plug those values into the equation: Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 + (20)(1.5)

Vf = 30 m/s
