the flow energy of 124 L/min of a fluid passing a boundary to a system is 108.5 kJ/min. Determine the pressure at this point

serg [3582]

Answer:

The pressure measured at this moment is 0.875 mPa

Explanation:

Given that,

Flow energy = 124 L/min

Boundary to system P= 108.5 kJ/min

$P=1.81\ kW$

We are tasked with finding the pressure here

Applying the pressure formula

$P=F\times v$

$P=A_{1}P_{1}\times v_{1}$

Here, $A_{1}v_{1}=Q_{1}$

Where, v refers to velocity

Insert the values into the equation

$1.81 =P_{1}\times0.124\times\dfrac{1}{60}$

$P_{1}=\dfrac{1.81\times60}{0.124}$

$P_{1}=875.80\ kPa$

$P_{1}=0.875\ mPa$

Therefore, the pressure at this moment is 0.875 mPa

When listening to tuning forks of frequency 256 Hz and 260 Hz, one hears the following number of beats per second. (A) 0 (B) 2 (

inna [3103]

The answer is (C) 4 beats per second. The number of beats is computed as the difference between the frequencies of the two tuning forks. Plugging in the frequency values yields a result. Thus, the number of observable beats per second will be 4.

An archer fires an arrow, which produces a muffled "thwok" as it hits a target. If the archer hears the "thwok" exactly 1 s afte

Ostrovityanka [3204]

Answer:

35.79 meters

Explanation:

We have an archer, and there is a target. Denote the distance between them as d.

The bowman releases the arrow, which travels the distance d at a velocity of 40 m/s until it hits the target. We establish the equation as:

$v_{arrow} * t_{arrow} = d\\ \\40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = d$

Right after this, the arrow produces a muffled noise, traveling the same distance d at a speed of 340 m/s in time $t_{sound}$ . Thus, we can derive:

$v_{sound} * t_{sound} = d\\ \\340 \frac{m}{s} * t_{sound} = d$ .

Consequently, the sound reaches the archer, precisely 1 second post-firing the bow, resulting in:

$t_{arrow} + t _{sound} = 1 s$ .

Using this relationship in the distance formula for sound allows us to write:

$340 \frac{m}{s} * t_{sound} = d \\ \\ 340 \frac{m}{s} * (1 s- t_{arrow}) = d$ .

Substituting the value of d from the first equation yields:

$40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = d \\ 40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = 340 \frac{m}{s} * (1 s- t_{arrow})$ .

Now, after some calculations, we can proceed further:

$40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = 340 \frac{m}{s} * 1 s - 340 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} \\ \\ 40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} + 340 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = 340 m \\ \\ 380 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = 340 m \\ \\ t_{arrow} = \frac{340 m}{380 \frac{m}{s}} \\ \\ t_{arrow} = 0.8947 s$ .

Finally, the value is inserted into the initial equation:

$40 \frac{m}{s} * t_{arrow} = d$

$40 \frac{m}{s} * 340/380 s = 35,79 s = d$

A merry-go-round with a a radius of R = 1.63 m and moment of inertia I = 196 kg-m2 is spinning with an initial angular speed of

serg [3582]

Answer:

1) L = 299.88 kg-m²/s

2) L = 613.2 kg-m²/s

3) L = 499.758 kg-m²/s

4) ω₁ = 0.769 rad/s

5) Fc = 70.3686 N

6) v = 1.2535 m/s

7) ω₀ = 1.53 rad/s

Explanation:

Given

R = 1.63 m

I₀ = 196 kg-m²

ω₀ = 1.53 rad/s

m = 73 kg

v = 4.2 m/s

1) What is the magnitude of the initial angular momentum of the merry-go-round?

We utilize the formula

L = I₀*ω₀ = 196 kg-m²*1.53 rad/s = 299.88 kg-m²/s

2) What is the angular momentum magnitude of the person 2 meters prior to jumping onto the merry-go-round?

The equation we apply is

L = m*v*Rp = 73 kg*4.2 m/s*2.00 m = 613.2 kg-m²/s

3) What is the angular momentum of the person just before she hops onto the merry-go-round?

We utilize the formula

L = m*v*R = 73 kg*4.2 m/s*1.63 m = 499.758 kg-m²/s

4) What is the angular velocity of the merry-go-round after the individual jumps on?

We can apply the Principle of Conservation of Angular Momentum

L in = L fin

⇒ I₀*ω₀ = I₁*ω₁

where

I₁ = I₀ + m*R²

⇒ I₀*ω₀ = (I₀ + m*R²)*ω₁

At this point, we can determine ω₁

⇒ ω₁ = I₀*ω₀ / (I₀ + m*R²)

⇒ ω₁ = 196 kg-m²*1.53 rad/s / (196 kg-m² + 73 kg*(1.63 m)²)

⇒ ω₁ = 0.769 rad/s

5) Once the merry-go-round moves at this new angular speed, what force must the person exert to hold on?

We must calculate the centripetal force as follows

Fc = m*ω²*R

⇒ Fc = 73 kg*(0.769 rad/s)²*1.63 m = 70.3686 N

6) When the person is halfway around, they choose to simply release their hold on the merry-go-round to exit the ride.

What is the linear speed of the person the moment they exit the merry-go-round?

we can apply the equation

v = ω₁*R = 0.769 rad/s*1.63 m = 1.2535 m/s

7) What is the angular velocity of the merry-go-round after the individual releases their hold?

ω₀ = 1.53 rad/s

It returns to its original angular speed
