Bernoulli's equation at a point on the streamline is
p/ρ + v²/(2g) = constant
where
p = pressure
v = velocity
ρ = air density, 0.075 lb/ft³ (under standard conditions)
g = 32 ft/s²

Point 1:
p₁ = 2.0 lb/in² = 2*144 = 288 lb/ft²
v₁ = 150 ft/s

Point 2 (stagnation):
The velocity at the stagnation point is zero.

The density stays constant.
Let p₂ denote the pressure at the stagnation location.
Then,
p₂ = ρ(p₁/ρ + v₁²/(2g))
p₂ = (288 lb/ft²) + [(0.075 lb/ft³)*(150 ft/s)²]/[2*(32 ft/s²)
     = 314.37 lb/ft²
     = 314.37/144 = 2.18 lb/in²

Thus, the answer is 2.2 psi

Determine the sign (+ or −) of the torque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps, the sign of the weight of the forearm,
Sav [3153]
1. τbiceps = +(Positive) 2. τforearm = -(Negative) 3. τball = -(Negative) Explanation: The attached figure illustrates the following: 1. For the biceps, τbiceps indicates that torque is calculated as Torque = r x F, where r and F are vectors. Here, r corresponds to the vector from the elbow to the biceps. In the figure, the force from the biceps is directed upwards. Applying the right-hand rule from r to F results in counterclockwise torque, which is considered positive (+). 2. The torque related to the weight of the forearm, τforearm, uses the same torque formula, with r being the vector from the elbow to the forearm. The weight acts downward, causing a clockwise torque that is negative (-). 3. Similarly, for the weight of the ball, τball, the downward force from the ball's weight generates a clockwise torque, which also registers as negative (-).

A positive point charge q is placed at the center of an uncharged metal sphere insulated from the ground. The outside of the sph
Softa [3030]
B. The charge on A is -q; B has no charge. Given that a positive charge is situated at the center of an uncharged metallic sphere which is insulated and disconnected from the ground, a negative charge (-q) will appear on the inner surface A of the sphere. Should the exterior surface B be grounded, it will become neutral, resulting in no charge remaining on surface B.

The drawing shows an adiabatically isolated cylinder that is divided initially into two identical parts by an adiabatic partitio
Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

the temperature on the left side is 1.48 times greater than that on the right

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

\gamma = 5/3

T1 = 525 K

T2 = 275 K

It is known that

P_1 = \frac{nRT_1}{v}

P_2 = \frac{nrT_2}{v}

n and v are constant on both sides. Therefore we have

\frac{P_1}{P_2} = \frac{T_1}{T_2} = \frac{525}{275} = \frac{21}{11}

P_1 = \frac{21}{11} P_2..............1

let the final pressure be P and the temperature T_1 {f} and T_2 {f}

P_1^{1-\gamma} T_1^{\gamma} = P^{1 - \gamma}T_1 {f}^{\gamma}

P_1^{-2/3} T_1^{5/3} = P^{-2/3} T_1 {f}^{5/3}..................2

similarly

P_2^{-2/3} T_2^{5/3} = P^{-2/3} T_2 {f}^{5/3}.............3

divide equation (2) by equation (3)

\frac{21}{11}^{-2/3} \frac{21}{11}^{5/3} = [\frac{T_1 {f}}{T_2 {f}}]^{5/3}

T_1 {f} = 1.48 T_2 {f}

thus, the left side temperature equals 1.48 times the right side temperature

A uniform magnetic field makes an angle of 30o with the z axis. If the magnetic flux through a 1.0 m2 portion of the xy plane is
Yuliya22 [3333]

Response:

(b) 10 Wb

Clarification:

Given;

angle of the magnetic field, θ = 30°

initial area of the plane, A₁ = 1 m²

initial magnetic flux through the plane, Φ₁ = 5.0 Wb

The equation for magnetic flux is;

Φ = BACosθ

where;

B denotes the magnetic field strength

A represents the area of the plane

θ is the inclination angle

Φ₁ = BA₁Cosθ

5 = B(1 x cos30)

B = 5/(cos30)

B = 5.7735 T

Next, calculate the magnetic flux through a 2.0 m² section of the same plane:

Φ₂ = BA₂Cosθ

Φ₂ = 5.7735 x 2 x cos30

Φ₂ = 10 Wb

<pHence, the magnetic flux through a 2.0 m² area of the same plane is 10 Wb.

Option "b"
