A horizontal jet of water is made to hit a vertical wall with a negligible rebound. If the speed of water from the jet is 'v', t

he diameter of the jet is 'd' and the density of water is 'p' , then what is the force exerted on the wall by the jet of water?

F = π/4 ρ d² v²

Explanation:

The formula for force is mass multiplied by acceleration:

F = ma

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over the change in time:

F = m Δv / Δt

Since there is no rebound effect, Δv is equal to v.

F = m v / Δt

Mass can be calculated as density multiplied by volume:

F = ρ V v / Δt

Flow rate describes the volume per time:

F = ρ Q v

Flow rate is determined by velocity multiplied by the cross-sectional area:

F = ρ (v A) v

This simplifies to F = ρ A v²

The area of a circle is calculated as pi times the square of the radius, or as pi/4 times the diameter squared:

F = ρ (π/4 d²) v²

Hence, F = π/4 ρ d² v²

serg [3582]

Answer:

x₂=2×1

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, we can assume that the gravitational potential energy at the lowest point of compression is zero since the kinetic energy change is 0;

mgx-(kx)²/2 =0 where m refers to the object's mass, g indicates the acceleration due to gravity, k denotes spring constant, and x represents the spring's compression.

mgx=(kx)²/2

x=2mg/k----------------compression when the object is at rest

However, ΔK.E =-1/2mv²⇒kx²=mv² -----------where v symbolizes the object's velocity and K.E signifies kinetic energy

Thus, if kx²=mv² then

v=x *√(k/m) ----------------where v=0

<pDoubling v results in multiplying x *√(k/m) by 2, leading to x₂ being double x₁

Calculate the critical angle between glass (n = 1.90) and ice (n = 1.31)? 43° 52° 60° 75°
Maru [3345]
According to Snell’s Law: Where: is the index of refraction of the first medium (glass), and is the index of refraction of the second medium (ice). The angle of incidence and the angle of refraction are represented by and. The refractive index quantifies the speed of light in a medium. The critical angle is identified as the angle at which total internal reflection occurs, meaning no light passes through into another medium. This phenomenon happens only when the light is transitioning from a medium with a higher index of refraction to one with a lower index of refraction.

Question 1
Keith_Richards [3271]

Answer:

1)  g = 4π² / m, 3) on the x-axis we have the pendulum lengths, while the y-axis shows the squared periods.

Explanation:

a) learners can model this system as a simple pendulum, where the angular velocity is given by

         w = √ g / l

Here, angular velocity, frequency, and period are interconnected:

         w = 2π f = 2π / T

Substituting yields:

         T = 2π√ l / g

Using this formula, students can calculate the gravitational acceleration by measuring the period for several pendulum lengths and plotting:

        T² = 4π²  l / g

We plot T² against l.

This represents a linear equation where T² is on the y-axis and l is on the x-axis:

        y = (4π² / g) l

The slope is given by:

         m = 4π² / g

Solving for g gives:

         g = 4π² / m

The slope is determined from the line's values rather than experimental data.

2) To perform the experiment, the string is secured to the sphere, then the pendulum length from the pivot to the sphere's center is measured using a tape measure. A slight angle (less than 10 degrees) is released, allowing the first swing to occur. Generally, the time for several oscillations, usually 10 or 20, is tracked to find the period:

    T = t / n

Next, a table is created comparing T² to the length, plotted with length on the x-axis to find the slope, from which the gravitational acceleration is derived.

3) The independent variable, which is the length of the pendulums, is plotted on the x-axis, while the dependent variable, the squared period, is on the y-axis.

4) Referring to the line equation:

            m = 4π² / g

             resulting in:

            g = 4π² / m

5) Once the spring is cut, the sphere continues to be influenced by gravitational acceleration. The harmonic motion ceases, and the sphere moves vertically.
