Water flowing through a cylindrical pipe suddenly comes to a section of pipe where the diameter decreases to 86% of its previous

value. If the speed of the water in the larger section of the pipe was what is its speed in this smaller section if the water behaves like an ideal incompressible fluid

Answer:

Explanation:

The speed of the water in the large section of the pipe is not stated

so i will assume 36m/s

(if its not the said speed, input the figure of your speed and you get it right)

Continuity equation is applicable for ideal, incompressible liquids

Q the flux of water that is Av with A the cross section area and v the velocity,

so,

$A_1V_1=A_2V_2$

$A_{1}=\frac{\pi}{4}d_{1}^{2} \\\\ A_{2}=\frac{\pi}{4}d_{2}^{2}$

the diameter decreases 86% so

$d_2 = 0.86d_1$

$v_{2}=\frac{\frac{\pi}{4}d_{1}^{2}v_{1}}{\frac{\pi}{4}d_{2}^{2}}\\\\=\frac{\cancel{\frac{\pi}{4}d_{1}^{2}}v_{1}}{\cancel{\frac{\pi}{4}}(0.86\cancel{d_{1}})^{2}}\\\\\approx1.35v_{1} \\\\v_{2}\approx(1.35)(38)\\\\\approx48.6\,\frac{m}{s}$

Thus, speed in smaller section is 48.6 m/s

You are working on a laboratory device that includes a small sphere with a large electric charge Q. Because of this charged sphe

madam [21]

Answer:

the only effect it has is to create more induced charge at the closest points, but the net face remains zero, so it has no effect on the flow.

Explanation:

We can answer this exercise using Gauss's law

Ф = ∫ e . dA = $q_{int}$ / ε₀

field flow is directly proportionate to the charge found inside it, therefore if we place a Gaussian surface outside the plastic spherical shell. the flow must be zero since the charge of the sphere is equal induced in the shell, for which the net charge is zero. we see with this analysis that this shell meets the requirement to block the elective field

From the same Gaussian law it follows that if the sphere is not in the center, the only effect it has is to create more induced charge at the closest points, but the net face remains zero, so it has no effect on the flow , so no matter where the sphere is, the total induced charge is always equal to the charge on the sphere.

A proton and an electron are held in place on the x axis. The proton is at x = -d, while the electron is at x = +d. They are rel

Over [174]

The protons and electrons are held in place on the x axis.
The proton is at x = -d and the electron is at x = +d. They are released at the same time and the only force that affects movement is the electrostatic force that is applied on both subatomic particles. According to Newton's third law, the force Fpe exerted on protons by the electron is opposite in magnitude and direction to the force Fep exerted on the electron by the proton. That is, Fpe = - Fep. According to Newton's second law, this equation can be written as
Mp * ap = -Me * ae
where Mp and Me are the masses, and ap and ae are the accelerations of the proton and the electron, respectively. Since the mass of the electron is much smaller than the mass of the proton, in order for the equation above to hold, the acceleration of the electron at that moment must be considerably larger than the acceleration of the proton at that moment. Since electrons have much greater acceleration than protons, they achieve a faster rate than protons and therefore first reach the origin.

A 1-m-long monopole car radio antenna operates in the AM frequency of 1.5 MHz. How muchcurrent is required to transmit 4 W of po

Zanzabum

Answer:

The current needed to transmit Power of 4 W is 28.47 A

Solution:

As per the question:

Length of the antenna, $L_{a} = 1 m$

Frequency, $\vartheta = 1.5 MHz = 1.5\times 10^{6} Hz$

Power transmitted, $P_{t} = 4 W$

Now,

For a monopole antenna:

$\lambda_{a} = \frac{c}{\vartheta}$

where

$\lambda_{a}$ = wavelength transmitted by the antenna

c = speed of light in vacuum

$\lambda_{a} = \frac{3\times 10^{8}}{1.5\times 10^{6}} = 200 m$

Now,

Since, the value of $\lambda_{a}$ >> $L_{a}$ thus the monopole is a Hertian monopole.

The resistance is calculated as:

$R = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{dL_{a}}{\lambda_{a}})^{2}\times 80\pi^{2}$

$R = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{200)^{2}\times 80\pi^{2} = 9.869\times 10^{- 3} = 9.869 m\Omega$

$P_{radiated} = P_{t}$

$P_{radiated} = \frac{R}{I^{2}}$

Now, the current I is given by:

$I = \sqrt{\frac{2P_{t}}{R}} = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 4}{9.869\times 10^{- 3}}} = 28.47 A$

Suppose you wanted to hold up an electron against the force of gravity by the attraction of a fixed proton some distance above i

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The value is $r = 5.077 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The Coulomb constant is $k = 9.0 *10^{9} \ N\cdot m^2 /C^2$

The charge on the electron/proton is $e = 1.6*10^{-19} \ C$

The mass of proton $m_{proton} = 1.67*10^{-27} \ kg$

The mass of electron is $m_{electron } = 9.11 *10^{-31} \ kg$

Generally for the electron to be held up by the force gravity

Then

Electric force on the electron = The gravitational Force

i.e

$m_{electron} * g = \frac{ k * e^2 }{r^2 }$

$\frac{9*10^9 * (1.60 *10^{-19})^2 }{r^2 } = 9.11 *10^{-31 } * 9.81$

$r = \sqrt{25.78}$

$r = 5.077 \ m$
