"if a stream flow measures 12 meters in 60 seconds, what is the stream's average rate of flow?"

1 answer:

7 0

Discharge is the volume of water moving down a stream or river per unit of time, commonly expressed in cubic feet per second or gallons per day. In general, river discharge is computed by multiplying the area of water in a channel cross section by the average velocity of the water in that cross section: discharge = area * velocity. In this case, the answer is 0.2 m/s.

Three disks are spinning independently on the same axle without friction. Their respective rotational inertias and angular speed

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

3/7 ω

Explanation:

Initial momentum = final momentum

I(-ω) + (2I)(3ω) + (4I)(-ω/2) = (I + 2I + 4I) ωnet

-Iω + 6Iω - 2Iω = 7I ωnet

3Iω = 7I ωnet

ωnet = 3/7 ω

The final angular velocity will be 3/7 ω counterclockwise.

Consider the following spectrum where two colorful lines (A and B) are positioned on a dark background. The violet end of the sp

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

This type of spectrum is called line emission spectrum . Because it consists of lines . It is emission spectrum because it is due to emission of radiation from a source .

b ) The wavelength of a photon is inversely proportional to its energy . Photon due to transition between n = 1 and n = 3 will have higher energy than

that due to transition between n = 2 and n = 5 . So the later photon ( B) will have greater wavelength or photon due to transition between n = 2 and n = 5 will have greater wavelength .

In a house the temperature at the surface of a window is 28.9 °C. The temperature outside at the window surface is 7.89 °C. Heat

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

-13.18°C

Explanation:

To develop the problem it is necessary to consider the concepts related to the thermal conduction rate.

Its definition is given by the function

$\frac{Q}{t} = \frac{kA\Delta T}{d}$

Where,

Q = The amount of heat transferred

t = time

k = Thermal conductivity constant

A = Cross-sectional area

$\Delta T =$ The difference in temperature between one side of the material and the other

d= thickness of the material

The problem says that there is a loss of heat twice that of the initial state, that is

$Q_2 = 2*Q_1$

Replacing,

$kA\frac{\Delta T_m}{x} = 2*kA\frac{\Delta T}{x}$

$\frac{\Delta T}{x}=2*\frac{\Delta T}{x}$

$\frac{T_i-T_o}{x} = 2\frac{T_1-T_2}{x}$

$\frac{28.9-T_o}{x} = 2\frac{28.9-7.86}{x}$

Solvinf for $T_o$ ,

$T_o = -13.18$

Therefore the temprature at the outside windows furface when the heat lost per second doubles is -13.18°C

A glass beaker of unknown mass contains of water. The system absorbs of heat and the temperature rises as a result. What is the

kakasveta [241]

From the information provided in the question, the mass of the beaker is 144.4 g.

From the information provided in the complete question;

volume of water = 74 mL

Mass of water = 74 g

specific heat of glass = 0.18 cal/g ∙ °C

specific heat of water = 1.0 cal/g ∙ C°

Mass of glass = x g

Total heat gained by the system = 2000.0cal

Temperature rise = 20.0°C

Heat gained by system = Heat gained by glass + Heat gained by water

Heat gained by glass = x × 0.18 × 20

Heat gained by water = 74 × 1.0 × 20

Hence;

2000 = (x × 0.18 × 20) + ( 74 × 1.0 × 20)

2000 - 1480 = (x × 0.18 × 20)

x = 520/3.6

x = 144.4 g

Missing parts;

A glass beaker of unknown mass contains 74.0 ml of water. The system absorbs 2000.0cal of heat and the temperature rises 20.0°C as a result. What is the mass of the beaker? The specific heat of glass is 0.18

cal/g °C, and that of water is 1.0 cal/g °C.

frez [133]

(u) = 20 m/s
(v) = 0 m/s
 (t) = 4 s

0 = 20 + a(4)

4 x a = -20

so, the answer is -5 m/s^2. or -5 meter per second
