A cubical box, 5.00 cm on each side, is immersed in a fluid. The gauge pressure at the top surface of the box is 594 Pa and the

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The density of the fluid is 1100 kg/m³.

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = 5.00 cm

Pressure at top =594 Pa

Pressure at bottom = 1133 Pa

We need to calculate the change in pressure

Using formula of change in pressure

$\Delta P=P_{b}-P_{t}$

Where, $P_{b}$ = Pressure at bottom

$P_{t}$ = Pressure at top

put the value into the formula

$\Delta P=1133-594$

$\Delta P=539\ Pa$

Using formula of pressure for density

$\Delta P = \rho g h$

$\rho =\dfrac{\Delta P}{gh}$

Where, $\rho$ = density

P = pressure

h = height

Put the value in to the formula

$\rho =\dfrac{539}{5.00\times10^{-2}\times9.8}$

$\rho =1100\ kg/m^3$

Hence, The density of the fluid is 1100 kg/m³.

The leaves of a tree lose water to the atmosphere via the process of transpiration. A particular tree loses water at the rate of

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The speed of the sap flowing in the vessel is 1.90 mm/s

Explanation:

Given:

The rate of water loss, Q = 3 × 10 ⁻⁸ m³/s

Number of vessels contained, n = 2000

Diameter of the vessel, D = 100 Mu m

thus, the radius of the vessel, r = 50 × 10⁻⁶ m

Now, the rate of flow is given as:

Q = AV .............(1)

where, A is the area of the cross-section

V is the velocity

Total area, A = n × (πr²)

substituting the values in the equation (1), we get

3 × 10 ⁻⁸ m³/s = [2000 × (π × (50 × 10⁻⁶)²)] × V

or

V = 1.909 × 10⁻³ m/s or 1.90 mm/s

Hence, the speed of the sap flowing in the vessel is 1.90 mm/s

At its lowest setting a centrifuge rotates with an angular speed of ω1 = 250 rad/s. When it is switched to the next higher setti

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Part(a): The angular acceleration is $5.63~rad~s^{-2}$ .

Part(b): The angular displacement is $2629~rad$ .

Explanation:

Part(a):

If $\omega_{1},~\omega_{2}~and~\alpha$ be the initial angular speed, final angular speed and angular acceleration of the centrifuge respectively, then from rotational kinematic equation, we can write

$\alpha = \dfrac{\omega_{2} - \omega_{1}}{t}......................................................(I)$

where ' $t$ ' is the time taken by the centrifuge to increase its angular speed.

Given, $\omega_{i} = 250~rad~s^{-1}$ , $\omega_{f} = 750~rad~s^{-1}$ and $t = 9.5~s$ . From equation ( $I$ ), the angular acceleration is given by

$\alpha = \dfrac{750 - 250}{9.5}~rad~s^{-2} = 5.63~rad~s^{-2}$

Part(b):

Also the angular displacement ( $\Delta \theta$ ) can be written as

$&&\Delta \theta = \omega_{1}~t + \dfrac{1}{2}\alpha~t^{2}\\&or,& \Delta \theta = (250 \times 9.5 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times 5.63 \times 9.5^{2})~rad = 2629~rad$

Two astronauts of identical mass are connected by a taut cable of negligible mass, as shown in the figure above, and are initial

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The right answer is "The center of mass doesn't move".

Explanation:

It generates a voltage throughout the cable while the astronaut falls on either the wire. At other ends of the spectrum or cable, the tension will be similar. As such, with both astronauts, there would be the same energy, although throughout the opposite way.
Thus, the net force seems to be essentially negative on the machine. And therefore the mass center stays stationary.

José is pinned against the walls of the Rotor, a ride with a radius of 3.00 meters that spins so fast that the floor can be remo

zaharov [31]

r = radius of the circle of the ride = 3.00 meters

v = linear speed of the person during the ride = 17.0 m/s

m = mass of the person in angular motion in the ride

L = angular momentum of the person in the ride = 3570 kg m²/s

Angular momentum is given as

L = m v r

inserting the values

3570 kg m²/s = m (17 m/s) (3.00 m)

m = 3570 kg m²/s/(51 m²/s)

m = 7 kg

hence the mass comes out to be 7 kg
