A large, cylindrical water tank with diameter 2.40 m is on a platform 2.00 m above the ground. The vertical tank is open to the

air and the depth of the water in the tank is 2.00 m. There is a hole with diameter 0.520 cm in the side of the tank just above the bottom of the tank. The hole is plugged with a cork. You remove the cork and collect in a bucket the water that flows out the hole. a) When 1.00 gal of water flows out of the tank, what is the change in the height of the water in the tank?
b) How long does it take you to collect 1.00 gal of water in the bucket?

Answer:

a.  h₁ =0.0008m = 0.8mm is the height of water that flow out

the change in height of water in the tank = h - h₁ = 2 - 0.0008 = 1.9992m

b.    t =31.93 sec

Explanation:

a) When 1.00 gal of water flows out of the tank, what is the change in the height of the water in the tank?

given:,

cylindrical water tank with diameter, D - 2.40 m

the tank is 2.00 m above the ground.

depth of the water in the tank is 2.00 m.

diameter of hole, d - 0.520 cm

firstly, we need to calculate the volume of water in the tank:

Volume = πr²h

              =(pi * D * D)/4  * height of water

              =(3.142 * 2.4 * 2.4)/4  * 2 = 4.52*2 = 9.05m³

1.0 gal of water is equivalent to = 0.0038m³

the volume of 1gal is 0.0038 = A *h

the area of the tank is calculated above as 4.52m²

therefore, 0.0038 = 4.52 *h

                    h₁ =0.0008m = 0.8mm is the height of water that flow out

the change in height of water in the tank = h - h₁ = 2 - 0.0008 = 1.9992m

b) How long does it take you to collect 1.00 gal of water in the bucket?

1.0 gal of water is equivalent to = 0.0038m³

to calculate for Volume flow, Q for a draining tank

       Q = Cd * A *\sqrt{2gH}

where Cd is a discharge coefficient, and is given by 0.9 for water

A is the area of the small hole = (pi * D * D)/4 = (pi * 0.0052 * 0.0052)/4

          A = 0.0000212m²

H= height of the hole from the tank water level= 2m - 0.0052 = 1.9948m

g = 9.8m/s2

 Q = 0.9 * 0.0000212 *\sqrt{2*9.8 * 1.9948}

 Q = 0.0000191 * 6.253 = 0.000119 m³/s

 Q = V/t

 Qt = V

   t = V/Q = 0.0038m³/0.000119 m³/s

   t =31.93 sec

Two 8.0 Ω lightbulbs are connected in a 12 V series circuit. What is the power of both glowing bulbs?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

18 W

Explanation:

Applying,

P = V²/R.................. Equation 1

Where P = Power of both glowing bulbs, V = Voltage, R = Combined Resistance of both bulbs

Since: It is a series circuit,

Then,

R = R1+R2............. Equation 2

Where R1= Resistance of the first bulb, R2 = Resistance of the second bulb

Given: R1 = R2 = 8 Ω

Substitute into equation 1

R = 8+8

R = 16 Ω

Also Given: V = 12 V

Substitute into equation 1

P = 12²/8

P = 144/8

P = 18 W

A 4kg block is sliding on a horizontal frictionless floor at a speed of 2.5ms and runs into a horizontal spring. The spring has
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mas of block m=4\ kg

speed of block v=2.5\ m/s

spring constant k=30\ N-m

As the mass collides with the spring its kinetic energy is converted to the Elastic Potential energy of the spring

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

x=v\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

x=2.5\times \sqrt{\frac{4}{30}}

x=0.912\ m

Technician a says that using a pressure transducer and lab scope is a similar process to using a vacuum gauge. technician b says
Phantasy [73]

Answer: Both Technician A and B

Explanation:

There is a similar process in using a pressure transducer and lab scope to using a vacuum gauge.

And also, the pressure transducer can be used to tie any issues to individual cylinders if paired with a second trace consisting of the ignition pattern. Therefore, both Technician A and B are correct.
