Answer 1

The value of y' is found to be approximately 0.748 ft.

How to solve

The specific energy, E, in open channel flow, can be calculated using the equation E = [tex]y + Q^2/(2gy^2)[/tex] where y is the depth of flow, Q is the flow rate, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

In this case, Q = y * width * velocity = [tex]2 ft * 5 ft * 7.5 ft/s = 75 ft^3/s.[/tex]

Substituting these values in, the specific energy, E, is found to be E = 2 ft + (75 ft³/s)² / (2 * 32.2 ft/s² * (2 ft)²) = 3.466 ft.

The alternate depth, y', can be found by solving the equation 3.466 ft

= [tex]y' + (75 ft^3/s)^2 / (2 * 32.2 ft/s^2 * (y')^2) for y'.[/tex]

This is a quadratic equation and using the positive root for supercritical flow, y' is found to be approximately 0.748 ft.

[tex]Which point is closer to the line y=1/2x+4, A(-2,6) or B (4,3)?[/tex]

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  neither; they are the same distance from the line

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance of point (x, y) from line ax+by+c=0 is given by ...

  d = |ax +by +c|/(√a² +b²)

Since we're using the same line for both points, we only need to evaluate ...

  d = |ax +by +c|

Subtracting y can put the equation in the desired form:

  1/2x -y +4 = 0

__

For point A, the expression of interest evaluates to ...

  |(1/2)(-2) -(6) +4| = |-1-6+4| = 3

For point B, the expression of interest evaluates to ...

  |(1/2)(4) -(3) +4| = |2-3+4| = 3

These values tell us the points are the same distance from the line.

_____

The attached graph shows that circles of the same radius centered on A and B are both tangent to the line. Hence the distances are the same.

Hours worked: 16
Total price of services: $224

Overhead rate: %

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Labor rate = 8.75 dollars per hour.  

Hours worked = 6

Direct cost of labor = 140 dollars

Total price of services = 224 dollars

Therefore, the overheads = 84 dollars which is

what’s the slope of the line? i’m marking a brainliest!

Answers

Answer:

m = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the slope of the line, we are going to use the 2-points slope equation form

That will be;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(x1,y1) = (-5,11)

(x2,y2) = (8,-15)

m = (-15-11)/(8-(-5)) = -26/13 = -2

The possible mistake she might have made is placing the x-values difference over the y and her formula will look like;

m = (x2-x1)/(y2-y1)

It is an error of switching the numerator for the denominator

if the diagonal of the square is 8 feet what is the area of the square

Answers

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use pythagorean theorem for this, where a and b represent the 2 sides while c represents the hypoteneuse.

a²+b²=c²

If the diagonal of a square is 8, it divides the square into 2 triangles, both with a hypoteneuse of 8. Since it is a square, that means the other 2 sides will have equal lengths. So input 8 into the equation:

a²+b²=8²

a²+b²=64

Then you can change a and b into the same variable, since you know they will be equal due to you working with a square.

a²+a²=64

simplify: 2a²=64

divide both sides by 2: a²= 32

square root both sides: a = [tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex]

then you know the length of each side is [tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex]

to find the area of a square, you must multiply both sides by each other, so do [tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex]*[tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex], which will give you 32 since you are essentially doing this:

[tex](\sqrt{32})^2[/tex] in which the square and square root cancel out.

Nathan launches a water balloon vertically from a platform on his roof. The height of the balloon (in feet) is represented by the equation h=−16t2+28.7t+32.4, where t is the time (in seconds) after he launches the water balloon. What is the maximum height of the balloon?

Answers

Answer:

45.27feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the balloon (in feet) represented by the equation h=−16t2+28.7t+32.4, where t is the time (in seconds)

Note that the velocity of the balloon at maximum height is zero, hence;

v = dh/dt =0

-32t+28.7 = 0

-32t = -28.7

t = 28.7/32

t = 0.897secs

Get the maximum height

Recall that h=−16t²+28.7t+32.4

h = -16(0.897)²+28.7(0.897)+32.4

h= -12.87+25.74+32.4

h = 45.27feet

Hence the maximum height reached is 45.27feet
