Areducing elbow in a horizontal pipe is used to deflect water flow by an angle θ = 45° from the flow direction while accelerating it. the elbow discharges water into the atmosphere. the cross-sectional area of the elbow is 150 cm2 at the inlet and 25 cm2 at the exit. the elevation difference between the centers of the exit and the inlet is 40 cm. the mass of the elbow and the water in it is 50 kg. determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place. take the momentum-flux correction factor to be 1.03 at both the inlet and the outlet. the density of water is 1000 kg/m3, and the flow rate of water is 30 kg/s.

Aresearcher plans to conduct a test of hypotheses at the 1% significance level. she designs her study to have a power of 0.90 at a particular alternative value of the parameter of interest. the probability that the researcher will commit a type ii error for the particular alternative value of the parameter at which she computed the power is: a. 0.90. b. 0.01. c. 0.10. d. equal to 1

Chapter 23, problem 075 the figure shows a geiger counter, a device used to detect ionizing radiation (radiation that causes ionization of atoms). the counter consists of a thin, positively charged central wire surrounded by a concentric, circular, conducting cylindrical shell with an equal negative charge. thus, a strong radial electric field is set up inside the shell. the shell contains a low-pressure inert gas. a particle of radiation entering the device through the shell wall ionizes a few of the gas atoms. the resulting free electrons (e) are drawn to the positive wire. however, the electric field is so intense that, between collisions with gas atoms, the free electrons gain energy sufficient to ionize these atoms also. more free electrons are thereby created, and the process is repeated until the electrons reach the wire. the resulting "avalanche" of electrons is collected by the wire, generating a signal that is used to record the passage of the original particle of radiation. suppose the radius of the central wire is 24 âµm, the inner radius of the shell 2.3 cm, and the length of the shell 14 cm. if the electric field at the shell's inner wall is 2.8 ă— 104 n/c, what is the total positive charge on the central wire?

Aperson walks first at a constant speed of 4.89 m/s along a straight line from point a to point b and then back along the line from b to a at a constant speed of 2.95 m/s. what is the average speed over the entire trip?
