If the velocity of the train is v=s/t, where s is the distance and t is time, then v=400/5=80m/s. To get the vertical component of the velocity we need to multiply the velocity v with a sin(α): Vv=v*sin(α), where Vv is the vertical component of the velocity and α is the angle with the horizontal. So:

Vv=80*sin(10)=80*0.1736=13.888 m/s.

So the vertical component of the velocity of the train is Vv=13.888 m/s.

A viscous fluid is flowing through two horizontal pipes. They have the same length, although the radius of one pipe is three tim

Rudik [331]

The conservation of the mass of fluid through two sections (be they A1 and A2) of a conduit (pipe) or current tube establishes that the mass that enters is equal to the mass that exits. Mathematically the input flow must be the same as the output flow,

$Q_1 = Q_2$

The definition of flow is given by

$Q =VA$

Where

V = Velocity

A = Area

The units of the flow of flow are cubic meters per second, that is to say that if there is a continuity, the volume of input must be the same as that of output, what changes if the sections are modified are the proportions of speed.

In this way

$Q_A = Q_B$
