QAIPMT-2009-Ph-2151: NEET 2009 Physics - Class 11 AIPMT-2009-Ph-2151 Solution: An engine pumps water continuously through a hose. Water leaves …

An engine pumps water continuously through a hose. Water leaves the hose with a velocity v and m is the mass per unit length of the water jet. What is the rate at which kinetic energy is imparted to water?

Multiple Choice Options

  • A mv3mv^3
  • B 12mv2\frac{1}{2}mv^2
  • C 12m2v2\frac{1}{2}m^2v^2
  • D 12mv3\frac{1}{2}mv^3

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Let m be the mass per unit length, so the rate of mass leaving the hose per sec = mv Rate of kinetic energy K.E = 1 2 ( m v ) v 2 = 1 2 m v 3
