What is the value of the thickness of the boundary layer at leading edge of the plate?

1 answer:

7 0

Along the flow direction, the boundary layer's thickness varies. For ReT values between 260 and 780, the boundary layer thickness—defined as the depth at which the normalized concentration has a value of 1/e—ranges between 800 and 250 m.

<h3>What is the Boundary layer?</h3>

A boundary layer is the thin layer of fluid that forms immediately around a bounded surface in physics and fluid mechanics as a result of the fluid flowing along the surface.
A no-slip boundary condition is created as a result of the fluid and wall interaction (zero velocity at the wall).
After that, the flow velocity above the surface steadily rises until it reaches the bulk flow velocity again.
The term "velocity boundary layer" refers to the thin layer of fluid whose velocity has not yet recovered to that of the main flow.

<h3>What purpose does a boundary layer serve?</h3>

Because it is on the fluid's boundary, engineers refer to this layer as the boundary layer.
Many aerodynamics issues, such as wing stall, skin friction drag on an object, and the heat transfer that takes place in high-speed flight, depend heavily on the specifics of the flow within the boundary layer.

A boat is able to move through still water at 20 m/s. It makes a round trip to a town 3.0 km upstream. If the river flows at 5m/

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Option e) 320 s

Explanation:

Here, distance = 3.0 km = 3000 m

The velocity of boat when it is going upstream;

Upstream velocity = velocity of boat in still water - velocity of river flow

So, Upstream velocity $=20m/s-5m/s=15m/s$

So,Time to go upstream

$(t_{1}) =\frac{Distance}{Velocity}=\frac{3000m}{15m/s} =200 s$

The velocity of boat when it is going downstream;

Downstream velocity = velocity of boat in still water + velocity of river flow

So, Downstream velocity $=20m/s+5m/s=25m/s$

So,Time to go downstream

$(t_{2}) =\frac{Distance}{Velocity}=\frac{3000m}{25m/s} =120 s$

So, total time (t) = $t_{1}+t_{2}=200s+120 s=320s$

Option E is the correct answer.

How can humidity be used to predict if it is going to rain?

postnew [5]

1. Humidity cannot be used to predict rain.
2. I'm pretty sure it's weather but I'm not 100% sure. Maybe like 89% sure.

3. Tempurature doesn't affect humidity.

4. Not sure but I think its the 3rd one

An open pipe of length 0.39m vibrates in the third harmonic with a frequency of 1400Hz. What is the distance from the center of

Gnoma [55]

Length of the pipe = 0.39 m

Third harmonic frequency = 1400 Hz

For the third harmonic:

Wavelength = $\frac{2L}{3}$

The center of the open pipe will host a node and the nearest anti - node from the center will be at the 0.25 × wavelength

Distance from center = 0.25 × wavelength

Distance = $0.25 x \frac{2L}{3}$

Plugging the value of the length of the pipe (L) = 0.39 m = 39 cm

Distance = $0.25 x \frac{2 \times 39}{3}$

Distance from the center to the nearest anti - node = 6.5 cm

Hence, the nearest distance to the anti - node from the center = 6.5 cm

So, option C is correct.

An Astronaut lands on an Earthlike planet and drops a small lead ball with a mass from the top of her spaceship. The point of re

bearhunter [10]

First we have to find out the gravity on that planet. We use Newton second equation of motion. It is given as,

s = ut +(gt^2)/2

Distance s = 25m

Time t = 5 s

Velocity u = 0

By putting these values,

25 = 1/2.g.(5)²

g = 2

So the gravity on that planet is 2. Lets find out the weight of the astronaut.

Mass of the astronaut on earth m = 80 kg

Weight of astronaut on earth W = mg = (80)(9.8) = 784 N

Weight of astronaut on earth like planet = (80)(2) = 160 N

x = 160N
