Oil enters a 100-mm-diameter pipe steadily with a velocity of 5 m/s. The gage pressure in the pipe at A and B is 80 kPa. The den
sity of the oil is 900 kg/m3. Neglect gravitational effects. Determine the reaction force exerted on the elbow by the couplings at A and B. Please clearly define the coordinate system and the control volume.

Answer:
1.045 m from 120 kg
Explanation:
m1 = 120 kg
m2 = 420 kg
m = 51 kg
d = 3 m
Let m is placed at a distance y from 120 kg so that the net force on 51 kg is zero.
By use of the gravitational force
Force on m due to m1 is equal to the force on m due to m2.
3 - y = 1.87 y
3 = 2.87 y
y = 1.045 m
Thus, the net force on 51 kg is zero if it is placed at a distance of 1.045 m from 120 kg.
Answer:
The deceleration of the dragster upon releasing the parachute such that the wheels at B are on the verge of leaving the ground is 16.33 m/s²
Explanation:
The additional information to the question is embedded in the diagram attached below:
The height between the dragster and ground is considered to be 0.35 m since is not given ; thus in addition win 0.75 m between the dragster and the parachute; we have: (0.75 + 0.35) m = 1.1 m
Balancing the equilibrium about point A;
F(1.1) - mg (1.25) =
- 1200(9.8)(1.25) = 1200a(0.35)
- 14700 = 420 a ------- equation (1)
--------- equation (2)
Replacing equation 2 into equation 1 ; we have :
1320 a - 14700 = 420 a
1320 a - 420 a =14700
900 a = 14700
a = 14700/900
a = 16.33 m/s²
The deceleration of the dragster upon releasing the parachute such that the wheels at B are on the verge of leaving the ground is 16.33 m/s²
