Water at a gauge pressure of 3.8 atm at street level flows in to an office building at a speed of 0.06 m/s through a pipe 5.0 cm

in diameter. The pipes taper down to 2.6cm in diameter by the top floor, 20 m above. Calculate the flow velocity and the gauge pressure in such a pipe on the top floor. Assume no branch pipe and ignore viscosity.

Answer:

The flow velocity in such a pipe at the top floor is v₂=  2.21m/s

The gauge pressure in such a pipe at the top floor is P₂= 1.8atm

..

Explanation:

The gauge pressure at the street:  P₁=3.8atm=3.8 *10^{5} pa=

The velocity of water  v₁=0.60m/s

The diameter of pipe:  d₁=50mm=50 * 10^{-3} m

The diameter of pipe after taper:  d₂=2.6cm=2.6*10^{-2}m

By using the continuity equation,

A₁v₁=A₂v₂ - - - - - - - -(1)

Here,  A₁  is the cross sectional area of the pipe, and  

A₂  is the cross-sectional area of pipe by top floor.

Substitute the values in equation 1,

\frac{\pi }{4}d₁²v₁=\frac{\pi }{4}d₂²v₂

v₂=d₁²v₁ /d₂²

Substitute the values in above equation,

v₂=\frac{0.6 * (50 *10^{-3} )^{2}}{(2.6 *10^{-2}) ^{2} }

v₂=\frac{1500*10^{-6} }{6.76 * 10 ^{-4} }

v₂=2.21m/s

The flow meter is 2.21m/s

By using Bernoulli's principle,  

ρ(v  ₁²/2)+ρgh₁+P₁=ρ(v₂²/2)+ρgh₂+P₂

Here,  

ρ  is the density of the water,  

h₁ is the elevation of the pipe at the street,  

h₂ is the elevation of the pipe by the top floor.

Arrange the equation in terms of gauge pressure,

ρ(v  ₁²/2)  +  ρgh₁  +  P₁=  ρ(v₂²/2) +  ρgh₂  +  P₂

P₂=P₁+ (ρ/2) (v₁²-v₂²) - ρgh₂

Substitute the values in above equation,

P₂=3.8*10^{5} -2262.05-196000

P₂=181737.95Pa=1.8atm

The gauge pressure in a pipe at the top floor is  1.8atm

.

Answer:

a) Flow velocity = = 0.222 m/s

b) Gauge pressure = 1.84 atm

Explanation:

P₁ = 3.8 atm = 3.8 * 10⁵ Pa

v₁ = 0.06 m/s

d₁ = 5.0 cm

r₁ = 5/2 = 2.5 cm

At the gauge pressure, the water was at street level, h₁ = 0 m

d₂ = 2.6 cm

r₂ = 2.6/2 = 1.3 cm

h₂ = 20 m

Density of water, \rho = 1000 kg/m^{3}

Assumptions: Flow is steady and laminar, no viscosity, no branch pipe

a) calculate the flow velocity

To calculate the flow velocity, use the continuity equation

A₁v₁ = A₂v₂.............(1)

A₁ = πr²₁ = π(2.5)² = 6.25 π

A₂ = πr²₂ = π(1.3)² = 1.69π

Substituting the appropriate values into equation (1)

6.25 π * 0.06 = 1.69π * v₂

v₂ = 0.375/1.69

v₂ = 0.222 m/s

b) Calculate the gauge pressure

Using the Bernoulli equation:

\frac{P_{1} }{\rho g} + \frac{v_{1} ^{2} }{2g}  + h_{1} = \frac{P_{2} }{\rho g} + \frac{v_{2} ^{2} }{2g}  + h_{2}

\frac{3.8 * 10^{5}  }{1000 *9.8} + \frac{0.06 ^{2} }{2*9.8}  + 0 = \frac{P_{2} }{1000*9.8} + \frac{0.22^{2} }{2*9.8}  + 20

18.77322* 9800 = P_{2} \\P_{2}  = 183977.6 Pa

P_{2} = 1.84 atm

A plane travels down a runway 2750 m before it lifts off at an angle of 37 degrees from the horizontal. The plane has traveled 1
ss7ja [257]

Answer: 4.236km

Explanation:

Let's define the point (x, y) as:

x = horizontal distance moved.

y = vertical distance moved.

If the plane starts in the point (0, 0) then:

"A plane travels down a runway 2750 m before it lifts off..."

At this time, the position will be:

P = (0 + 2750m, 0) = (2750m, 0).

"it lifts off at an angle of 37 degrees from the horizontal. The plane has traveled 1.8 km since its wheels left the ground."

In this case, as the angle is measured from the horizontal, the components will be:

x = 1.8km*cos(37°) = 1.438km

y = 1.8km*sin(37°) =  1.083 km

Then the new position is:

P = (2750m + 1.438 km, 0 + 1.083 km)

Let's write it using the same units for all the quantities:

we know that

1km = 1000m

Then:

2750m = (2750/1000) km = 2.750 km.

Then we can write the new position as:

P = (2.750 km + 1.438km, 1.083km) = (4.188km, 1.083km)

Now, we define the displacement as the distance between the final position and the initial position.

The distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is:

D = √( (a  c)^2 + (b - d)^2)

In this case the points are:

(0, 0) for the initial position

(4.188km, 1.083km) for the final position.

And the displacement will be:

D = √( (4.188km - 0)^2 + (1.083 - 0)^2) = 4.236km
