A student team is to design a human powered submarine for a design competition. The overall length of the prototype submarine is

2.24 m, and its student designers hope that it can travel fully submerged through water at 0.560 m/s. The water is freshwater (a lake) at T = 15°C. The design team builds a one-eighth scale model to test in their university’s wind tunnel. A shield surrounds the drag balance strut so that the aerodynamic drag of the strut itself does not influence the measured drag. The air in the wind tunnel is at 25°C and at one standard atmosphere pressure. At what air speed do they need to run the wind tunnel in order to achieve similarity?
The students from the previous problem measure the aerodynamic drag on their model submarine in the wind tunnel. They are careful to run the wind tunnel at conditions that ensure similarity with the prototype submarine. Their measured drag force is 2.3 N. Estimate the drag force on the prototype submarine at the conditions given in Problem #3

Answer:

a) The speed is 61.42 m/s

b) The drag force is 10.32 N

Explanation:

a) The Reynold´s number for the model and prototype is:

Re_{m} =\frac{p_{m}V_{m}L_{m}   }{u_{m} }

Re_{p} =\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p}   }{u_{p} }

Equaling both Reynold's number:

\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p}   }{u_{p} }=\frac{p_{m}V_{m}L_{m}   }{u_{m} }

Clearing Vm:

V_{m} =\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p} u_{m}   }{u_{p} p_{m} L_{m} }=\frac{999.1*0.56*8*1.849x10^{-5} }{1.138x10^{-3}*1.184*1 } =61.42m/s

b) The drag force is:

\frac{F_{Dm} }{p_{m}V_{m}^{2}L_{m}^{2}     } =\frac{F_{Dp} }{p_{p}V_{p}^{2}L_{p}^{2}     } \\F_{Dp} =\frac{F_{Dp}p_{p}V_{p}^{2}L_{p}^{2} }{p_{m}V_{m}^{2}L_{m}^{2}     } \\F_{Dp}=\frac{2.3*999.1*0.56^{2} *8^{2} }{1.184*61.42^{2}*1^{2}  } =10.32N

Answer:

1. The air speed at which wind tunnel should be ran in order to achieve similarity = 61.423 m/s

2. The drag force on the prototype submarine at the conditions given above = 10.325 N.

Explanation:

1. Here we have

Density of water at 15 °C = 999.1 kg/m³

Density of air at 25 °C = 1.184 kg/m³

\mu_{Water} at 15 °C = 1.138 × 10⁻³ kg/(m·s)

\mu_{Air} at 25 °C = 1.849 × 10⁻⁵ kg/(m·s)    

The formula is

\frac{V_m\times \rho_m \times L_m}{\mu_m} = \frac{V_p\times \rho_p \times L_p}{\mu_p}

Where:

V_m = Velocity of the model =

\rho_m = Density of the model medium at the medium temperature = 1.184 kg/m³

L_m = Length of the model = 1/8 × L_p = 0.28 m

\mu_m = Dynamic viscosity of model medium at the model medium temperature = 1.849 × 10⁻⁵ kg/(m·s)

V_p = Velocity of the prototype = 0.560 m/s

\rho_p = Density of the prototype medium at the medium temperature = 999.1 kg/m³

L_p = Length of the prototype = 2.24 m

\mu_p = Dynamic viscosity of prototype medium at the prototype medium temperature 1.138 × 10⁻³ kg/(m·s)

Therefore

{V_m}{} = \frac{V_p\times \rho_p \times L_p \times \mu_m}{\mu_p\times \rho_m \times L_m}

{V_m}{} = \frac{0.560\times 999.1  \times 2.24 \times 1.849 \times 10^{-5}}{1.138 \times 10^{-3}\times 1.184 \times 0.28} =  61.423 m/s

The air speed at which wind tunnel should be ran in order to achieve similarity = 61.423 m/s

2. The drag force on the prototype is given by    

F_{D.p} = F_{D.m}(\frac{\rho_p}{\rho_m} )( \frac{V_p}{V_m})^2  ( \frac{L_p}{L_m})^2\\

Where:

F_{D.p} = Drag force of the prototype

F_{D.m} = Drag force of the model

F_{D.p} =2.3(\frac{999.1 }{1.184} )( \frac{0.560 }{61.423 })^2  ( \frac{2.24 }{0.28})^2\\ =   10.325 N

The drag force on the prototype submarine at the conditions given above = 10.325 N.

Two balls are rolling using the same force. Which law explains why the bowling ball will roll a shorter distance than a soccer b
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

newton's 2nd  law

Explanation:

In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

3. (Solids, Liquids) have no definite shape, but definite volume.<br> A)Solids <br> B)Liquids
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

b liquids

Explanation:

this is because liquids take the shape of  their container while solids stay solid and do not change shape and solids, liquids and gases all have definite volume.
