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.

Wittaler [7]
2m/s^2, this is because F=ma, meaning a is also equal to F/m. The car applies 1500N in one direction and outside sources apply a total of -500N, meaning the 500kg car is moving forward with a total of 1000N of force. Taking the total 1000N and dividing it by 500kg gives you and acceleration of 2m/s^2. Hope this helps!

One of your classmates, in a fit of unrestrained ego, jumps onto a lab table:
Anettt [7]

The equilibrium condition allows finding the results for the forces of the system are

      a) The free body diagram is in the attachment

      b) The normal force is N = 737 N

      c) The mass of the table is  10.2 kg

Newton's second law indicates that the net force is proportional to the product of the mass and the acceleration of the bodies, in the special case that the acceleration is zero, it is called the equilibrium condition

          ∑ F = 0

Where the bold letters indicate vectors, F is the external forces

a) A free body diagram is a scheme of the forces without the details of the bodies, in the attachmentt we see a free body diagram of the system.

b) The reaction force of the ground is applied in each of the legs of the table, in general this force has the same magnitude in each leg, therefore in Newton's second law we can place it as a single force

             N = N₁ + N₂ + N₃ + N₄₄

Let's apply the equilibrium condition

                N -  W_m -w_{table} = 0

                N =  W_m +w_{table}

                N = M_m g + w_{table}  

They indicate the pose of the boy is 65 kg, for the weight of the table of a laboratory table is approximately 100 N

                N = 65 9.8 + 100

                N = 737 N

c) To calculate the mass of the table we use the relation

                W = m_{table} g

                m_{table} = \frac{w_{table}}{g}

                m_{tabble}= \frac{100}{9.8}  

               m_{table}e = 10.2 kg

In conclusion using the equilibrium condition we can find the results for the forces are

      a) The free body diagram is in the attachment

      b) The normal force is N = 737 N

      c) The mass of the table is  10.2 kg
