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.

What is the process called in which water vapor and carbon dioxide retain heat?
saw5 [17]

The process in which water vapour and carbon dioxide traps heat is called the “greenhouse effect”.

 

The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon which occurs every day. To illustrate an example of this natural phenomenon, d<span>uring the day the Sun shines through the atmosphere. Earth's surface warms up because of the sunlight. Meanwhile at night in the absence of the sunlight, Earth's surface cools back and releasing the heat back into the air. However some of the heat is retained by the greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide and water vapour) in the atmosphere. This process what keeps our planet Earth warm and cozy at an average temperature of 16°C.</span>

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

frequency of the sound = f = 1,030.3 Hz

phase difference = Φ = 229.09°

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data:

Xini = 0.540m

Xfin = 0.870m

v = 340m/s

Step 2: frequency of the sound (f)

f = v / λ

λ = Xfin - Xini = 0.870 - 0.540 = 0.33

f = 340 / 0.33

f = 1,030.3 Hz

Step 3: phase difference

phase difference = Φ

Φ = (2π/λ)*(Xini - λ) = (2π/0.33)* (0.540-0.33) = 19.04*0.21 = 3.9984

Φ = 3.9984 rad * (360°/2π rad)

Φ = 229.09°

Hope this helps!
