A horizontal water jet at 70˚F issues from a circular orifice in a large tank. The jet strikes a vertical plate that is normal t

o the axis of the jet. A force of 500 lbf is needed to hold the plate in place against the action of the jet. If the pressure in the tank is 90 psig at point A, what is the diameter D of the jet just downstream of the orifice?

In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to Bernoulli's equation and the propulsive force.

Bernoulli's equation is defined by,

\frac{P_A}{\rho g}+\frac{V_A^2}{2g} +z_a = \frac{P_B}{\rho g}+\frac{V_B^2}{2g} +z_B

Where

P = Pressure

v = velocity

z= Heigth

\rho =Density

g = Gravitational Force

We must look for the speed at the exit. Our values are given by,

V_A = 0

P_A = 90Psi=620528Pa

T = 70\°F = 21.11\°C

\rho = 998kg/m^3

Since water is exposed to atmosphere outlet at the end, then P_B = 0

Replacing we have

\frac{P_A}{\rho g}+\frac{V_A^2}{2g} +z_a = \frac{P_B}{\rho g}+\frac{V_B^2}{2g} +z_B

\frac{620528}{998(9.8)}+\frac{0^2}{2(9.8)} +0 = \frac{0}{998(9.81)}+\frac{V_B^2}{2(9.81)} +0

63.4460 = \frac{V_B^2}{2(9.81)}

V_B = \sqrt{2(63.4460)(9.81)}

V_B = 35.28m/s

According to the statement, the required force is given by 500Lbf that is 2224.11N

Based on the propulsive force we have to

F_x = \rho A(V_C+V_B)

Replacing our values,

2224.11 = (998)(\frac{\pi}{4}d^2)(0-35.28^2)

d^2=\frac{4(2224.11)(0-35.28^2)}{(998)\pi}

d^2 = 3531.77

d = 59.42m

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

(a) 17634.24 Ω

(b) 0.0068 A

Explanation:

(a)

The formula for inductive inductance is given as

X' = 2πFL................... Equation 1

Where X' = inductive reactance, F = frequency, L = inductance

Given: F = 60 Hz, L = 46.8 H, π = 3.14

Substitute into equation 1

X' = 2(3.14)(60)(46.8)

X' = 17634.24 Ω

(b)

From Ohm's law,

Vrms = X'Irms

Where Vrms = Rms Voltage, Irms = rms Current.

make Irms the subject of the equation

Irms = Vrms/X'...................... Equation 2

Given: Vrms = 120 V, X' = 17634.24 Ω

Substitute into equation 2

Irms = 120/17634.24

Irms = 0.0068 A

A jet liner must reach a speed of 82 m/s for takeoff. If the
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The acceleration that the jet liner that must have is 2.241 meters per square second.

Explanation:

Let suppose that the jet liner accelerates uniformly. From statement we know the initial (v_{o}) and final speeds (v_{f}), measured in meters per second, of the aircraft and likewise the runway length (d), measured in meters. The following kinematic equation is used to calculate the minimum acceleration needed (a), measured in meters per square second:

a = \frac{v_{f}^{2}-v_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot d}

If we know that v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, v_{f} = 82\,\frac{m}{s} and d = 1500\,m, then the acceleration that the jet must have is:

a = \frac{\left(82\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot (1500\,m)}

a = 2.241\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

The acceleration that the jet liner that must have is 2.241 meters per square second.
