A Venturi tube may be used as a fluid flowmeter. Suppose the device is used at a service station to measure the flow rate of gas

oline (p = 660 kg/m³) through a hose having an outlet radius of 2.80 cm. If the difference in pressure is measured to be P1 - P2 = 1.20 kPa and the radius of the inlet tube to the meter is 1.40 cm.(a) Find the speed of the gasoline as it leaves the hose.(b) Find the fluid flow rate in cubic meters per second.

Answer

given,

flow rate = p = 660 kg/m³

outer radius = 2.8 cm

P₁ - P₂ = 1.20 k Pa

inlet radius = 1.40 cm

using continuity equation

 A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

 π r₁² v₁ = π r₁² v₂

 v_1= \dfrac{r_1^2}{r_2^2} v_2

 v_1= \dfrac{1.4^2}{2.8^2} v_2

 v_1= 0.25 v_2

Applying Bernoulli's equation

 \Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)

 \Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-(0.25 v_2)^2)

 \Delta P = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 (1 - 0.0625)

 v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\Delta P}{\rho(1 - 0.0625)}}

 v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1200}{660 \times(1 - 0.0625)}}

       v₂ = 1.97 m/s

b) fluid flow rate

Q = A₂ V₂

Q = π (0.014)²  x 1.97

Q = 1.21 x 10⁻³ m³/s

A circular rod with a gage length of 3.5 mm and a diameter of 2.8 cmcm is subjected to an axial load of 68 kN . If the modulus o
Crank

To solve this problem, we will apply the concepts related to the linear deformation of a body given by the relationship between the load applied over a given length, acting by the corresponding area unit and the modulus of elasticity. The mathematical representation of this is given as:

\delta = \frac{PL}{AE}

Where,

P = Axial Load

l = Gage length

A = Cross-sectional Area

E = Modulus of Elasticity

Our values are given as,

l = 3.5m

D = 0.028m

P = 68*10^3 N

E = 200GPa  

A = \frac{\pi}{4}(0.028)^2 \rightarrow 0.0006157m^2

Replacing we have,

\delta = \frac{PL}{AE}

\delta = \frac{( 68*10^3)(3.5)}{(0.0006157)(200*10^9)}

\delta = 0.001932m

\delta = 1.93mm

Therefore the change in length is 1.93mm

Dafna1 [17]

By equation of motion :

2as=v^2-u^2\\\\s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\s=\dfrac{0^2-2^2}{2\times( -0.2)}\\\\s=10\ m

Now, it is given that it stops after 5 seconds of motion and time at that point is 12:00.

So, time when it started is 11 : 59 : 55.

Therefore, distance travelled is 10 m.

Hence, this is the required solution.
