The Reynolds number, rho VD/mu, is a very important parameter in fluid mechanics. Verify that the Reynolds number is dimensionle

ss, using both the FLT system and the MLT system for basic dimensions, and determine its value for methane flowing at a velocity of 4 m/s through a 2-in-diameter pipe.

Answer:

Re = 1 10⁴

Explanation:

Reynolds number is

         Re = ρ v D /μ

The units of each term are

       ρ = [kg / m³]

       v = [m / s]

      D = [m]

      μ = [Pa s]

The pressure

      Pa = [N / m²] = [Kg m / s²] 1 / [m²] = [kg / m s²]

      μ = [Pa s] = [kg / m s²] [s] = [kg / m s]

We substitute the units in the equation

      Re = [kg / m³] [m / s] [m] / [kg / m s]

      Re = [kg / m s] / [m s / kg]

      RE = [ ]

Reynolds number is a scalar

Let's evaluate for the given point

Where the data for methane are:

viscosity       μ = 11.2 10⁻⁶ Pa s

the density  ρ = 0.656 kg / m³

       D = 2 in (2.54 10⁻² m / 1 in) = 5.08 10⁻² m

       Re = 0.656 4 2 5.08 10⁻² /11.2 10⁻⁶

       Re = 1.19 10⁴

Like they said the leopard seal will overpopulate and kill out all of the other animals. Because it would be at the top of the chain then without the killer whale. Therefore, since it is at the top of the chain it will overpopulate because it has nothing to eat/kill it so then they would eat the animals lower than them<span />

Calculate the minimum average power output necessary for a person to run up a 12.0 m long hillside, which is inclined at 25.0° a
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Power, P = 924.15 watts

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the ramp, l = 12 m

Mass of the person, m = 55.8 kg

Angle between the inclined plane and the horizontal, \theta=25^{\circ}

Time, t = 3 s

Let h is the height of the hill from the horizontal,

h=l\ sin\theta

h=12\times \ sin(25)

h = 5.07 m

Let P is the power output necessary for a person to run up long hill side as :

P=\dfrac{E}{t}

P=\dfrac{mgh}{t}

P=\dfrac{55.8\times 9.8\times 5.07}{3}

P = 924.15 watts

So, the minimum average power output necessary for a person to run up is 924.15 watts. Hence, this is the required solution.
