A crude approximation for the x component of velocity in an incompressible laminar boundary layer is a linear variation from u =

0 at the surface (y = 0 ) to the freestream velocity, U, at the boundary-layer edge (y = δ). The equation for the profile is u = Uy/δ, where δ = cx1/2 and c is a constant. (a) What is the simplest expression for the y component of velocity (use x, y, u)? (b) Evaluate the maximum value of the ratio v/U, at a location where x = 0.5 m and δ = 6.0 mm.

Answer:

2.5 * 10^-3

Explanation:

<u>solution:</u>

The simplest solution is obtained if we assume that this is a two-dimensional steady flow, since in that case there are no dependencies upon the z coordinate or time t. Also, we will assume that there are no additional arbitrary purely x dependent functions f (x) in the velocity component v. The continuity equation for a two-dimensional in compressible flow states:

<em>δu/δx+δv/δy=0</em>

so that:  

<em>δv/δy= -δu/δx</em>

Now, since u = Uy/δ, where δ = cx^1/2, we have that:

<em>u=U*y/cx^1/2</em>

and we obtain:  

<em>δv/δy=U*y/2cx^3/2</em>

The last equation can be integrated to obtain (while also using the condition of simplest solution - no z or t dependence, and no additional arbitrary functions of x):  

v=∫δv/δy(dy)=U*y/4cx^1/2

 =y/x*(U*y/4cx^1/2)

 =u*y/4x

which is exactly what we needed to demonstrate.  

Also, using u = U*y/δ in the last equation we can obtain:  

v/U=u*y/4*U*x

     =y^2/4*δ*x

which obviously attains its maximum value for the which is y = δ (boundary-layer edge). So, finally:

(v/U)_max=δ^2/4δx

                =δ/4x

                =2.5 * 10^-3

At t = 0, a particle starts at rest and moves along a line in such a way that, at time t, its acceleration is 24t 2 ft / s2. thr
svp [43]
The acceleration of the particle at time t is:
a(t)=24t^2 ft/s^2
The velocity of the particle at time t is given by the integral of the acceleration a(t):
v(t)= \int a(t) \, dt = \int (24 t^2) dt=24 \frac{t^3}{3}=8t^3 ft/s
and the position of the particle at time t is given by the integral of the velocity v(t):
x(t)=\int v(t) = \int (8t^3)=8  \frac{t^4}{4}=2t^4 ft

Assuming the particle starts from position x(0)=0 at t=0, the distance the particle covers in the first t=2 seconds can be found by substituting t=2 s in the equation of x(t):
x(2 s)=2 t^4 = 2 (2s)^4=32 ft

8 The diagram shows four identical spheres placed between two wooden blocks on a ruler.
enyata [817]

The diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

<h3>How to calculate the diameter?</h3>

From the diagram, the first sphere on the ruler is at 4cn and the last sphere is at 12cm.

Therefore, the length will be:

= 12 - 4.

= 8cm

The diameter of one sphere will be:

= Length / 4

= 8/4

= 2

Therefore, the diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

2. Suppose that a parallel-plate capacitor has circular plates with radius R = 30 mm and a plate separation of d = 5.0 mm. Suppo
seropon [69]

Answer:

The maximum value of the induced magnetic field is 2.901\times10^{-13}\ T.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of plate = 30 mm

Separation = 5.0 mm

Frequency = 60 Hz

Suppose the maximum potential difference is 100 V and r= 130 mm.

We need to calculate the angular frequency

Using formula of angular frequency

\omega=2\pi f

Put the value into the formula

\omega=2\times\pi\times60

\omega=376.9\ rad/s

When r>R, the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the r.

We need to calculate the maximum value of the induced magnetic field that occurs at r = R

Using formula of magnetic filed

B_{max}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}\epsilon_{0}R^2\timesV_{max}\times\omega}{2rd}

Where, R = radius of plate

d = plate separation

V = voltage

Put the value into the formula

B_{max}=\dfrac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(30\times10^{-3})^2\times100\times376.9}{2\times130\times10^{-3}\times5.0\times10^{-3}}

B_{max}=2.901\times10^{-13}\ T

Hence, The maximum value of the induced magnetic field is 2.901\times10^{-13}\ T.

Explain how the plants of a tropical rain forest contribute to the characteristic hot, humid weather associated with the area. U
Talja [164]

Answer: The atmosphere of trophic rainforest is hot and humid due to high rate of transpiration.

Explanation:

The tropical rainforest is a biome which exhibit rich biodiversity of plants and animals. The average temperatures in this region remain high with warm summer. It remains frost free. The soil is nutrient deficient. Due to hot temperature the rate of transpiration remains high as a result the concentration of the water vapors remain high. This is responsible for increasing the humidity in the atmosphere also this region receives appreciable amount of rainfall annually. The average rainfall range is 200-450 centimeters.
