Nitella [24]

Answer:

(a) The volume rate of flow per meter width = 5.6*10⁻³ m²/s

(b) The shear stress acting on the bottom plate = 157.5 N/m²

(c) The velocity along the centerline of the channel = 0.93 m/s

Explanation:

(a)

Calculating the distance of plate from centre line using the formula;

h = d/2

where h = distance of plate

d = diameter of flow = 9 mm

Substituting, we have;

h = 9/2

= 4.5 mm = 4.5*10^-3 m

Calculating the volume flow rate using the formula;

Q = (2h³/3μ)* (Δp/L)

Where;

Q = volume flow rate

h = distance of plate = 4.5*10^-3 m

μ = dynamic viscosity = 0.38 N.s/m²

(Δp/L) = Pressure drop per unit length = 35 kPa/m = 35000 Pa

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Q = (2*0.0045³/3*0.38) *(35000)

= (1.8225*10⁻⁷/1.14) * (35000)

= 1.60*10⁻⁷ * 35000

= 5.6*10⁻³ m²/s

Therefore, the volume flow rate = 5.6*10⁻³ m³/s

(b) Calculating the shear stress acting at the bottom plate using the formula;

τ = h*(Δp/L)

= 0.0045* 35000

= 157.5 N/m²

(c) Calculating the velocity along the centre of the channel using the formula;

u(max) = h²/2μ)* (Δp/L)

= (0.0045²/2*0.38) * 35000

=2.664*10⁻⁵ *35000

= 0.93 m/s

A satellite orbits the Earth every 2 hours at an average distance from the Earth's centre of 8000km. (i) What is the average ang

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

i)ω=3600 rad/s

ii)V=7059.44 m/s

iii)F=1245.8 N

Explanation:

i)

We know that angular speed given as

$\omega =\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}$

We know that for one revolution

θ=2π

Given that time t= 2 hr

So

ω=θ/t

ω=2π/2 = π rad/hr

ω=3600 rad/s

ii)

Average speed V

$V=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R}}$

Where M is the mass of earth.

R is the distance

G is the constant.

Now by putting the values

$V=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R}}$

$V=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{8000\times 10^3}}$

V=7059.44 m/s

iii)

We know that centripetal fore given as

$F=\dfrac{mV^2}{R}$

Here given that m= 200 kg

R= 8000 km

so now by putting the values

$F=\dfrac{mV^2}{R}$

$F=\dfrac{200\times 7059.44^2}{8000\times 10^3}$

F=1245.8 N
