Determine the ratio of the flow rate through capillary tubes A and B (that is, Qa/Qb).

To solve this problem we can use the concepts related to the change of flow of a fluid within a tube, which is without a rubuleous movement and therefore has a laminar fluid.

It is sometimes called Poiseuille’s law for laminar flow, or simply Poiseuille’s law.

The mathematical equation that expresses this concept is

\dot{Q} = \frac{\pi r^4 (P_2-P_1)}{8\eta L}

Where

P = Pressure at each point

r = Radius

\eta = Viscosity

l = Length

Of all these variables we have so much that the change in pressure and viscosity remains constant so the ratio between the two flows would be

\frac{\dot{Q_A}}{\dot{Q_B}} = \frac{r_A^4}{r_B^4}\frac{L_B}{L_A}

From the problem two terms are given

R_A = \frac{R_B}{2}

L_A = 2L_B

Replacing we have to

\frac{\dot{Q_A}}{\dot{Q_B}} = \frac{r_A^4}{r_B^4}\frac{L_B}{L_A}

\frac{\dot{Q_A}}{\dot{Q_B}} = \frac{r_B^4}{16*r_B^4}\frac{L_B}{2*L_B}

\frac{\dot{Q_A}}{\dot{Q_B}} = \frac{1}{32}

Therefore the ratio of the flow rate through capillary tubes A and B is 1/32

A car of mass m push = 1200 kg is capable of a maximum acceleration of 6.00 m / s 2 . If this car is required to push a stalled

1)

first you find the maxium force that the car can produce.

f=ma

Fmax=(1100kg)(6m/s^2)

then use f = ma again to find the accel with the passengers

Fmax=(1100kg +1650kg)(a)

=> a = (1100kg)(6m/s^2)/( 1100kg +1650kg)

= 2.4 m/s^2
