True, Uber drivers can be deactivated/fired if they ratings reach a certain point, despite the fact they are still considered “independent contractors”. They still belong to a company.

Air at 293k and 1atm flow over a flat plate at 5m/s. The plate is 5m wide and 6m long. (a) Determine the boundary layer thicknes

loris [4]

Answer:

a). 8.67 x $10^{-3}$ m

b).0.3011 m

c).0.0719 m

d).0.2137 N

e).1.792 N

Explanation:

Given :

Temperature of air, T = 293 K

Air Velocity, U = 5 m/s

Length of the plate is L = 6 m

Width of the plate is b = 5 m

Therefore Dynamic viscosity of air at temperature 293 K is, μ = 1.822 X $10^{-5}$ Pa-s

We know density of air is ρ = 1.21 kg / $m^{3}$

Now we can find the Reyonld no at x = 1 m from the leading edge

Re = $\frac{\rho .U.x}{\mu }$

Re = $\frac{1.21 \times 5\times 1}{1.822\times 10^{-5} }$

Re = 332052.6

Therefore the flow is laminar.

Hence boundary layer thickness is

δ = $\frac{5.x}{\sqrt{Re}}$

= $\frac{5\times 1}{\sqrt{332052.6}}$

= 8.67 x $10^{-3}$ m

a). Boundary layer thickness at x = 1 is δ = 8.67 X $10^{-3}$ m

b). Given Re = 100000

Therefore the critical distance from the leading edge can be found by,

Re = $\frac{\rho .U.x}{\mu }$

100000 = $\frac{1.21\times5\times x}{1.822 \times10^{-5}}$

x = 0.3011 m

c). Given x = 3 m from the leading edge

The Reyonld no at x = 3 m from the leading edge

Re = $\frac{\rho .U.x}{\mu }$

Re = $\frac{1.21 \times 5\times 3}{1.822\times 10^{-5} }$

Re = 996158.06

Therefore the flow is turbulent.

Therefore for a turbulent flow, boundary layer thickness is

δ = $\frac{0.38\times x}{Re^{\frac{1}{5}}}$

= $\frac{0.38\times 3}{996158.06^{\frac{1}{5}}}$

= 0.0719 m

d). Distance from the leading edge upto which the flow will be laminar,

Re = $\frac{\rho \times U\times x}{\mu }$

5 X $10^{5}$ = $\frac{1.21 \times 5\times x}{1.822\times 10^{-5}}}$

x = 1.505 m

We know that the force acting on the plate is

$F_{D}$ = $\frac{1}{2}\times C_{D}\times \rho \times A\times U^{2}$

and $C_{D}$ at x= 1.505 for a laminar flow is = $\frac{1.328}{\sqrt{Re}}$

= $\frac{1.328}{\sqrt{5\times10 ^{5}}}$

= 1.878 x $10^{-3}$

Therefore, $F_{D}$ = $\frac{1}{2}\times C_{D}\times \rho \times A\times U^{2}$

= $\frac{1}{2}\times 1.878\times 10^{-3}\times 1.21\times (5\times 1.505)\times 5^{2}$

= 0.2137 N

e). The flow is turbulent at the end of the plate.

Re = $\frac{\rho \times U\times x}{\mu }$

= $\frac{1.21 \times 5\times 6}{1.822\times 10^{-5} }$

= 1992316

Therefore $C_{D}$ = $\frac{0.072}{Re^{\frac{1}{5}}}$

= $\frac{0.072}{1992316^{\frac{1}{5}}}$

= 3.95 x $10^{-3}$

Therefore $F_{D}$ = $\frac{1}{2}\times C_{D}\times \rho\times A\times U^{2}$

= $\frac{1}{2}\times 3.95\times 10^{-3}\times 1.21\times (5\times 6)\times 5^{2}$

= 1.792 N

The Clausius inequality expresses which of the following laws? i. Law of Conservation of Mass ii. Law of Conservation of Energy

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

(iv) second law of thermodynamics

Explanation:

The Clausius inequality expresses the second law of thermodynamics it applies to the real engine cycle.It is defined as the cycle integral of change in entropy of a reversible system is zero. It is nothing but mathematical form of second law of thermodynamics . It also states that for irreversible process the cyclic integral of change in entropy is less than zero
