A 1/17th scale model of a new hybrid car is tested in a wind tunnel at the same Reynolds number as that of the full-scale protot

ype. The drag coefficient of the model is the same as that of the prototype. Assuming the model and prototype are both tested in air, find the ratio of the drag on the scale model (Fm) to the drag on the prototype (Fp), i.e., Fm/Fp. Since the size of the model is 1/17th of the size of the prototype, the projected area of the model is (1/17)2 of the projected area of the prototype. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

The ratio of the drag coefficients \dfrac{F_m}{F_p} is approximately 0.0002

Step-by-step explanation:

The given Reynolds number of the model = The Reynolds number of the prototype

The drag coefficient of the model, c_{m} = The drag coefficient of the prototype, c_{p}

The medium of the test for the model, \rho_m = The medium of the test for the prototype, \rho_p

The drag force is given as follows;

F_D = C_D \times A \times  \dfrac{\rho \cdot V^2}{2}

We have;

L_p = \dfrac{\rho _p}{\rho _m} \times \left(\dfrac{V_p}{V_m} \right)^2 \times \left(\dfrac{c_p}{c_m} \right)^2 \times L_m

Therefore;

\dfrac{L_p}{L_m}  = \dfrac{\rho _p}{\rho _m} \times \left(\dfrac{V_p}{V_m} \right)^2 \times \left(\dfrac{c_p}{c_m} \right)^2

\dfrac{L_p}{L_m}  =\dfrac{17}{1}

\therefore \dfrac{L_p}{L_m}  = \dfrac{17}{1} =\dfrac{\rho _p}{\rho _p} \times \left(\dfrac{V_p}{V_m} \right)^2 \times \left(\dfrac{c_p}{c_p} \right)^2 = \left(\dfrac{V_p}{V_m} \right)^2

\dfrac{17}{1} = \left(\dfrac{V_p}{V_m} \right)^2

\dfrac{F_p}{F_m}  = \dfrac{c_p \times A_p \times  \dfrac{\rho_p \cdot V_p^2}{2}}{c_m \times A_m \times  \dfrac{\rho_m \cdot V_m^2}{2}} = \dfrac{A_p}{A_m} \times \dfrac{V_p^2}{V_m^2}

\dfrac{A_m}{A_p} = \left( \dfrac{1}{17} \right)^2

\dfrac{F_p}{F_m}  = \dfrac{A_p}{A_m} \times \dfrac{V_p^2}{V_m^2}= \left (\dfrac{17}{1} \right)^2 \times \left( \left\dfrac{17}{1} \right) = 17^3

\dfrac{F_m}{F_p}  = \left( \left\dfrac{1}{17} \right)^3= (1/17)^3 ≈ 0.0002

The ratio of the drag coefficients \dfrac{F_m}{F_p} ≈ 0.0002.

Denis examined the records of the clients who had joined his gym more than six months ago, and he found these statistics: \begin
drek231 [11]

Answer:

.2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a conditional probability question. So it's asking you to find the probability that a client remained a member for more than 6 months, given that the client joined in January - which is formatted as P = (.5 | .12). You would then divide the chance of being over 6 months AND in January over the chance of being a member for over six months. ( .024 / .12) There, you would get .2 as your answer.

Given angle ABC shown on the coordinate plane below.
Crank

The attached image shows the image of A"B"C" after the transformation

<h3>What is the transformation of the triangle about?</h3>

The transformation rule states:

A"B"C" = Ro90° (T(-4,3)(ABC))

This implies that one need to rotate the triangle in a 90⁰ clockwise direction, and then one need to translate the triangle.

Using the image shown, the coordinates of ABC are;

A = (-1, 2)

B = (1, 4)

C = (3, -1)

The 90⁰ rule clockwise rotation  will be:

(x,y) -- (y,-x)

So, when translated, it will be:

A' = (2, 1)

B' = (4, -1)

C' = (-1, -3)

Then the translation of the triangle using T(-4,3):

(x, y) -  (x - 4, y + 3)

So, there is:

A'' = (-2, 4)

B'' = (0, 2)

C'' = (-5, 0)
