Can someone help me plz!!

The drag force, Fd, imposed by the surrounding air on a

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

a) 23.551 hp

b) 516.89 hp

Explanation:

given:

$F_{d} =\frac{1}{2} C_{d} A_{p} V^{2} \\V_{a}=25 m/hr-->25*\frac{5280}{3600} =36.67ft/s\\V_{b}=70 m/hr-->70*\frac{5280}{3600} =102.67ft/s\\\\C_{d}=.28\\A=25 ft^2\\p=.075lb/ft^2$

required:

the power in hp

solution:

$(F_{d})_{a} =\frac{1}{2} C_{d} A_{p} V_{a} ^{2}$ .............(1)

by substituting in the equation (1)

=353.27 lbf

$(F_{d})_{b} =\frac{1}{2} C_{d} A_{p} V_{b} ^{2}$ ..........(2)

by substituting in the equation (2)

= 2769.29 lbf

power is defined by

P=F.V

$P_{a}=$ 353.27*36.67

=12954.411 lbf.ft/s

=12954.411*.001818

=23.551 hp

$P_{a}=$ 2769.29*102.67

= 284323 lbf.ft/s

= 284323*.001818

= 516.89 hp

"At 195 miles long, and with 7,325 miles of coastline, the Chesapeake Bay is the largest and most complex estuary in the United

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

see explaination

Explanation:

Part a) Width of bay at Potomac River:

Given Data:

· Actual Width at Potomac River = 30 miles

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

In fluid mechanics models of real structures are prepared in simulation so that they can be analyzed accurately. A model is known to have simulation if model carries same geometric, kinematic and dynamic properties at a small scale.

Length of any part in model = Actual length x Lr

Hence,

Model Width of bay at Potomac River = 30 x 1/1000 = 0.03 miles

Since 1 mile = 5280 ft

Model Width of bay at Potomac River = 0.03 x 5280 = 158.4 ft

Part b) Model Length of bay bridge in model:

Given Data:

· Actual Length of bay bridge = 4.3 miles

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

Model Length = Actual Length x Lr = 4.3 x 1/1000 = 0.0043 miles

Since 1 mile = 5280 ft

Model Length in feet = 0.0043 x 5280 = 22.704 ft

Part c) Model Length of bay bridge in model:

Given Data:

· Model Area = 8 acre

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

Model Area = Actual Area x Lr x Lr

8 Model Area :: Actual Area =- (Lp)2 2 = 8,000,000 acre 1000

Since 1 square mile = 640 acre,

Actual Area in square miles = 8,000,000/640 = 12,500 square miles

Part d) Average and maximum depth of model:

Given Data:

· Actual Average depth = 28 ft

· Actual Maximum depth = 174 ft

· Bay Model Length Ratio Lr = 1/1000

Model average depth = Actual average depth x Lr = 28 x 1/1000 = 0.028 feet

Since 1 ft = 12 inch

Model average depth in inch = 0.028 x 12 = 0.336 in

Model maximum depth = Actual maximum depth x Lr = 174 x 1/1000 = 0.174 feet

Since 1 ft = 12 inch

Model maximum depth in inch = 0.174 x 12 = 2.088 in

A cylinder with a frictionless piston contains 0.05 m3 of air at 60kPa. The linear spring holding the piston is in tension. The

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

18 kJ

Explanation:

Given:

Initial volume of air = 0.05 m³

Initial pressure = 60 kPa

Final volume = 0.2 m³

Final pressure = 180 kPa

Now,

the Work done by air will be calculated as:

Work Done = Average pressure × Change in volume

thus,

Average pressure = $\frac{60+180}{2}$ = 120 kPa

and,

Change in volume = Final volume - Initial Volume = 0.2 - 0.05 = 0.15 m³

Therefore,

the work done = 120 × 0.15 = 18 kJ
