1) At any time, approximately 20 volcanoes are actively erupting on the Earth, and 50–70 volcanoes erupt each year. Over the past 100 years, an average of 850 people have died each year from volcano eruptions. As scientists and engineers study the mechanics of lava flow, accurately predicting the flow rate (velocity) of the lava is critical to saving lives after an eruption. Jeffrey's equation captures the relationship between flow rate and viscosity as: V = Pgt“ sin(æ) 3µ Flow – 28 cm 10 where p is the density of the lava, g is gravity, t is the flow thickness, a is the slope, and u is the lava viscosity. Typical values are given as follows for the flow rate: u= 4x103 kg/(m.s) ±1% p= 2.5 g/cm³ ±1% t= 28 cm +0.5 cm a= 10° ±1 ° g= 9.81 m/s?

Atmospheric pressure can be reported in several ways. At sea level the average atmospheric pressure is 15 lbs/sq in, or 101.3 kPa, or 760 mm Hg, or 1 atmosphere. Since all of these are equal, you can easily convert from one to the other. For example, if your tire pressure is 32.0 lbs/square inch, you can determine the kilopascals in the following manner: 32.0 lb/sq in X 101.3 kPa / 15 lbs/sq in = 216 kPa. Now, find the pressure in mm Hg of a container that has a pressure of 9.92 atm. mm Hg
A thin layer of spherical particles rests on the bottom of a horizontal tube as shown in the figure below. When an incompressible fluid flows through the tube, it is observed that at some critical velocity the particles will rise and be transported along the tube. A model is to be used to determine this critical velocity. Assume the critical velocity, V, to be a function of the pipe diameter, D, particle diameter, d, the fluid density, p, and viscosity, μ, the density of the particles, Pp, and the acceleration of gravity, g. For a length scale of Dm/D=1/2 and a fluid density scale of Pm/p=1/0.9, what will be the critical velocity scale V/V (assuming all similarity requirements are satisfied)? Vm/V= i

An incompressible fluid oscillates harmonically (V = Vosinut, where Vis the velocity) with a frequency of 9 rad/s in a 6-in.-diameter pipe. A 1/5 scale model is to be used to determine the pressure difference per unit length, Ap, (at any instant) along the pipe. Assume that Api= f(D, Vo, w, t, u, p) where D is the pipe diameter, w the frequency, t the time, the u fluid viscosity, and p the fluid density. If the same fluid is used in the model and the prototype, at what frequency should the model operate? Wm i rad/s
