Air flows through a heating duct with a square cross-section with 9-inch sides at a speed of 6.1 ft/s. Just before reaching an outlet in the floor of a room, the duct widens to assume a square cross-section with sides equal to 14 inches. Compute the speed of the air flowing into the room (in ft/s), assuming that we can treat the air as an incompressible fluid. ft/s

Need Help: It is known that a cubical object made of cast aluminum 0.213 m on a side contains a hollow cavity also in the shape of a cube but of unknown dimensions. If the mass of the object is 22.8 kg, determine the length of each side of the interior cubical cavity. The density of aluminum is 2.70 103 kg/m3. Given Tip: How is the volume of the cubical object related to the volume of aluminum in the object and the volume of the cubical cavity? How is the mass of the cubical object related to the mass of aluminum in the object? Recall how the volume of a cube is related to the length of each side of the cube.
A very simple way of measuring the depth of a fluid in a gas station's underground gasoline tank is by using a pressure gauge that measures gauge pressure. Assume the fluid in the tank is gasoline with a density of 700 kg/m3 and g = 9.80 m/s2. If the gauge pressure is 25.9 kPa what is the depth of the gasoline in the tank? Assume 3 significant digits. Watch the units! A. 3.78 cm B. 37.8 m C. 0.378 m D. 3.78 m E. 3.78 mm

A vertical cylindrical tank of height h and radius R has a narrow crack of width w running vertically from top to bottom. If the tank is initially filled with water and allowed to drain through the crack under the influence of gravity, find the instantaneous depth of the water as a function of time. How long will it take the tank to empty? Hint: First imagine the crack to be a series of adjacent orifices, and integrate to find the total efflux from the crack in the infinites imal time interval dt. P 3:43

When a person inhales, air moves down the bronchus (windpipe) at 13.8 cm/s. The average flow speed of the air doubles through a constriction in the bronchus. Assuming incompressible flow, determine the pressure drop in the constriction. Neglect the change of pressure due to change in height ?y in the wind pipe. If the pressure goes down then the pressure drop is negative. Use 1.20 kg/m33 for the density of air.
