An air stream flows over a smooth plate with Reynolds number of 106. The boundary layer can be assumed to be turbulent over the entire plate. If the length of the plate is increased by 10%, taking all the factors same, what is percentage change in the total drag coefficient? [Take (1.1) 0.2 = 1.019]

3. Consider a small air bubble formed in very viscous oil. The bubble radius is 1 mm. The oil properties are: µ = 1.2 N – s/m², p = 892 kg/m³. At very low Reynolds numbers the drag force acting on a bubble of radius a rising in a viscous fluid at a constant velocity U is given by: F - 4πμUα (a) Calculate the bubble velocity (b) Show that the result is justified.
A baseball is thrown by a picture at 88 mph (129 ft/s) through still air. The diameter of the baseball is 2.82 inches. Estimate the drag force on the baseball. NOTE: ρair = 2.38 x10-3 slugs/ft3, νair = 1.57x10-4 ft2/s. Assume the baseball acts as a smooth sphere.
Question 2* A thin flat plate is immersed in a fluid stream 20 m/s. Estimate the distance x from the leading edge at which the boundary layer will be I mm or 10 cm for (a) air and (b) water at normal room temperature and pressure. (For air 0.0615 m, 6.47 m; for water 0.044 m, 9.52 m)
For laminar flow in a pipe, the drop in pressure Ap is a function of the pipe length L, its diameter D, mean velocity of flow V and the dynamic viscosity μ. Using Rayleigh's method, develop an expression for Ap.
The bottom area of a rectangular plate is 40cm× 60cm, as shown in the figure 3.7. The mass of the plate is Skg, it evenly declines along with the horizontal plane into 30° cant at the velocity 1.0 m/s. The oil thickness between the plate and the cant is Imm. How much is the dynamic viscosity coefficient of the oil? 30 Figure 3.7
