EXERCISE 2 Air flows through a pipe at a rate of 120 l/s. The pipe consist of two sections of diameters 22 cm and 10 cm with a smooth reducing section that connects them. The pressure difference between the two pipe sections is measured by a water manometer. Neglecting frictional effects, determine the differential height of water between the two pipe sections. Take the air density to be 1.2 kg/m³. (Ans: 0.01367 m) 22 cm 10 cm 1 Air - 120 L/s Water

Air velocity in a duct is measured by a Pitot-static probe connected to a differential pressure gage. If the air is at 13.4 psia absolute and 70 degF and the reading of the differential pressure gage is 0.15 psi, determine the air velocity. ANSWER: 143 ft/s. The book provides the answer, but I'm stuck on what to do.
Consider a tilted surface with an angle of 30 degrees. Oil (µ = 0.025 Pa.s) covers the inclined surface, and when a cubic object with a height of 0.1 m is placed on the tilted surface, a liquid film of 0.5 mm occurs. Suppose that the object slides down the surface with a constant velocity of 0.2 m/s. Determine the mass (in gram) and density of the object (in kg/m3).
An engineer designing a light aircraft is trying to make an estimate of the radius of the propeller needed. The design speed of the aircraft is 69m/s into still air and at this speed experience allows the engineer to assume a propeller efficiency of 0.8. Other analysis shows that a thrust of 9296N must be supplied by the propeller to maintain the design speed. Assuming a constant air density of 1.21 kg/m³, determine the radius of the ideal propeller in m to 2 decimal places. Note: Use the propulsive efficiency equation to find the final downstream speed of the air and check that this makes physical sense before calculating the radius.
It is known that the pressure at the nose of an air- plane traveling at relatively low speed is related to its speed by p=pv², where p is the density of air. Determine the speed of an airplane traveling near the earth's surface if a U-tube manometer, that measures the nose pressure, reads: (a) 6 cm of water 10 cm of water (b) 3 in. of water (d) 5 in. of water (c)
