A car is carrying a piece of plywood with dimensions 2.40 m by 1.15 m. If the mass of the plywood is 12.0 kg, what maximum speed can the car travel before the wood flies off? This is the speed of the air rushing above the plywood as the car moves along. (Density of the air is 1.29 kg/m3)

Q.2. When an oblique shock strikes a solid wall, it reflects as a shock of sufficient strength to cause the exit flow M3 to be parallel to the wall, as in the figure. For airflow with M1 = 2.5 and p1 = 100 kPa, compute M3, p3 and the angle Ø. M2 M, = 2.5 M3 40°

A chimney 100 f t high is being forced to vibrate at a frequency f in a wind of 20 f t/s by vortices that are shed in its wake. This phenomenon depends on the fluid density ρ and viscosity µ and the chimney material modulus of elasticity E, where E = stress/strain. A model is constructed which is geometrically similar to the chimney in every way and is 10 ft high. The mass per unit length, m, of chimney model can be adjusted by attaching dummy masses inside without affecting its elastic behavior. Gravity is not involved in this problem. (a) Using dimensional analysis derive all relevant nondimensional groups. Try to use physically meaningful nondimensional groups wherever possible. Make sure these groups are independent. (b) If the full-scale chimney is made from steel with a modulus of elasticity E = 30 × 106 lbf /in2 , find the necessary modulus of elasticity so as to simulate the correct conditions at the model scale. (c) At what frequency would you expect the…
