Textbook Question
Chapter 17, Problem 12RQ
An unmanned X-43A scramjet test vehicle has achieved a maximum speed of Mach number 9.68 in a test flight over the Pacific Ocean. Mach number is defined as the speed of an object divided by the speed of sound. Assuming the speed of sound is 343 meters per second, write a MATLAB function that will calculate the speed in units of miles per hour given the Mach number.

For the following concentration expressions, indicate whether they are uniform or nonuniform
and in how many dimensions (OD, 1D, 2D, or 3D), and steady or unsteady. Then for the following
control volume and origin, and table of constants, use Excel or Matlab to graph profiles that
show how concentration changes within the control volume and over time to a limit of 20 for
the following: C(x,0,0,0), C(0,y,0,0), c(0,0,z,0) and C(0,0,0,t). On each graph, show which
parameters are held constant, the CV boundaries, and the point where all four plots overlap.

- Please state the formulas used and write the answers clearly and completely. Include also the free body diagram. Thank you!arrow_forward. I am planning to perform some volume-flow rate measurements in the Fluid Mechanics Laboratory. For this, I need a volumetric measuring tank (graduated cylinder) and a stopwatch. I considered the volume of the measured tank as 15 gallons and a stopwatch with reaction time as 1/10th of a second (though resolution of 1/1000th of a second). What is the volume flow rate if it takes 5 minutes to fill a 15-gallon of tank? Determine the smallest division to be on the tank in order to estimate the volume flow rate within an accuracy of ± 0.05 gpm.arrow_forwardThe Antoine Equation can be used to estimate vapor pressure at various temperatures for different substances using sets of empirically-derived constants. The equation can be written as: Where for water A = 8.07131, B = 1730.63, C = 233.426, T = temperature [°C], and P = vapor pressure [mmHg]. Note that with these constants the temperature and pressure must be provided in °C and mmHg, respectively. Using the Antoine Equation and the provided constants, what atmospheric pressure (provided in terms of % of standard atmospheric pressure) will permit water to boil at 75 °C?arrow_forward
