- Consider the mechanical energy equation: PE *+ Vg? + g ZB = + V? + gZA + W - loss + VA? +g ZA + W – loss where loss 20 Select ALL true statements below. a fluid particle will flow through point A before point B a fluid particle will flow through point B before point A points A and B do not lie on the same streamline if a turbine is present, w < 0 if a pump is present, w < 0 if the fluid is perfectly inviscid, loss can be 0arrow_forwardCalculate the value of x(t) at the following time, t= 0.5s, t= 1s and t = 1.5sarrow_forwardIn mechanical fluidarrow_forward
- For the piping system shown below, water is flowing from left to right at steady-state and constant temperature. You may assume the flow is frictionless. The pipe diameter is larger in section A than section B. The diameters of sections A and C are the same. If gravitation and frictional effects are negligible, which of the following relationships is true about the static pressure in sections A and B? Pc Ps Flow section A section B section C OPA Pg because pressure decreases as velocity increases at steady-state OPA = Pg because friction is assumed to be negligiblearrow_forwardPlease show complute solutions and units. thank yoouu. Please andswer it in 1hr.arrow_forwardIn this question, assume the "additional displacement" is in the positive u direction. A mass weighing 16 lbs stretches a spring 8 inches. The mass is in a medium that exerts a viscous resistance of 1 lbs when the mass has a velocity of 2 ft/sec. Suppose the object is displaced an additional 5 inches and released. Find an equation for the object's displacement, u(t), in feet after t seconds. u(t) =arrow_forward
- Oil flows between two parallel plates (Fig. 8.3), one of which is at rest and the other moves with a velocity U. If the pressure is decreasing in the direction of the flow at a rate of 0.10 lbf/ft² per/foot, the dynamic viscosity is 10-31bf-sec/ft2, the spacing of the plates is 2 in. and the volumetric flow per unit width is 0.15 ft2/sec, what is the velocity U?arrow_forwardWhen air expands adiabatically (without gaining or losing heat), it's pressure P and volume V are related by the equation PV^1.4=C where C is a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant the volume is 510 cubic centimeters and the pressure is 87 kPa and is decreasing at a rate of 12 kPa/minute. At what rate in cubic centimeters per minute is the volume increasing at this time?arrow_forwardSteady-state flow exists in a pipe that undergoes a gradual expansion from a diameter of 6 in. to a diameter of 8 in. The density of the fluid in the pipe is constant at 60.8 lbm/ft³. If the flow velocity is 22.4 ft/sec in the 6 in. section, what is the flow velocity in the 8 in. section?arrow_forward
- could you please help me calculate the maximum height of the jet , Hj in metres pleasearrow_forwardThe altimeter on a low-speed Cessna 172 reads 8,000 ft. By an independent measurement, the outside air temperature is 505°R. If a Pitot tube mounted on the wingtip measures 1818 Ib/ft2, what is the true velocity of the airplane?arrow_forward4. Water and acetone are mixed in a tank of volume V = 1 m³. Water (density of pw = 1 g/cm?, specific heat at constant pressure Cpw = 4.18 kJ/(kg K)) enters the tank through a pipe of cross section A1 at a speed u =1 m/s and temperature T = 20°C. Acetone (density of pa = 0.784 g/cm³, specific heat at constant pressure Cpa = 2.15 k.J/(kg K)) enters the mixing tank through a pipe of cross section A, = 5 cm?, at a speed u2 = 0.5 m/s and temperature T2 = 20°C. Heating coils maintain a temperature T the tank. Stirrers provide 50 kW of work. The water acetone mixture is extracted through a pipe of cross section Az = 7 cm?. Note that internal energy per unit mass is calculated as e = C,T – p/p. 10 cm?, 40°C within (a) Calculate the exit velocity of the mixture uz. (b) Calculate the mixture density at the exit pm.
