What is most nearly the terminal velocity of a 50mm diameter solid aluminum sphere falling in air? the sphere has a coefficient of drag of 0.5, density of aluminum is 2650 kg/m^3 , and density of air is 1.225 kg/m^3.Answer: 53 m/s
A hurricane is a tropical storm formed over the ocean by low atmospheric pressure. As a hurricane
approaches land, inordinate ocean swells with a very high tides accompany the hurricane. Normally for a
hurricane, there is an "eye" located at the center with very low wind velocity. Figure Q2a depicts a
hurricane hovering over the ocean swell below. The atmospheric pressure at the point 1, generally normal
for the ocean, which is located 300 km from the eye is 10 m in mercury (Hg). At point 1, the winds are calm.
Given that the density of seawater and mercury is 1023.6 kg/m3 and 13534 kg/m3 , respectively, and the
density of air at normal sea level temperature and pressure to be 1.22 kg/m3.
i. Apply a proper form of energy conservation principle and estimate the ocean swells at the eye of the
hurricane at point 3 (h1) and point 2 (h2). Please note that the wind velocity at the eye of the hurricane
(point 3) is very low and the wind velocity at point 2 is 70 m/s. List down all the…

The slower terminal speed and longer time in the air provide greater dispersal than would be possible for simple spherical seeds.
