Textbook Question
Chapter 7, Problem 16P
A two-dimensional circular cylinder is placed in a high-speed uniform flow. Vortices shed from the cylinder at a constant frequency, and pressure sensors on the rear surface of the cylinder detect this frequency by calculating how often the pressure oscillates. Given three data points, use Müller's method to find the time where the pressure was zero.
| Time | 0.60 | 0.62 | 0.64 |
| Pressure | 203 | 50 | 60 |

Cardiologists use the short-range scaling exponent α1, which measures the randomness of heart rate patterns, as a tool to assess risk of heart attack. The article “Applying Fractal Analysis to Short Sets of Heart Rate Variability Data” compared values of α1 computed from long series of measurements (approximately 40,000 heartbeats) with those estimated from the first 300 beats to determine how well the long-term measurement (y) could be predicted the short-term one (x). Following are the data (obtained by digitizing a graph).

6. A ball is thrown straight up in the air at time t = 0. Its height y(t) is given by
y(t) = vot -
791²
(1)
Calculate:
(a) The time at which the ball hits the ground. First, make an estimate using a scaling
analysis (the inputs are g and vo and the output is the time of landing. Think about
their units and how you might construct the output using the inputs, just by matching
units). Solve the problem exactly. Verify that the scaling analysis gives you (almost)
the correct answer.
(b) The times at which the ball reaches the height v/(4g). Use the quadratic formula.
(c) The times at which the ball reaches the height v/(2g). You should find that both
solutions are identical. What does this indicate physically?
(d) The times at which the ball reaches the height v/g. What is the physical interpretation
of your solutions?
(e) Does your scaling analysis provide any insight into the answers for questions (a-e)?
Discuss. (Hint: Observe how your answers depend on g and vo).

- Pierce (1948) mechanically measured the frequency (the number of wing vibrations per second) of chirps (or pulses of sound) made by a striped ground cricket, at various ground temperatures. Since crickets are ectotherms (cold-blooded), the rate of their philosophical processes and their overall metabolism are influenced by temperature. Consequently, there is a reason to believe that temperature would have a profound affect on aspects of their behavior, such as chirp frequency. In general, it was found that crickets did not sing at temperatures colder than 60°F or warmer than 100°F. In the following data let X= chirps/sec for the striped ground cricket and Y= temperature in degrees of Fahrenheit.

- The friction in flows through the pipe is defined by a dimensionless number called the fanning friction factor (f). The Fanning friction factor is represented by another dimensionless number, the Reynolds number (Re).It depends on the diameter of the pipe and some parameters related to the fluid. An equation that can predict f given the Reynolds number is given as follows. If Re =4000, e/D=0.01 in this equation, find the value of f using the Simple Iteration method by taking f0=0.1 as the initial value for the solution (ԑ=0.0001)arrow_forwardSolve this whole problem and include the interpolation of the same table.arrow_forwardNeeds Complete typed solution with 100 % accuracy.arrow_forward
