Question
Transcribed Image Text:A dimensional analysis is performed on the drag on a boat. When the effects of viscosity can be neglected, the Euler number based on the drag D experienced by the boat is a
function of a Froude number. The effects of the dimensions of the boat can be represented by its length I. The drag on a model of the model is measured as 0.35N. If the ratio
of / for a full-scale model to the value of/ for the model is 46, calculate the expected drag on the full-scale boat. Your answer should be to the nearest kN.
The properties of the water in the model test matches those for the full-scale boat.

The important variables affecting the period of a vibrating beam (usually designated as T and with dimensions of time) are the beam length, area moment of inertia I, modulus of elasticity E, material density p, and Poisson's ratio σ, so that T= fcn(l, I, E, p, σ) Recall that the modulus of elasticity has typical units of N/m² and Poisson's ratio is dimensionless. (a) Find a dimensionless version of the functional relationship. (b) If E and I must always appear together (meaning that EI is effectively a single variable), find a dimen- sionless version of the functional relationship.arrow_forward
- When small aerosol particles or microorganisms move through air or water, the Reynolds number is very small (Re << 1). Such flows are called creeping flows. The drag on an object in creeping flow is a function only of its speed V, some characteristic length scale L of the object, and fluid viscosity µ.
