The sound power level of a certain jet plane flying at a height of 1,5 km is 110dB. Find the maximum sound pressure level on the ground directly below the flight path assuming that the aircraft radiates sound equally in all directions.
2) Water enters a two-dimensional, square channel of constant width, h = 10 cm, with uniform velocity U = 5 m/s. The channel makes a 90° bend that distorts the flow to produce the linear velocity profile shown at the exit, with Vmax Vmin. If the gage pressure at the entrance is P₁G = 100 kPa and the flow at the exit discharges to atmosphere, determine the direction and magnitude of the force of the water acting on the channel. 3 V.
