A pool of volume V (in m3) is to be filled with water using a hose of diameter D (in m). If the average discharge velocity is V (in m/s) and the filling time is t (in s), obtain a relation for the volume of the pool based on unit considerations of quantities involved.
Air at pressure 173.9 kPa flows through a pipe. The actual volume flow rate of air through the pipe is
measured to be 6.85 m3/s. The standard volume flow rate of this air flow is 2.71 m/s. Calculate the air
density in units of kg/m3. Hint: The ideal gas equation is useful for air.
2. The diameters of the suction and discharge pipes of a pump are 15 and 10 cm, respectively.
The discharge pressure is read by a gage at a point 1.5 m above the centerline of the pump and
the suction pressure is read by a gage 0.6 m below the centerline. If the pressure gage reads
140 kPa and the suction gage reads a vacuum of 21 cm Hg when gasoline is pumped at the rate
of 35 l/sec (sg of gasoline is 0.75)
