The water in a tank is pressurized by air and the pressure is measured by a multifluid
manometer as shown in Figure 3. Determine the gage pressure of air in the tank if
h,=0.2 m, h2=0.3 m, and h3 =0.4 m. Take the densities of water, oil and mercury to be

4.3 PQ4 Breathe in and out of your mouth. Try to sense the air
flow patterns near your face while doing this. Discuss the type
of flow associated with these flow processes. If you were to
blow out a candle, you would do it while exhaling (at least
most people do). Why is it easier to do this by exhaling than by
inhaling?

- What is the ratio of the average distances that oxygen will diffuse in a given time in air and water? Why is this distance less in water (equivalently, why is D less in water)?arrow_forwardA sprinkler system pumps water through a large pipe inlet with a diameter (di). The pipe then breaks into N narrow pipes (which have a diameter, o, and a length, L2), before the water is released to the atmosphere, as shown in figure Q4. The entrance to the small pipe from the large pipe has a loss coefficient of K. You may assume the flow is laminar and fully developed everywhere in the system, and that any changes in height are negligible. The viscosity is not negligible. a) Find an expression for the velocity of water leaving the sprinkler. b) Find an expression for the gauge pressure at point A, a distance Lt upstream of the narrow pipes. Express your answer in terms of the flowrate, Q.arrow_forwardA water tank of height h has a small hole at height y. The water is replenished to keep h from changing. The water squirting from the hole has range x. The range approaches zero as y → 0 because the water squirts right onto the ground. The range also approaches zero as y → h because the horizontal velocity becomes zero. Thus there must be some height y between 0 and h for which the range is a maximum. (Figure 1) Figure h y < 1 of 1 Part B Find an algebraic expression for the range of a particle shot horizontally from height y with speed v.

- A massless spring of constant 60N/m is attached vertically to a table. A 9-g balloon is filled with helium (density = 0.180 kg/m3 ) to a volume of 1.55m3 and is then connected to the spring, causing it to stretch to equilibrium distance d. Find d. State your answer to the nearest 0.001m. Take air density to be 1.225 kg/m3 and g =9.8m/s² Your Answer:arrow_forwardAn incompressible viscous flow is contained between two parallel plates separated from each other by distance b. as shown in Figure 1. The flow is caused by the movement of the upper plate which has a velocity U, while the bottom plate is fixed. If U =3 m/s and b= 2.2 cm, and there is no pressure gradient in the flow direction. Fig Q1: Flow between two plates. The bottom is fixed and the upper is moving. Work to 4 significant digits. Enter all values using base units or their combinations, i.e. m, m/s, Pa, N. Do not use multiples as e.g. mm, kPa. You can use values with exponents, such as 0.12e3. a) Start with Navier-Stokes equations and determine the velocity at the point x = 5 cm and y= 0.53 cm. b) Calculate the magnitude of the vorticity at the same point. c) Calculate the rate of angular deformation at the same point.arrow_forwardA fish tank has dimensions 42 cm wide by 1.0 m long by 0.80 m high.If the filter should process all the water in the tank once every 3.0 h, what should the flow speed be in the 3.0-cm- diameter input tube for the filter?Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.arrow_forward

Note: For the flow of liquid to be continuous, its pressure must not drop below its vapor pressure. Assume the water is at 14°C, at which the vapor pressure is 1.6 kPa.arrow_forwardA thread of mercury of length 15cm is used to trap some air in a capillary tube with a uniform cross sectional area and closed at one end. With the tube vertically and the opened end uppermost, the length of the trapped air column is 20cm. Calculate the length of the air column when the tube is held I. Horizontally II.

If the cylinder extends 2 m above the free surface of the ocean, determine the depth of the cylinder (b) below the free surface of the ocean. Consider that the density of the ocean water is Pa = 1024 kg/m3 and the density of the iceberg ice is Ph = 935 kg/m3. Additionally, make a descriptive analysis on the stability of the mechanical equilibrium state of the iceberg, if a normal force is applied on one edge of the top cap of the iceberg, consider cylinder radi less than 2 m and greater than 2 m. 2marrow_forward
- Mercury is poured into a tall glass. Ethyl alcohol (which does not mix with mercury) is then poured on top of the mercury until the height of the ethyl alcohol itself is 110 cm. The air pressure at the top of the ethyl alcohol is one atmosphere.

What is the speed of the air passing through the wide (larger diameter) part of the Venturi tube? (Take the height difference value h = 6 inches)arrow_forwardWhat is the cause of air pressure? Why does the pressure a fluid exerts on the walls of its container decrease when the fluid starts to flow through the container (e.g. a piece of tubing)? Why is it impossible to pull a fluid? What does it mean to "entrain a fluid" into a flow? When the gauge on a cylinder of gas reads zero, is the cylinder actually empty? Explain.arrow_forward
