Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The volume flow rateQ is 0.0776m3/s.

(b) The mass flow rate m is m=69.8kg/s.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

ÒÏ is the density of the liquid, ÒÏ=900kg/m3

The cross-sectional area at region A,A=1.90×10-2m2

The cross-sectional area at region B,a=9.50×10-2m2

The pressure difference, ΔP=7.20×103Pa.

Understanding the concept of Bernoulli’s equation

By using Bernoulli's equation and the equation of continuity, find the speed of a given liquid V. Then by using the calculated value of the speed of a given liquidV, find the value of the volume flow rate Q. Then, using the value of volume flow rate Q, find the mass flow rate mof the liquid. According to Bernoulli's equation, the speed of a moving fluid increases, and the pressure within the fluid decreases.

Formulae are as follows:

i) According to Bernoulli's equation and the equation of continuity, the speed of a given liquid Vat regions Aand Bis

V=2a2ΔpÒÏa2-A2.

ii) Rate of flow of water Q,Q=VA.

iii) The mass flow rate m,p↑

Where, p is pressure, V is velocity, h is height, g is an acceleration due to gravity, h is height, A,a are areas, Q is the rate of flow, m is mass flow rate, and ÒÏ is density.

(a) Determining the volume flow rate Q

According to Bernoulli's equation and the equation of continuity, the speed of a given liquid Vat regions AandBis,

V=2a2ΔpÒÏa2-A2

By using the given values in the above equation,

V=29.50×10-2m22×7.20×103Pa900kg/m39.50×102m22-1.90×10-2m22

=129960077976

=4.0825m/s

The volume flow rate Qis,

Q=VA

Q=4.0825×1.90×102

Q=0.0775675m3/s

≈0.0776m3/s

Hence, the volume flow rate Q is 0.0776m3/s.

04

(b) Determining the mass flow rate m

The volume flow rate Qis,

Q=mÒÏ

ÒÏQ=900kg/m3×0.0775675m3/s

=69.8108kg/s

≈69.8kg/s

Hence, the mass flow rate m is 69.8kg/s.

Figure 14-54 shows a stream of water flowing through a hole at depthh=10cmin a tank holding water to heightH=40cm. (a) At what distance xdoes the stream strike the floor? (b) At what depth should a second hole be made to give the same value of x? (c) At what depth should a hole be made to maximize x?

The maximum depth dmaxthat a diver can snorkel is set by the density of the water and the fact that human lungs can function against a maximum pressure difference (between inside and outside the chest cavity) of 0.050atm.What is the difference indmaxfor fresh water and the water of the Dead Sea (the saltiest natural water in the world, with a density of1.5×103kg/m3)?

In analyzing certain geological features, it is often appropriate to assume that the pressure at some horizontal level of compensation, deep inside Earth, is the same over a large region and is equal to the pressure due to the gravitational force on the overlying material. Thus, the pressure on the level of compensation is given by the fluid pressure formula. This model requires, for one thing, that mountains have roots of continental rock extending into the denser mantle (Figure). Consider a mountain of heightH=6.0kmkm on a continent of thickness T=32km. The continental rock has a density of2.9g/cm3 , and beneath this rock the mantle has a density of 3.3g/cm3. Calculate the depth of the root. (Hint: Set the pressure at points a and b equal; the depth y of the level of compensation will cancel out.)

The intake in Figure has cross-sectional area of 0.74m2and water flow at 0.40ms. At the outlet, distance D=180mbelow the intake, the cross-sectional area is smaller than at the intake, and the water flows out at 9.5ms into the equipment. What is the pressure difference between inlet and outlet?

A venturi meter is used to measure the flow speed of a fluid in a pipe. The meter is connected between two sections of the pipe (Figure); the cross-sectional area Aof the entrance and exit of the meter matches the pipe's cross-sectional area. Between the entrance and exit, the fluid flows from the pipe with speed Vand then through a narrow "throat" of cross-sectional area a with speed v. A manometer connects the wider portion of the meter to the narrower portion. The change in the fluid's speed is accompanied by a change Δpin the fluid's pressure, which causes a height difference hof the liquid in the two arms of the manometer. (Here Δpmeans pressure in the throat minus pressure in the pipe.) (a) By applying Bernoulli's equation and the equation of continuity to points 1 and 2 in Figure, show that V=2a2∧pÒÏ(a2-A2), where ÒÏis the density of the fluid.

(b) Suppose that the fluid is fresh water, that the cross-sectional areas are 64cm2in the pipe and 32cm2in the throat, and that the pressure is 55kPain the pipe and 41kPain the throat. What is the rate of water flow in cubic meters per second?
