Water flows smoothly in a horizontal pipe. Figure 14-27 shows the kinetic energy Kof a water element as it moves along an xaxis that runs along the pipe. Rank the three lettered sections of the pipe according to the pipe radius, greatest first.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The rank of the lettered sections of the pipe according to the pipe radius, greatest first isB>C>A .

Step by step solution

01

The given data 

Rank of KE:KEA>KEC>KEB

02

Understanding the concept of the kinetic energy

This problem is based on the continuity equation. Kinetic energy can be written in the form of the area by using a continuity equation. Thus, using this relation, we can get the required rank value.

Formulae:

The rate of flow of the fluid in terms of area and speed,Rv=Av (i)

The kinetic energy of a body in motion,KE=12mv2 (ii)

The mass of a body in terms of density,m=V (iii)

03

Calculation of the rank of the sections of the pipe according to the radius of the pipe

Substituting the value of mass from equation (iii) and velocity from equation (i) in equation (ii), we can get the kinetic energy equation as follows:

KE=12pVRvA2=VRv2221r4...............bA=蟺谤2

This equation shows that KE is inversely proportional to4th power of the radius of the pipe. Thus, KE is minimum when radius will be maximum.

Therefore, rank of sections according to radius, greatest first isB>C>A .

Question: What would be the height of the atmosphere if the air density (a) were uniform and (b) What would be the height of the atmosphere if the air density were decreased linearly to zero with height? Assume that at sea level the air pressure is 1.0 atmand the air density is 1.3 /m3.

A cylindrical tank with a large diameter is filled with water to a depthD=0.30m. A hole of cross-sectional areaA=6.5cm2 in the bottom of the tank allows water to drain out.

(a) What is the rate at which water flows out, in cubic meters per second?

(b) At what distance below the bottom of the tank is the cross-sectional area of the stream equal to one-half the area of the hole?

When a person snorkels, the lungs are connected directly to the atmosphere through the snorkel tube and thus are at atmospheric pressure 1) In atmospheres, what is the differencepbetween this internal air pressure and the water pressure against the body if the length of the snorkel tube is 20 cm (standard situation) &2) In atmospheres, what is the differencepbetween this internal air pressure and the water pressure against the body if the length of the snorkel tube is 4.0m(probably lethal situation)? In the latter, the pressure difference causes blood vessels on the walls of the lungs to rupture, releasing blood into the lungs. As depicted in Figure, an elephant can safely snorkel through its trunk while swimming with its lungsbelow the water surface because the membrane around its lungs contains connective tissue that holds and protects the blood vessels, preventing rupturing.

A piston of cross-sectional area a is used in a hydraulic press to exert a small force of magnitude f on the enclosed liquid. A connecting pipe leads to a larger piston of cross-sectional area A (Figure). (a) What force magnitude F will the larger piston sustain without moving? (b) If the piston diameters are 3.80cmand 5.30cm, what force magnitude on the small piston will balance a 20.0kN force on the large piston ?

The water flowing through a 1.9cm(inside diameter) pipe flows out through three 1.3cmpipes. (a) If the flow rates in the three smaller pipes are 26, 19, and localid="1657628147057" 11Lmin, what is the flow rate in the1.9cmpipe? (b) What is the ratio of the speed in the localid="1657628193484" 1.9cmpipe to that in the pipe carrying localid="1657628220414" 26Lmin?
