Chapter 1: Q39E (page 390)

Water is flowing in a pipe with a circular cross section but with varying cross-sectional area, and at all points the water completely fills the pipe. (a) At one point in the pipe the radius is 0.150 m. What is the speed of the water at this point if water is flowing into this pipe at a steady rate of 1.20 m3/s? (b) At a second point in the pipe the water speed is 3.80 m/s. What is the radius of the pipe at this point?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Speed of water = 17 m/s

Radius of pipe = 0.32 m

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

  • Radius of circle = 0.150 m
  • Flow rate of flow tube = 1.20m3/s
02

Significance of continuity equation

The continuity equation states that no matter where you are along the length of a pipe, the cross-sectional area and fluid velocity will always be the same, regardless of where you are.

03

Calculating speed of water

A1V1=A2V21.20m3s=A2V21.20m3s=蟺脳r2V2

Putting value in equation we get,

V2=1.20m3/s蟺脳0.150m2=17m/s

04

Calculating flow rate of flow tube

A1V1=A2V21.20m3s=A23.80ms1.20m3/s3.80m/s=A2=蟺脳r2r=0.32m

You normally drive on the freeway between San Diego and Los Angeles at an average speed of 105 km/h (65 mi/h), and the trip takes 1 h and 50 min. On a Friday afternoon, however, heavy traffic slows you down and you drive the same distance at an average speed of only 70 km/h (43 mi/h). How much longer does the trip take?

You throw a glob of putty straight up toward the ceiling,which is 3.60 m above the point where the putty leaves your hand.The initial speed of the putty as it leaves your hand is 9.50 m/s.

(a) What is the speed of the putty just before it strikes the ceiling?

(b) How much time from when it leaves your hand does it take theputty to reach the ceiling?

A car and a truck start from rest at the same instant, with the car initially at some distance behind the truck. The truck has a constant acceleration of20m/s2, and the car has an acceleration of3.40m/s2. The car overtakes the truck after the truck has moved60.0m. (a) How much time does it take the car to overtake the truck? (b) How far was the car behind the truck initially? (c) What is the speed of each when they are abreast? (d) On a single graph, sketch the position of each vehicle as a function of time. Takex=0at the initial location of the truck.
