A soft drink (mostly water) flows in a pipe at a beverage plant with a mass flow rate that would fill 220 0.355-L cans per minute. At point 2 in the pipe, the gauge pressure is 152 kPa and the cross-sectional area is 8.00 cm2. At point 1, 1.35 m above point 2, the cross-sectional area is 2.00 cm2. Find the (a) mass flow rate; (b) volume flow rate; (c) flow speeds at points 1 and 2; (d) gauge pressure at point 1.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The mass flow rate is 1.30 kg/s .

(b) The volume flow rate is 1.30 L/s .

(c) The flow speeds at point 1 and 2 are 6.5 m/s and 1.62 m/s respectively.

(d) The gauge pressure at point 1 is1.45×103Pa .

Step by step solution

01

Given data

  • The volume of 220 cans per minute isdVdt=2200.355L60s.
  • The gauge pressure isP2=152kPa.
  • The distance above point 2 ish2=1.35m.
  • The cross-sectional area at point 2 isA2=8cm2.
  • The cross-sectional area at point 1 isA1=2cm2.

Concept of the mass flow rate

In this problem, the relation between density and mass will be used to find the mass flow rate. According to the relation, density is equal to the fraction of mass and volume.

03

(a) Determination of the mass flow rate

The relation of mass flow rate can be written as:

ÒÏ=mË™dVdtmË™=ÒÏ×dVdt

Here, is the density of water.

Substitute2200.355L60s fordVdt and 1 kg/L for p in the above relation.

m˙=(1kg/L)×(220)(0.355L)60sm˙=1.30kg/s

Thus, the mass flow rate is1.30kg/s .

04

(b) Determination of the volume flow rate

The relation of volume flow rate can be written as:

dVdt=(220)(0.355L)60s

On further solving the above relation.

dVdt=78.1L60sdVdt=1.30L/s

Thus, the volume flow rate is 1.30 L/s .

05

(c) Determination of the flow speed at point 1 and 2

The relation of flow speed can be written as:

V1=dVdtA1

Substitute 1.30 L/s fordVdt and2cm2 forA1 in the above relation.

v1=1.30L/s×1m3/s1000L/s2cm2×1m2104cm2v1=6.5m/s

The relation of flow speed can be written as:

v2=dVdtA2

Substitute 1.30 L/s fordVdt and8cm2 forA2 in the above relation.

v2=1.30L/s×1m3/s1000L/s8cm2×1m2104cm2v2=1.62m/s

Thus, the flow speed at point 1 and 2 is 6.5 m/s and 1.62 m/s respectively.

06

(d) Determination the gauge pressure at point 1

The relation from Bernoulli’s equation can be written as:

P1+12ÒÏv12=P2+12ÒÏv22+ÒÏgh2∣

Here, g is the gravitational acceleration andP2 is the required gauge pressure.

Substitute 152kPafor P2, 1000kg/m3for ÒÏ, 6.5 m/s for v1, 1.62 m/s for v2, 9.8m/s2for g and 1.35m forh2 the above relation.

P1+121000kg/m3(6.5m/s)2=152kPa×103Pa1kPa+121000kg/m3(1.62m/s)2+1000kg/m39.80m/s2(1.35m)P1=145×103Pa

Thus, the gauge pressure is145×103Pa .

While driving in an exotic foreign land, you see a speed limit sign that reads 180,000 furlongs per fortnight. How many miles per hour is this? (One furlong is 1/8 mile, and a fortnight is 14 days. A furlong originally referred to the length of a plowed furrow.)

The following conversions occur frequently in physics and are very useful. (a) Use 1 mi = 5280 ft and 1 h = 3600 s to convert 60 mph to units of ft/s. (b) The acceleration of a freely falling object is 32 ft/s2. Use 1 ft = 30.48 cm to express this acceleration in units of m/s2. (c) The density of water is 1.0 g/cm3. Convert this density to units of kg/m3.

A Simple Reaction-Time Test.A meter stick is held vertically above your hand, with the lower end between your thumb and first finger. When you see the meter stick released, you grab it with those two fingers. You can calculate your reaction time from the distance the meter stick falls, read directly from the point where your fingers grabbed it. (a) Derive a relationship for your reaction time in terms of this measured distance, d. (b) If the measured distance is 17.6 cm, what is your reaction time?

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.
