Water flows steadily from an open tank as in Fig. P12.81. The elevation of point 1 is 10.0 m, and the elevation of points 2 and 3 is 2.00 m. The cross-sectional area at point 2 is 0.0480 m2; at point 3 it is 0.0160 m2. The area of the tank is very large compared with the cross-sectional area of the pipe. Assuming that Bernoulli’s equation applies, compute (a) the discharge rate in cubic meters per second and (b) the gauge pressure at point 2.

Answer

  1. The discharge rate is, 0.20 m3/s .
  2. The gauge pressure at point 2 is, 6.97 x 104 Pa.

Step by step solution

01

Step-by-Step Solution Step 1: Identification of the given data

The given data can be listed below as,

  • The elevation of point 1 is, h1= 10.0m .
  • The elevation of point 2 and 3 is.h2= h3= 2.0m .
  • The cross-sectional area at point 2 is, A2= 0.0480m2 .
  • The cross-sectional area at point 3 is. A3= 0.0160m2.

Determination of the discharge rate

Part (a)

The speed of efflux is expressed as,

v=2gh

Here h is the distance of the hole below the surface of the fluid, and g is the gravitational acceleration.

The elevation at point 3 is,

h=h1−h3

The velocity at point 3 is expressed as,

v3=2gh1−h3

Here, v3 is the velocity of water at point 3.

The discharge rate at point 3 is expressed as,

QË™=A3v3

Substitute the value of v3 in the above equation.

Q˙=A3v3Q˙=A3×2gh1−h3

Substitute 0.0160″¾2forA3,9.81″¾/s2forg, 10.0 m for h1 and 2.0 m for h3 in the above equation.

QË™=0.0160″¾2×2×9.81″¾/s2×10.0″¾-2.0″¾=0.0160″¾2×2×9.81″¾/s2×8.0″¾=0.0160″¾2×12.52″¾/s=0.20″¾3/s

Hence the discharge rate is 0.20 m3/s.

03

Determination of the gauge pressure at point 2

Part (b)

At the point 3 the pressure is atmospheric and point 2 the pressure is gauge pressure. The elevation for both points is same then, it is expressed as,

p2+12ÒÏv22+ÒÏgh2=p3+12ÒÏv32+ÒÏgh3p2=12ÒÏv32−v22=12ÒÏv321−v22v32

Here, v2 is the velocity of water at point 2.

For the continuity equation at point 2 and 3 is expressed as,

A2v2=A3v3v2v3=A3A2

Here A2 and A3 are the area at point 2 and 3.

This above equation put in gauge pressure equation.

p2=12ÒÏv321−A3A22

Substitute v3=2gh1−h3 in the above equation.

p2=12×ÒÏ×2gh1−h3×1−A3A22

Substitute 0.0160 m2 for A3 , 0.0480m2 for A2 , 9.81 m/s2for g, 1000kg/m3for ÒÏ , 10.0 m for h1and 2.0 for h3in the above equation.

p2=12×ÒÏ×2gh1−h3×1−0.0160″¾20.0480″¾22=89×ÒÏ×gh1−h3=89×1000 k²µ/m3×9.81″¾/s2×10.0″¾âˆ’2.0″¾=6.97×104 P²¹

Hence, the gauge pressure at point 2 is 6.97 x 104 Pa .

A helium filled balloon is tied to a light string inside a car at rest. The other end of the string is attached to the floor of the car, so the balloon pulls the string vertical. The car now accelerates forward. Does the balloon move? If so, does it move forward or backward? Justify your reasoning with references to buoyancy (if you have a chance, try this experiment yourself but with someone else driving !).

In 2005 astronomers announced the discovery of large black hole in the galaxy Markarian 766 having clumps of matter orbiting around once every27 hours and moving at30,000 km/s . (a) How far these clumps from the center of the black hole? (b) What is the mass of this black hole, assuming circular orbits? Express your answer in kilogram and as a multiple of sun’s mass. (c) What is the radius of event horizon?

Mass Mis distributed uniformly over a disk of radius a. Find the

gravitational force (magnitude and direction) between this disk-shaped mass

and a particle with mass mlocated a distance xabove the centre of the disk

(Fig. P13.81). Does your result reduce to the correct expression as xbecomes

very large? (Hint:Divide the disk into infinitesimally thin concentric rings, use

the expression derived in Exercise 13.35 for the gravitational force due to each

ring, and integrate to find the total force.)

On a training flight, a student pilot flies from Lincoln, Nebraska, to Clarinda, Iowa, next to St. Joseph, Missouri, and then to Manhattan, Kansas

(Fig. P1.66). The directions are shown relative to north: 0°is north, 90°is east, 180°is south, and 270°is west. Use the method of components to find (a) the distance she has to fly from Manhattan to get back to Lincoln, and (b) the direction (relative to north) she must fly to get there. Illustrate your solutions with a vector diagram.

The planet Uranus has a radius of 25360 k³¾and a surface acceleration due to gravity of9.0″¾/s2at its poles. Its moon Miranda (discovered by Kuiper in 1948) is in a circular orbit about Uranus at an altitude of 104000 k³¾above the planet’s surface. Miranda has a mass of6.6×1019 k²µand a radius of 236km(a) Calculate the mass of Uranus from the given data. (b) Calculate the magnitude of Miranda’s acceleration due to its orbital motion about Uranus. (c) Calculate the acceleration due to Miranda’s gravity at the surface of Miranda. (d) Do the answers to parts (b) and (c) mean that an object releasedabove Miranda’s surface on the side toward Uranus will fall up relative to Miranda? Explain.
