The document contains 6 problems related to fluid mechanics. Problem 3.3 asks to integrate the axial velocity distribution of laminar flow through a long tube to find the total volume flow. Problem 3.4 asks to calculate the diameter of a nozzle given the inlet volume flow and desired average exit velocity of water from a fire hose. Problem 3.16 asks to compute the volume flow across the top surface of a flat plate with a cubic polynomial exit velocity profile. Problem 3.34 asks to calculate the exit velocity of combustion products from a rocket motor given operating conditions and molecular weight. Problem 3.36 asks to calculate the mixed exit velocity of a jet pump given the inlet velocities of the primary and secondary water flows.

P3.3 For steady low-Reynolds-number (laminar) flow through a long tube (see Prob. 1.

12), the axial velocity distribution is given by u = C(R2 r2), where R is the tube radius and r R. Integrate u(r) to find the total volume flow Q through the tube.

P3.4 A fire hose has a 5-in inside diameter and water is flowing at 600 gal/min. The flow exits through a nozzle contraction with a diameter Dn. For steady flow, what should Dn be, in inches, to create an average exit velocity of 25 m/s?

P3.16An incompressible fluid flows past an impermeable flat plate, as in Fig. P3.16, with a uniform inlet profile u = U0 and a cubic polynomial exit profile of the control volume Compute the volume flow Q across the top surface

P3.34 A rocket motor is operating steadily, as shown in Fig. P3.34. The products of combustion flowing out the exhaust nozzle approximate a perfect gas with a molecular weight of 28. For the given conditions calculate V2 in ft/s.

P3.36 The jet pump in Fig. P3.36 injects water at U1 = 40 m/s through a 3-in-pipe and entrains a secondary flow of water U2 = 3 m/s in the annular region around the small pipe. The two flows become fully mixed downstream, where U3 is approximately constant. For steady incompressible flow, compute U3 in m/s.
