Assignment # 5
1. Fluid with 65 lbm/ft3 density is flowing steadily through the
rectangular box shown. Given A1 = 0.5 ft2, A2 = 0.1 ft2, A3 = 0.6 ft2,
V1 = 10 ft/s and V2 = 20 ft/s, determine velocity V3. Draw the
control volume and then apply the conservation law for mass,
starting from the integral form of the equation. Show all steps.

2. Oil flows steadily in a thin layer down an inclined plane. The
velocity profile is
ρ𝑔𝑠𝑖𝑛θ 𝑦2
u= ℎ𝑦 −
μ 2
Express the mass flow rate per unit width in terms of ρ, μ, g, θ
and h. Draw the control volume and then apply the conservation
law for mass, starting from the integral form of the equation.
Show all steps.

3. Find the force required to hold the plug in place at the exit of
the water pipe. The flow rate is 1.5 m3/s and the upstream
pressure is 3.5 MPa. Draw the control volume and then apply the
conservation law for mass and momentum. Show all steps.

4. A vertical plate has a sharp-edged orifice at its center. A water
jet of speed V strikes the plate concentrically. Obtain an
expression for the external force needed to hold the plate in
place, if the jet leaving the orifice also has speed V. Evaluate the
force for V = 15 ft/s, D = 4 inch and d = 1 inch. Draw the control
volume and then apply the conservation law for mass and
momentum. Show all steps.
