Question: query introset change in pressure from velocity change.

Explain how to get the change in fluid pressure given the initial and final fluid velocities, assuming constant altitude

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

Using Bernoulli's equation:

P1+1/2*rho*V1^2+rho*g*h= P2+1/2*rho*V2^2+rho*g*h

If the altitudes are the same, the rho*g*h both cancel out so you're left with:

P1+1/2*rho*V1^2= P2+1/2*rho*V2^2

So the change in fluid pressure is equal to:

P2-P1= 1/2*rho*(V2^2-V1^2)

confidence rating #$&*:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

Bernoulli's Equation can be written

•1/2 rho v1^2 + rho g y1 + P1 = 1/2 rho v2^2 + rho g y2 + P2

If altitude is constant then y1 = y2, so that rho g y1 is the same as rho g y2. Subtracting this quantity from both sides, these

terms disappear, leaving us

•1/2 rho v1^2 + P1 = 1/2 rho v2^2 + P2.

The difference in pressure is P2 - P1. If we subtract P1 from both sides, as well as 1/2 rho v2^2, we get

•1/2 rho v1^2 - 1/2 rho v2^2 = P2 - P1.

Thus

•change in pressure = P2 - P1 = 1/2 rho ( v1^2 - v2^2 ).

Caution: (v1^2 - v2^2) is not the same as (v1 - v2)^2. Convince yourself of that by just picking two unequal and nonzero numbers

for v1 and v2, and evaluating both sides.

ALTERNATIVE FORMULATION

Assuming constant rho, Bernoulli's Equation can be written

1/2 rho `d(v^2) + rho g `dy + `dP = 0.

If altitude is constant, then `dy = 0 so that

1/2 rho `d(v^2) + `dP = 0

so that

`dP = - 1/2 rho `d(v^2).

Caution: `d(v^2) means change in v^2, not the square of the change in v. So `d(v^2) = v2^2 - v1^2, not (v2 - v1)^2.

STUDENT SOLUTION: The equation for this situation is Bernoulli's Equation, which as you note is a modified KE+PE equation.

Considering ideal conditions with no losses

(rho*gy)+(0.5*rho*v^2)+(P) = 0

g= acceleration due to gravity

y=altitude

rho=density of fluid

v=velocity

P= pressure

Constant altitude causes the first term to go to 0 and disappear.

(0.5*rho*v^2)+(P) = constant

So here is where we are:

Since the altitude h is constant, the two quantities .5 rho v^2 and P are the only things that can change. The sum 1/2 `rho v^2 + P

must remain constant. Since fluid velocity v changes, it therefore follows that P must change by a quantity equal and opposite to

the change in 1/2 `rho v^2.

MORE FORMAL SOLUTION:

More formally we could write

· 1/2 `rho v1^2 + P1 = 1/2 `rho v2^2 + P2

and rearrange to see that the change in pressure, P2 - P1, must be equal to the change 1/2 `rho v2^2 - 1/2 `rho v1^2 in .5 rho v^2:

· P2 - P1 = 1/2 `rho v2^2 - 1/2 `rho v1^2 = 1/2 rho (v2^2 - v1^2). **

Question: query billiard experiment

Do you think that on the average there is a significant difference between the total KE in the x direction and that in the y

direction? Support your answer.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution: No, I don't think there is a significant difference. If you watch the simulation for long enough, at some points it

seems that the KE in the x direction is higher than the y and other times it seems that the KE in the y direction is greater than

that in the x. However, this is constantly changing so I think it sort of balances itself out, making the difference not very

significant.

Given Solution:

** In almost every case the average of 30 KE readings in the x and in the y direction differs between the two directions by less

than 10% of either KE. This difference is not statistically significant, so we conclude that the total KE is statistically the same

in bot directions. **

Question: What do you think are the average velocities of the 'red' and the 'blue' particles and what do you think it is about

the 'blue' particle that makes is so?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution: The 'red' particle seems to be moving at a 1 or 2 speed. Since it shows the mass of the red particle to be 64, I

assume it moves so slow because the force of the lighter particles aren't having much effect on it. The light blue particles seem to

move at a speed of about 3 or 4. The light blue particles (there are only two of them) are the second heaviest in weight and move a

little faster than the red but not much faster. They seem to be effected more by the impact of the green and dark blue particles

than the red particle is.

confidence rating #$&*:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

** Student answer with good analogy: I did not actually measure the velocities. the red were much faster. I would assume that the

blue particle has much more mass a high velocity impact from the other particles made very little change in the blue particles

velocity. Similar to a bycycle running into a Mack Truck.

INSTRUCTOR NOTE: : It turns out that average kinetic energies of red and blue particles are equal, but the greater mass of the

blue particle implies that it needs less v to get the same KE (which is .5 mv^2) **

Your Self-Critique: I think this solution must be from an old simulation. Because the mass of my red particle is greater than the

mass of my two blue particles.

Given Solution:

** STUDENT ANSWER: Considering the random motion at various angles of impact.It would likely be a very rare event.

INSTRUCTOR COMMENT

This question requires a little fundamental probability but isn't too difficult to understand:

If particle position is regarded as random the probability of a particle being on one given side of the screen is 1/2. The

probability of 2 particles both being on a given side is 1/2 * 1/2. For 3 particles the probability is 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8. For

100 particlles the probability is 1 / 2^100, meaning that you would expect to see this phenomenon once in 2^100 screens. If you saw

10 screens per second this would take about 4 * 10^21 years, or just about a trillion times the age of the Earth.

In practical terms, then, you just wouldn't expect to see it, ever. **

Your Self-Critique: I didn't think of setting it up as a probability. But I understand why this is useful and it supports my idea

that this would never happen.

Question: prin phy and gen phy problem 10.36 15 cm radius duct replentishes air in 9.2 m x 5.0 m x 4.5 m room every 16 minutes;

how fast is air flowing in the duct?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

confidence rating #$&*:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

The volume of the room is 9.2 m * 5.0 m * 4.5 m = 210 m^3.

This air is replentished every 16 minutes, or at a rate of 210 m^3 / (16 min * 60 sec/min) = 210 m^3 / (960 sec) = .22 m^3 / second.

The cross-sectional area of the duct is pi r^2 = pi * (.15 m)^2 = .071 m^2.

The speed of the air flow and the velocity of the air flow are related by

rate of volume flow = cross-sectional area * speed of flow, so

speed of flow = rate of volume flow / cross-sectional area = .22 m^3 / s / (.071 m^2) = 3.1 m/s, approx.

Question: prin phy and gen phy problem 10.40 What gauge pressure is necessary to maintain a firehose stream at an altitude of 15

m?

.......................................

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

confidence rating #$&*:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

** We use Bernoulli's equation. Between the water in the hose before it narrows to the nozzle and the 15m altitude there is a

vertical change in position of 15 m.

Between the water in the hose before it narrows to the nozzle and the 15 m altitude there is a vertical change in position of 15 m.

Assuming the water doesn't move all that fast before the nozzle narrows the flow, and noting that the water at the top of the stream

has finally stopped moving for an instant before falling back down, we see that we know the two vertical positions and the

velocities (both zero, or very nearly so) at the two points.

All that is left is to calculate the pressure difference. The pressure of the water after its exit is simply atmospheric pressure,

so it is fairly straightforward to calculate the pressure inside the hose using Bernoulli's equation.

Assuming negligible velocity inside the hose we have

change in rho g h from inside the hose to 15 m height: `d(rho g h) = 1000 kg/m^3 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 15 m = 147,000 N / m^2, approx.

Noting that the velocity term .5 `rho v^2 is zero at both points, the change in pressure is `dP = - `d(rho g h) = -147,000 N/m^2.

Since the pressure at the 15 m height is atmospheric, the pressure inside the hose must be 147,000 N/m^2 higher than atmospheric. **

Question: query gen phy problem 10.43 net force on 240m^2 roof from 35 m/s wind.

What is the net force on the roof?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

confidence rating #$&*:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

** air with density around 1.29 kg/m^3 moves with one velocity above the roof and essentially of 0 velocity below the roof. Thus

there is a difference between the two sides of Bernoulli's equation in the quantity 1/2 `rho v^2. At the density of air `rho g h

isn't going to amount to anything significant between the inside and outside of the roof. So the difference in pressure is equal and

opposite to the change in 1/2 `rho v^2.

On one side v = 0, on the other v = 35 m/s, so the difference in .5 rho v^2 from inside to out is

`d(.5 rho v^2) = 0.5(1.29kg/m^3)*(35m/s)^2 - 0 = 790 N/m^2.

The difference in the altitude term is, as mentioned above, negligible so the difference in pressure from inside to out is

`dP = - `d(.5 rho v^2) = -790 N/m^2.

The associated force is 790 N/m^2 * 240 m^2 = 190,000 N, approx. **

Question: `q001. Explain how to get the change in velocity from a change in pressure, given density and initial velocity, in a

situation where altitude does not change.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

Looking at Bernoulli's Law that states the sum of 0.5*rho*v1^2+rho*g*h+P= 0.5*rho*v2^2+rho*g*h+P, you can see that if the altitude

does not change, it will cancel out. Then the equation will look like this:

0.5*rho*v1^2+P1= 0.5*rho*v2^2+P2

So, knowing the change in pressure, you can solve for the change in velocity. Shown below:

0.5*rho*v1^2-0.5*rho*v2^2= P1-P2

You can see that the change in velocity will be equal but opposite signs of the change in pressure.

Question: `q002. Water is moving inside a garden hose at 4 meters / second, and it exits the nozzle at 8 meters / second.

Neglecting the effect of air resistance:

How high would the stream be expected to rise if the hose was pointed straight upward?

How far would the stream travel in the horizontal direction before falling back to the level of the nozzle, if directed at 45

degrees above horizontal?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

The stream would be expected to rise to a height of 3.265 meters. I solved this by treating the water as a projectile.

Explanation below:

Since the hose is pointed straight upward these are the velocities, acceleration, and distance in the y direction (f & i stand for

final & initial).

Vf^2= Vi^2+2a(yf-yi)

0^2= 8^2+2*-9.8*(yf-0)

The final velocity is zero because this is where the water stops going up and starts going down, the y initial is zero because this

is where the water is first exiting the hose, the initial velocity is 8 m/s because you are told the water exits the nozzle at 8

m/s.

Now solving for yf, the height that the water travels up, you get:

-64= -19.6(yf)

-64/-19.6= yf

So you get the height the water rises (yf) to be 3.26 meters.

To solve for the horizontal distance the stream would travel if it were directed at a 45 degree angle you start by finding the

velocities in the x and y direction since you're given the initial velocity. You draw a right triangle and the given velocity (8

m/s) is the hypotenuse and the horizontal leg is the x direction, the vertical leg is the y direction and the angle is theta. Using

sin and cosine you can find the velocity initial in the x direction (8cos45= 5.66 m/s) and the velocity initial in the y direction

(8sin45= 5.66 m/s). You also know the velocity in the y direction when it comes back to the nozzle because it is equal and opposite

to the velocity at which it left the nozzle. So the final velocity (the velocity that the water gets back to the nozzle) in the y

direction is equal to -5.66 m/s.

Using the kinematics equation below (for the y components) you can find the time the water travels (which is the same for both x and

y components) and use it to solve for the distance x:

Vf= Vi+a*t

5.66= -5.66+9.8*t

t= 1.155 seconds

Now plugging in the time to the kinematics equation for the x components you can find the distance in x the water travels:

x= Vi*t+1/2*a*t

The acceleration in the x direction is zero so you're left with:

x= Vi*t

You know the initial velocity in the x direction (Vi) & you just solved for t so you have for x:

x= 5.66*1.155

x= 6.54 meters.

Question: univ phy problem 12.77 / 14.75 (11th edition 14.67): prove that if weight in water if f w then density of gold is 1 /

(1-f). Meaning as f -> 0, 1, infinity. Weight of gold in water if 12.9 N in air. What if nearly all lead and 12.9 N in air?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

T=f*w

Buoyant force plus tension in the rope is equal to the weight of the object.

f*w+ density of water*g*volume= w

where volume equals:

V= w/(density of the crown*g)

f*w=w-[density of water*g*(w/density of crown*g)]

Now dividing out the w's and canceling the g's:

f=1-(density of water/density of crown)

Relative density is the ratio between density of the object and density of water:

Relative density= density of the crown/density of the water= 1/(1-f)

The relative density of gold is 19.3 and the weight is 12.9 N so the apparent weight is f*w=(1-1/19.3)*(12.9 N )= 12.2 N

For lead in part C Fw=(1-1/11.3)*(12.9 N)= 11.8 N

confidence rating #$&*:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

** The tension in the rope supporting the crown in water is T = f w.

Tension and buoyant force are equal and opposite to the force of gravity so

T + dw * vol = w or f * dg * vol + dw * vol = dg * vol.

Dividing through by vol we have

f * dg + dw = dg, which we solve for dg to obtain

dg = dw / (1 - f).

Relative density is density as a proportion of density of water, so

relative density is 1 / (1-f).

For gold relative density is 19.3 so we have

1 / (1-f) = 19.3, which we solve for f to obtain

f = 18.3 / 19.3.

The weight of the 12.9 N gold crown in water will thus be

T = f w = 18.3 / 19.3 * 12.9 N = 12.2 N.

STUDENT SOLUTION:

After drawing a free body diagram we can see that these equations are true:

Sum of Fy =m*ay ,

T+B-w=0,

T=fw,

B=(density of water)(Volume of crown)(gravity).

Then

fw+(density of water)(Volume of crown)(gravity)-w=0.

(1-f)w=(density of water)(Volume of crown)(gravity).

Use

w==(density of crown)(Volume of crown)(gravity).

(1-f)(density of crown)(Volume of crown)(gravity) =(density of water)(Volume of crown)(gravity).

Thus, (density of crown)/(density of water)=1/(1-f). **

Question: univ phy What are the meanings of the limits as f approaches 0 and 1?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

When f approaches 0 the specific gravity approaches 1 and the crown would float.

When f approaches 1 the buoyant force would be negligible and the crown would sink.

Given Solution:

** GOOD STUDENT ANSWER: f-> 0 gives (density of crown)/(density of water) = 1 and T=0. If the density of the crown equals the

density of the water, the crown just floats, fully submerged, and the tension should be zero. When f-> 1, density of crown >>

density of water and T=w. If density of crown >> density of water then B is negligible relative to the weight w of the crown and T

should equal w. **

Question: `q003. Water exits a large tank through a hole in the side of a cylindrical container with vertical walls. The water

stream falls to the level surface on which the tank is resting. The tank is filled with water to depth y_max. The water stream

reaches the level surface at a distance x from the side of the container.

Without doing any calculations, explain why there must be at least one vertical position at which the hole could be placed to

maximize the distance x. Explain also why there must be distances x that could be achieved by at least two different vertical

positions for the hole.

Give all the possible vertical levels of the hole.

What is the maximum possible distance x at which it is possible for a water stream to reach the level surface, and where would the

hole have to be to achieve this?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

1. The distance x at which the water hits the ground is dependent upon two things, the velocity at which it exits the hole and the

height between water level and the hole so there's got to be a position that has the best combination of height (which means an

increase in time it takes to hit the level surface) and initial velocity.

@&

A stronger argument would start with the fact that at max height exit velocity would be zero, and at min height the drop would be zero, in both cases resulting in horizontal range zero.

A smooth non-negative function with exactly two distinct zeroes must have at least one maximum.

*@

@&

The physics dictates that the horizontal range is such a function of x.

*@

2. The distance x at which the water hits the ground is dependent upon two things, the velocity at which it exits the hole and the

height between water level and the hole. If you decrease the height between the water level and the hole, you are decreasing the

force due to pressure which is therefore decreasing the velocity at which the water exits. However, you are increasing the distance

from the level surface which provides more time for the water to travel. If you increase the height between the water level and the

hole, you are increasing the force due to pressure which is therefore increasing the velocity at which the water exits. However, you

are decreasing the distance from the level surface which decreases the time to travel. Since the x distance is dependent on the

velocity at which it exits the hole and the height between water level and the hole, if you have a higher velocity (smaller height

between water level and hole) it should hit a similar distance x if you were higher up with a lower velocity (this would give the

water more time to fall). This is shown by looking at the velocity in the x direction and the velocity in the y direction:

Vx= sqrt(2gh)

Vy=sqrt(2*9.8*(ymax-h))

Where h is the vertical distance from the level surface to the hole. Looking at these equations you can see that when you maximize

the h for example, you are maximizing your velocity in the x direction, but minimizing the velocity in the y direction.

3. All the vertical distances of the hole are anywhere between 0 and ymax.

4. The maximum possible distance x is solved below:

Vfy= sqrt(2*9.8*(ymax-h))

Vfy=Viy+ay*t

sqrt(2*9.8*(ymax-h))= 0+g*t

sqrt(2*9.8*(ymax-h))/g= t

Now using the time I solved for (which is the same for x components and y components) I plug it into the equation to solve for the

horizontal distance x:

x= Vix*t+1/2*a*t^2+xi

x= sqrt(2*g*h)*t

x= sqrt(2*g*h)*sqrt(2*9.8*(ymax-h)/g)

x= 2*sqrt(h*(ymax-h))

To find x max, I squared both sides (so I wasn't having to deal with square roots):

x^2= 4*h*(ymax-h)

Then, I took the derivative with respect to h & set it equal to zero:

0 = 4*ymax-8*h

Now solving for h:

h= ymax/2

Now plugging this value back into the equation for x I can solve for x max:

x= 2*sqrt(ymax/2*(ymax-ymax/2))

x= 2*sqrt(ymax/2*ymax/2)

x= 2*sqrt(ymax^2/4)

x= 2*ymax/2

x= ymax

This means that the maximum distance that the water can go horizontally (xmax) is equal to the vertical distance of the water level.
