A three-arm sprinkler is used to water a garden by rotating in a horizontal plane. Water enters the sprinkler along the axis of rotation at a rate of 40 L/s and leaves the 1.2-cm-diameter nozzles in the tangential direction. The central sprinkler bearing applies a retarding torque of 50 N-m due to friction at the anticipated operating speeds. Part A For a normal distance of 40 cm between the axis of rotation and the center of the nozzles, determine the rate of rotation of the sprinkler. Express your answer to three significant figures.

A 90° elbow is directs water upwards into the atmosphere from a horizontal pipe with a diameter of 12 cm that is flowing at 20 L/s. The elevation difference between the centers of the exit and the inlet of the elbow is 35 cm. If the weight of the elbow and the water in it are negligible, and assuming a momentum-flux correction factor of 1.03, determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place.
A hydroelectric power plant uses Pelton-type turbines, in which multiple nozzles are used to accelerate the waterwhich is directed onto the turbine blades, which are exposed to an atmospheric pressure of 101.325 kPa. The water enters the nozzles with an absolute pressure of 500 kPa and a speed of 5 m/s, and the nozzle outlets are exposed to atmospheric pressure and have an internal diameter of 5 cm. Consider that the specific mass of water is 1,000 kg/m3. Determine the mass flow rate of water through each of the nozzles, and explain why the actual mass flow rate will be lower.
A 90" elbow is used to direct water flow at a rate of 0,025 m3/s in a horizontal pipe upward. The diameter of the entire elbow is 10 cm. The elbow discharges water into the atmosphere, and thus the pressure at the exit is the local atmospheric pressure. The elevation difference betwoen the centers of the exit and the inlet of the elbow is 35 cm. The weight of the elbow and the water in it is considered to be negligible. Determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place A) 27 N 3433.5 N C) 79.5 N D) 132. 9 E) 106. 5 N
Water flowing in a horizontal 25-cm-diameter pipe at 8 m/s and 300 kPa gage enters a 90° bend reducing section, which connects to a 15-cm-diameter vertical pipe. The inlet of the bend is 50 cm above the exit. Neglecting any frictional and gravitational effects, determine the net resultant force exerted on the reducer by the water. Take the momentum-flux correction factor to be 1.04.
A reducing elbow is used to deflect water flow at 25 L/s in a horizontal pipe upward by an angle of=45° from the flow direction while accelerating it. The elbow discharges water into the atmosphere. The diameter of the elbow is 15 cm at the inlet and 5 cm at the exit. The elevation difference between the center of the exit and inlet is 40 cm. The mass of the elbow and the water in it is 40 kg. Determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place, assuming a momentum-flux correction factor of 1.03.
A U-tube acts like a water siphon. The elbow in the tube is 1 m above the water surface, the tube outlet is L from point A below. When the length L is 5 m, the water emerges from the bottom of the siphon as free jet at atmospheric pressure. Determine the speed of the free jet and the minimum absolute pressure of the water at the elbow. (Patm= 101325 Pa, dsu=1000 kg/m3)
Water is flowing through a 15-cm-diameter pipe that consists of a 3-m-long vertical and 2-m-long horizontal section with a 90° elbow at the exit to force the water to be discharged downward, as shown, in the vertical direction. Water discharges to atmospheric air at a velocity of 5 m/s, and the mass of the pipe section when filled with water is 17 kg per meter length. Determine the moment acting at the intersection of the vertical and horizontal sections of the pipe (point A). What would your answer be if the flow were discharged upward instead of downward?
The impeller of a centrifugal blower has a radius of 15 cm and a blade width of 6.1 cm at the inlet, and a radius of 30 cm and a blade width of 3.4 cm at the outlet. The blower delivers atmospheric air at 20°C and 95 kPa. Disre- garding any losses and assuming the tangential components of air velocity at the inlet and the outlet to be equal to the impeller velocity at respective locations, determine the volu- metric flow rate of air when the rotational speed of the shaft is 800 rpm and the power consumption of the blower is 120 W. Also determine the normal components of velocity at the inlet and outlet of the impeller.
Water enters a two-armed lawn sprinkler along the vertical axis at a rate of 75 L/s, and leaves the sprinkler nozzles as 2-cm diameter jets at an angle of ? from the tangential direction, as shown.
