The drag on an airplane wing in flight is known to be a function of the density of air (), the viscosity of air(), the free-stream velocity (U), a characteristic dimension of the wing (s), and the shear stress on the surface of the wing (s). Show that the dimensionless drag, sU2, can be expressed as a function of the Reynolds number, Us.
A differential equation encountered in the vibration of beams is d4ydx4=2D where x = distance measured along the beam; [x]=[L] y = displacement of the beam; [y]=[L] = circular frequency of vibration; []=[T1] = mass of the beam per unit length; []=[ML1] D = bending rigidity of beam; [D]=[FL2] Show that the equation is dimensionally homogeneous. Note that [F]=[MLT2] see Eq. (1.21:).
• A uniform aluminum beam 9.00 m long, weighing 300 N, rests symmetrically on two supports 5.00 m apart (Fig. E11.14). A boy weighing 600 N starts at point A and walks toward the right. (a) In the same diagram construct two graphs showing the upward forces FA and FB exerted on the beam at points A and B, as functions of the coordinate x of the boy. Let 1 cm = 100 N vertically and 1 cm = 1.00 m horizontally. (b) From your diagram, how far beyond point B can the boy walk before the beam tips? (c) How far from the right end of the beam should support B be placed so that the boy can walk just to the end of the beam
Mountaineersoften use a rope to lower themselvesdown the face of a cliff (this is called rappelling).They do this with their body nearly horizontaland their feet pushing against the cliff. Suppose that an 82.0 kg climber,who is 1.90 m tall and has a center of gravity1.1 m from his feet, rappels down a verticalcliff with his body raised 35.0° above the horizontal.He holds the rope 1.40 m from his feet,and it makes a 25.0° angle with the cliff face.(a) What tension does his rope need to support?(b) Find the horizontal and vertical componentsof the force that the cliff face exerts on theclimber’s feet. (c) What minimum coefficientof static friction is needed to prevent the climber’sfeet from slipping on the cliff face if he hasone foot at a time against the cliff?
The data below is from a passenger hot air balloon. The balloon is designed to lift 10-people (80 kg each person). The balloon consists of a basket, a burner- propane tank system. It will lift up when the cold air trapped inside warms up by the burner. Density of air inside the balloon is 99°C: 0.9486 kg/m³, density of air outside balloon is 20°C (ambient): 1.2041 kg/m³, Assume the balloon is a sphere shape, volume =(4/3)pi R3 Mass (kg) Balloon Basket Burner Propane tank 113.4 kg 63.5 kg 22.7 kg 183.7 kg a) Determine the minimum diameter of the balloon that would have a total lifting force to balance the weight of balloon, basket, burner, propane tank and 10 people? b) If the balloon is converted to survey the weather, it will be filled with hydrogen gas (H2). Assume the weight of the people (800kg) is now replaced by onboard equipment, what is minimum diameter needed to keep it afloat at 18km above the surface of the earth?
1. A non-uniform is 4.5m long and weighs 640N. It is balance when a 270N weight is hung 0.800m from the light end of the bar and the bar is pivoted at its center. Where is the center of gravity of the bar? 2.Two workers carry a non-uniform beam weighing 730N. The beam is 2.6m long and its center of gravity is 1.1 m from one end. If the workers hold the beam at its end, how much does each worker lift?
01: A 105cm Rod is suspended on a wall with a 5N force pulling upwards, 110 degrees away from the horizontal axis and 5cm from a 50kgm hanging object. Find the location of the C.G. away from the wall. Neglect the Mass of the rod and consider it a rigid body. Assume SSLC. 02: Considering a CCW movement is Positive, what is the total value of the Negative Moments at the point with the 50kgm object?

This exercise is part of a series of problems aimed at modeling a situation by progressively refining our model to take into account more and more parameters. This progressive approach is very close to whatwhat do professional scientists do! contextWe want to lower a suspended load in a controlled way, so that it hits the ground with a speed whose modulus is not too great. To slow down the descent, we added a resort behind the mass (A), Lasuspended load (B) is connected by a rope passing through a pulley to another mass (A), which slides on a horizontal surface with friction.InformationThe masses of loads A and B are known.The mass of the rope itself is negligible (very small compared to the loads).The pulley has negligible mass and can rotate without friction.Load B is initially stationary and is at a known height h.The surface on which mass A is placed is horizontal.There is friction under mass A: the kinetic friction coefficient u, is known.The rope attached to mass A is perfectly…

A 45 grams (0.045 kg) golf ball of diameter equal to 43 mm fell into a 2m deep lake. Neglect inertia at the moment of impact. Assume viscosity of 1.12x10-3 Ns/m2 , water density of 1,000 kg/m3 and Cd=0.5. Sphere volume equals 4π r³ /3. 1. How long will it take from the moment it hits the surface until it gets to the bottom? 2. If one estimates the Cd with Cd=24/Re formula, the settling velocity would be unrealistically large. Why?
