1. The head of water at the inlet of a pipe 2000 m long and 500 mm diameter is 60 m. A nozzle of diameter 100 mm at its outlet is fitted to the pipe. a) Determine the velocity of water at the outlet of the nozzle if friction coefficient for the pipe is 0.01.
A vertical circular stack 30 m high converges uniformly from a diameter of 6 m at the bottom and 4.5 m at the top. Gas with a unit weight of 0.12 N per cubic meter enters the bottom of the tank with a uniform velocity of—assume values with decimals between 3 to 4 m per second—enters the stack. The unit weight increases by 7.5 percent every 2 meters. Find the velocity of flow at every 5 meters along the stack. Please answer this with complete solutions and figure. Thanks

Consider a rectangular plate of width B = 1m (measured in the direction normal to the plane of this sheet) and negligible thickness, which separates two fluids of densities ρ and ρw. A mass of density ρs is supported by an inextensible rope that passes through a pulley connected to one end of the plate. Consider that ρ = 1.59ρw and ρs = 2.40ρw, where ρw = 1000 kg/m3. Determine the volume that this mass must have for the system to remain in equilibrium, as shown in the figure.
