Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.31P

Consider the milk container of Example 1.4.2 (Figure 1.4.7). A straw 9.5 cm long was inserted in the side of the container. While adjusting the tap flow to keep the water height Constant, the time for the outflow to fill a 250-ml cup was measured. This was repeated for several heights. The data are given in the following table.

Height  cm 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Time  s 6 6 6 7 8 9 9 11 13 17 21

Obtain a functional description of the volume outflow rate f through the straw as a function of water height h above the hole.

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?
PROPAGATION OF ERROR You are tasked to supervise the design of 0.5MW wind turbine to be constructed in a Wind Farm in Pililla, Rizal. Suppose the design criteria are as follows: The air density as surveyed after 2 year period averaged at 1.225 kg / cubic meter. The sweeping diameter of the rotor blades is 125m, and the anemometer reading in the area amounts to 4.2m/s on a 2 year period of survey. if the diameter measurement is off by 0.1m and the anemometer reading is also fluctuating by 0.05m/s. In the design specifications given, if the actual measurement of power via the substation amounts to exactly 530kW and given that the windspeed is off by 0.05m/s, what could have been the error in the measurement of diameter? Your answer must be in 3 decimal places and in correct signs and measurement.  Show complete solution in paper.
A cylindrical tank (1.20m in diameter) contains two liquids with the follow specific gravities:LIQUID 1: oil (s.g.oil = 0.80)LIQUID 2: water (s.g.water = 1.00)Each specified liquid has a thickness of 0.60m with the denser liquid at the bottom. If a circular office is placed at the bottom of the tank (100mm in diameter and with c = 0.65) to drain the fluids:   Compute for the time required to remove the denser liquid from the tank

    A physics lab consists of a large ball attached to a wire. Students hold on to one end of the wire, then whirl the ball around in circles and count the number of rotations per second. One group finds these numbers: ball mass= 320 gram, wire length= 1.3m, number of rotations/sec=2.5. The wire is made of steel with a diameter of 1mm and a Young's modulus of 20x10^10 N/m^2.How much does the wire stretch due to the tension on it? Should the students correct their data for the wire stretching?
    The speed of sound traveling through the sea is a function of temperature, salinity, and pressure. It is modeled by the function C = 1449.2 + 4.67T -0.055T² +0.00029T³ + (1.34-0.01T) (S-35) + 0.016D where C is the speed of sound (in meters per second), T is the temperature (in degrees Celsius), S is the salinity (the concentration of salts in parts per thousand, which means grams of dissolved solids per 1000 grams of water), and D is the depth below the sea surface, in meters. Calculate the following (Check attached image d3) when T = 10 °C, S = 35 parts per thousand, and D = 100 m. Explain the physical meaning of these derivatives.
  • A special case of a linear function occurs when we talk about direct variation. If the  quantities x and y are related by an equation y − kx for some constant k ± 0, we say that y varies directly as x, or y is proportional to x. The constant k is called the constant of proportionality. Equivalently, we can write fsxd − kx, where f is a linear function whose graph has slope k and y-intercept 0. (a) As dry air moves upward, it expands and cools. If the ground temperature is 20°C  and the temperature at a height of 1 km is 10°C, express the temperature T (in °C) as a  function of the height h (in kilometers), assuming that a linear model is appropriate. (b) Draw the graph of the function in part (a). What does the slope represent?(c) What is the temperature at a height of 2.5 km?
    A diver 50 m deep in 8°C fresh water exhales a 1.2 cm diameter bubble which rises to the surface of the water and has a diameter of 2.2 cm when it reaches the surface of the water. Assume the air bubble rises slow enough that it is always in thermal equilibrium with the surrounding water. Include units in all your numerical responses 1. Determine the pressure of the air inside the bubbles
    PROPAGATION OF ERROR You are tasked to supervise the design of 0.5MW wind turbine to be constructed in a Wind Farm in Pililla, Rizal. Suppose the design criteria are as follows: The air density as surveyed after 2 year period averaged at 1.225 kg / cubic meter. The sweeping diameter of the rotor blades is 125m, and the anemometer reading in the area amounts to 4.2m/s on a 2 year period of survey. What is the theoretical power output of the turbine assuming 100% efficiency of operation? Your answer must be in kW and in two decimal places with correct signs.  In the previous problem, if the diameter measurement is off by 0.1m and the anemometer reading is also fluctuating by 0.05m/s and if the error measurement for theoretical power output must be limited to 3%, WHY OR WHY NOT should you accept the design? * Show complete solution in paper.
