For most gases at standard or near standard conditions, the relationshipamong pressure, density, and temperature is given by the perfect gasequation of state: p = ρRT, where R is the specific gas constant. For airat near standard conditions, R = 287 J/(kg · K) in the International System of Units and R = 1716 ft · lb/(slug · ◦R) in the English Engineering System of Units. Using the above information, consider the following two cases:
a. At a given point on the wing of a Boeing 727, the pressure andtemperature of the air are 1.9 × 104 N/m2 and 203 K, respectively.Calculate the density at this point.b. At a point in the test section of a supersonic wind tunnel, the pressureand density of the air are 1058 lb/ft2 and 1.23 × 10−3 slug/ft3,respectively. Calculate the temperature at this point.
A tremendous force is generated when waterfreezes into ice and expands in volume by 9.0%. Suppose a 1.000-m3cube of liquid water freezes into ice that is 1.000 m on a side by1.090 m tall. How many 68-kg students would the ice be able tolift? Determine this by calculating the amount of force on the top1.000-m2face that would be required to squeeze 1.090 m3of iceback to 1.000 m3, assuming all of the volume change occurs alongthe vertical direction
The belt in Fig. P1.52 moves at a steady velocity V andskims the top of a tank of oil of viscosity μ , as shown.Assuming a linear velocity profi le in the oil, develop asimple formula for the required belt-drive power P as afunction of ( h , L , V , b , μ ). What belt-drive power P , inwatts, is required if the belt moves at 2.5 m/s over SAE30W oil at 20° C, with L = 2 m, b= 60 cm, and h = 3 cm?
