Air enters the intake scoops S at the rate of 50 m3/s. If the engine burns fuel at the rate of 0.4 kg/s and the gas (air and fuel) is exhausted relative to the plane with a speed of 450 m/s, determine the resultant drag force exerted on the plane by air resistance. Assume that air has a constant density of 1.22 kg/m3. Hint: Since mass both enters and exits the plane, Eqs.15-28 and 15-29 must be combined to yield

- An enclosed tank containing a liquid of density r has a hole in its side at a distance y1 from the tank’s bottom (as shown). The hole is open to the atmosphere, and its diameter is much smaller than the diameter of the tank. The air above the liquid is maintained at a pressure P. Determine the speed of the liquid as it leaves the hole when the liquid’s level is a distance h above the hole.arrow_forwardThe jet has a speed of 1260 km/hkm/h when it is flying horizontally. Air enters the intake scoop S� at the rate of 52 m3/sm3/s. The engine burns fuel at the rate of 1.85 kg/skg/s, and the gas (air and fuel) is exhausted relative to the plane with a speed of 2330 km/hkm/h. The plane has a mass of 8 MgMg. Assume that the air has a constant density of ρa�� = 1.112 kg/m3kg/m3. (Figure 1) Determine the drag exerted on the plane by air resistance.

The blast is initiated by a sensor and clocked so that the product is in front of the blast at just the right . The product is going to be dumped onto a shelf next to the conveyor belt. Determine the speed of the air jet required to tip the cardboard off the conveyor. The density of air is 1.10 kg/m3. The cardboard has a mass of 0.10 kg and the jet has a diameter of 10 mm.arrow_forward
