Question 1

What is a control volume primarily used for in fluid mechanics?

  • To analyze static fluids
  • To examine the boundary interactions of fluids
  • To determine the absolute pressure of a system

💡 Hint: Think about where fluid enters and exits.

Question 2

True or False: In a system, mass can flow across the boundaries.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider the definition of a system.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a control volume around a fluid jet striking a horizontal surface and derive the pressure distribution across the surface.

💡 Hint: Consider how fluid dynamics change as the fluid jets out.

Question 2

Analyze the forces acting on a suspended object in wind flow using both the system and control volume approaches. Provide insights on which method yields more information for effective design.

💡 Hint: Reflect on how the both approaches allow you to observe different aspects of forces acting on the object.
