Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A fluid flows through a pipe with varying diameters and experiences a hydraulic jump. Determine the pressures before and after the jump given the inflow and outflow velocities.
💡 Hint: Use conservation of mass equations effectively!
Consider a nozzle that accelerates water from a tank at rest, determine the momentum change as water exits the nozzle.
💡 Hint: Utilize the flow rates and velocity to determine momentum influence.
