Question 1

What does conservation of momentum help us predict?

  • Temperature changes in fluids
  • Fluid motion and interaction
  • Fluid density variations

💡 Hint: Think about what momentum affects.

Question 2

True or False: Steady flow indicates that all properties of a fluid in motion are changing over time.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider what 'steady' implies.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A pipe has two exits. At the first exit, 5 m/s flows into a tank, while 10 m/s exits into another region. If the diameter at Exit 1 is 0.1 m and Exit 2 is 0.15 m, calculate the force acting on the pipe from these exits.

💡 Hint: Utilize mass conservation equations alongside momentum flux principles.

Question 2

For aircraft refueling at 568 liters/min with a specific gravity of 0.68, calculate the thrust needed to keep a constant velocity. Determine the momentum before and after refueling.

💡 Hint: Boyle's Law could assist in relating pressure changes to thrust requirements.
