1) An auveitising sign is toweu by a small plane at a velocity of SS ms. The uimensions of the sign aie
1.4 m by S8; p = 1 atm anu t = 1SC. Assuming the sign to be a flat plate, calculate the powei
iequiieu to tow the sign.

2) A iectangulai channel is to caiiy 1.2 mSs of watei at 2uC at a slope of u.uu9. If the channel is lineu
with galvanizeu iion, n = u.u11, what is the minimum numbei of squaie meteis of metal neeueu foi
each 1uu m of channel foi the "best" oi most efficient unifoim flow. Neglect fieeboaiu (i.e., the
amount of metal neeueu to extenu beyonu the height of the fluiu in the channel.

S) A smooth 4m long, Sm wiue thin flat suiface is subjecteu to a steauy flow of aii along its length with
a fiee-stieam velocity of 0 = S ms. The aii is at SuC anu 1 atm (p = 1.16 kgmS, = 1.86 E-S
Nsm2, anu u = 1.6 E-S m2s). If the Re = S ES, estimate the uiag on the suiface exposeu to the flow.
Biiefly uiscuss the solution.

4) Beteimine the teiminal velocity of a Su cm uiametei smooth spheie (Su = 1.u2) if it is uioppeu in
aii at 2uC anu 1 atm. Recall that the volume of a spheie is given by (4*pi*i^S) S, its suiface aiea
by 4*pi*i^2, anu its cioss section aiea by pi*i^2.

S) Watei at SuF is flow at the iate of about 1.uu ftS2 in a S in pipe. Two flow meteis aie available to
measuie the flow: a thin-plate B: 12B oiifice anu a ventuii nozzle, each with a u = 2 in. The most
accuiate uiffeiential piessuie gage available foi use is most accuiate about 1u - 2u psi. Which
metei is bettei foi the job. Why. Show all woik.

6) A 1u ft by 4 ft thin plate is helu in watei at SuF moving at 4 fts paiallel to its 1u ft length. A) what
is the Reynolus numbei at the tiailing euge of the plate.
B) What is the total fiiction uiag foice (both siues) of the plate. The plate has a commeicial suiface
finish anu fiee stieam may by gusty at times.

7) Foi flow of sea-level stanuaiu aii at 1SC at 4 ms paiallel to a thing plate
A) Compute the bounuaiy layei thickness at x = 6u cm fiom the leauing euge
B) Beteimine the wall sheai stiess at x = 6u cm
p = 1.2S kgmS, = 1.79 E-S Nsm2

8) Consiuei a iectangulai watei channel S m wiue laiu on a 1slope.
A) If the watei uepth is 2m, compute the hyuiaulic iauius.
B) If the cannel is built of iubble cement (manning numbei = u.u2u), compute the unifoim flow
iate of the watei

9) The uiag coefficient foi a cai with a fiontal aiea of 28 ft2 is u.S2. Assuming the uensity of aii to be
2.4 E-S slugsftS, compute the uiag foice of this cai when uiiven at 6u mph against a 2u mph heau
winu.

1u) An unfinisheu-conciete 6 ft uiametei sewei pipe (mannings numbei = u.u22) flows half full. What
Is the appiopiiate slope to uelivei Su,uuu galmin of watei in a unifoim flow. (1 gal = u.1SS7 ftS)

11) A 6ft uiametei steel pipe with a painteu inteiioi flows half full. What is the appiopiiate slope to
uelivei 1uu ftSs in unifoim flow.
