ENG243 ASSIGNMENT #1 This assignment is due 1000 Friday April 1st at my office. The overall weighting of this assignment to your final grade is 5%. Late assignments will receive a penalty of 0.05% (out of 5%) for every two minutes late. No submissions written in pencil will be marked (i.e. you get zero). 1. Determine the force required to drag a plate that is 400 mm long and 200 mm wide through the two fluids at 4.00 m/s. 2. What pressure needs to be applied to the piston to produce an air pressure of 5.0 psi in the top of the tank? What is the pressure at the base of the tank?
3. Determine the flow rate for water flowing down the pipe. Determine the fluid velocity at the point where the pipe has a diameter of 1.0 m. 4. The diagram shows a schematic of Hoover dam. You can approximate the surface of the dam facing the reservoir as a trapezoid with a vertical orientation. .
5. The tank is the diagram has a length (into the page) of 9.50 m and a width (from left to right) of 2.6 m. What is flow rate of the water draining out of the 0.020 m plughole at the base of the tank? 6. The pressure in pipe A containing Fuel Oil (SG = 0.88) is at atmospheric pressure. What is the pressure in pipe B?
