Fluid Mechanics: A water tank is a cylinder 4 m in height and 2 meters in diameter. The tank is full at time to. The tank sits on a platform 12 m tall. A water tap is located at the bottom center of the tank. The tap, when actuated, opens to a pipe 5 cm in radius.

a.       Write down Bernoulli’s equation. Identify the Pressure, Kinetic and Potential Energy terms. Show that each has the units of an energy density (Joules/Volume).

b.       Use Bernoulli’s equation to compare the difference in pressure between the surface of the water and the bottom of the tank near the edge? Assume the fluid is motionless near the edge.

c.       When a tap is opened water rushes in to a pipe 5 cm in radius. The pipe is straight and drops 12 m to ground level, but along the way slowly in radius to 2 cm. What is the speed of the water as it emerges from the pipe?

d.       Use the continuity equation to find the speed of the water as it enters the pipe 12 m above, i.e. bottom of the tank.

e.       What is the volume and mass flow rate of the stream of water?

f.        What is the pressure of the fluid as it enters the pipe, again at the bottom of the tank.

A positively charged glass rod repels an object suspended by a non-conducting thread. The charge on the object is ____ .

A positive point charge is brought near the outside surface of a neutral conducting sphere and released. The initial position of the point charge is on the positive x axis and the sphere is centred on the origin. The point charge moves in the ____ x direction. (If the point charge does not move, select answer C.)

A negatively charged glass rod attracts an object suspended by a non-conducting thread. The charge on the object is ____ .

A positively charged ball is brought close to a neutral isolated conductor. The conductor is then grounded, while the ball is kept close. If the ground connection is first removed and then the ball is taken away, the conductor has a ____ charge.

Two neutral metal spheres are mounted on insulating supports. They are connected by a wire. A positively charged glass rod is brought near sphere 1. The wire connecting the spheres is removed and the charged rod is then taken away. Now the charge on sphere 1 is ____ .

You calculate your incremental costs to be $268,000 and your fully allocated costs to be $440,000. Your usual practice is to add between 60% and 80% to your incremental costs, depending on capacity utilization rate and other factors. You expect three other firms to also bid on this contract, and you have assembled the following competitor intelligence about those companies.
