Question 1

What is the difference in pressure head , measured by a mercury-oil differential manometer for a 20 cm difference of mercury level ? (Sp. Gravity of oil=0.8)

Question 2

If a fluid jet discharging from a 50 mm diameter orifice has a 40 mm diameter at its vena contracts, then its coefficient of contraction will be.

Question 3

A container with two circular vertical tubes of diameter d1 = 39.5 mm and d2 = 12.7 mm is partially filled with mercury. The equilibrium level of the liquid is shown on the left diagram. A cylindrical object made from solid brass is placed in the larger tube so that it floats, as shown in right diagram. Object is D = 37.5 mm in diameter and H = 76.2 mm high. What will be the new equilibrium level, h of mercury with the brass cylinder in place?

Question 4

Water is coming out to the atmosphere from a converging channel with a velocity of 5 m/s as shown in the figure. At section A, a cylinder of 10 cm diameter containing a friction-less piston attached to a spring having spring constant 500 N/m is connected. The cross-section diameter of the channel at A and B is 2 m and 1 m respectively. Due to the flow the spring is compressed by an amount of

Question 5

The arrangement shown in the figure measures the velocity V of a gas of density 1 kg/m3 flowing through a pipe. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2. If the manometric fluid is water (density 1000 kg/m3) and the velocity V is 20 m/s, the differential head h (in mm) between the two arms of the manometer is _____

Question 6

A fluid jet is discharging froma 100 mm nozzle and the vena contracta formed has a diameter of 90 mm. If the coefficient of velocity is 0.98, then the coefficient of discharge for the nozzle is:
