When a sphere falls freely through a homogeneous fluid, it reaches a terminal velocity at which the weight of the sphere is balanced by the buoyant force and the frictional resistance of the fluid. Make a dimensional analysis of this problem and indicate how experimental data for this problem could be correlated. Neglect compressibility effects and the influence of surface roughness.
Drop-load (I)This exercise is part of a series of problems aimed at modelling a situation by progressively refining our model to consider more and more parameters. This progressive approach is very close to what professional scientists do! Context We want to lower a suspended load in a controlled way so that it hits the ground with a speed whose modulus is not too great. To do this, the suspended load (B) is connected by a rope passing through a pulley to another mass (A), which can move on a horizontal surface. Information The masses of the charges A and B are known.The pulley is a ring of mass mp and radius R that can rotate without friction.The surface on which mass A is placed is horizontal.There is no friction between mass A and the surface on which it is placed.The string attached to mass A is perfectly parallel to the surface on which the mass rests.

A forensic scientist test-fires a projectile (mass mP) at a cubic block (volume V), made from wood (density D), resting on a rough surface (static = kinetic coefficient uS). The bullet enters the block with an initial velocity vo and exits the block with a velocity v1. The friction forces on the bullet as it passes through the length of the block are unknown and are assumed to be constant. Solve these problems algebraically first: a) What is the deceleration of the bullet inside the block? How many "g" is that? b) How much time does it take the projectile to pass through the block? c) What is the velocity of the block as the bullet exits? d) How long (time) and how far (distance) does the block slide after the bullet has exited? e) Solve the above numerically for the following parameters (g =9.81m/s^2): mP = 10g, V = 0.1m^3, D = 500kg/m^3, µS = 0.8, v0 = 500m/s, v1 = 100m/s

The desert is a rectangular prism with a square face 25.0-cm on a side and a height of 12.0 cm. A quick Google search reveals that the density of Jello is 1140 kg/m3 with shear modulus of 530 N/m2. What is its rate of oscillation? If the energy of oscillation is dissipated at the rate of 5.00 x 10-5 J per second how long will the block wiggle?

An engineer is to design a human powered submarine for a design competition. The overall length of the prototype submarine is 2.24 m and its engineer designers hope that it can travel fully submerged through water at 0.560 m/s. The water is freshwater (a lake) at 7-15°C (p=999.1 kg/m3 and u= 1.138 ×103 kg/m-st. The design team builds a one-eighth scale model to test in their university's wind tunnel. The air in the wind tunnel is at 25°C (p= 1.180 kg/m3 and u = 1.849 ×10-5 kg/m-s) and at one standard atmosphere pressure. At what air speed do they need to run the wind tunnel in order to achieve similarity?
