Question 1.
Define conservation of linear momentum.
Show hintHide hint
Think about momentum changes under external influences.
Question 2.
What is a fixed control volume?
Show hintHide hint
Consider a tank filled with water at rest.
3Question 3.
What does conservation of linear momentum state?
- It stays constant without external forces.
- It only applies to solids.
- It varies depending on the medium.
Show hintHide hint
Think of a closed box of marbles.
4Question 4.
Is the Reynolds transport theorem used for mass, momentum, or both?
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Consider how properties apply across control volumes.
Question 5.
Design a fluid transport system that ensures steady mass flow. Identify potential challenges and apply the conservation principles discussed.
Show hintHide hint
Analyze each section of your system to maintain balance.
Question 6.
Using the Reynolds transport theorem, calculate the net momentum change in a control volume experiencing varying flows.
Show hintHide hint
Break it down into manageable parts—evaluate influx and outflux separately before combining.
