3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What does the principle of mass conservation state?
Think about how liquids behave in a closed container.
Define momentum flux.
Consider how momentum relates to mass and velocity.
What does the mass conservation principle state?
Think about a closed container of water.
Is momentum flux the product of velocity and area only?
Remember how we connect mass flow rate, velocity, and density.
A water jet with a density of 1000 kg/m³ impacts a plate at a velocity of 10 m/s. Calculate the force if the plate area is 0.05 m².
Use the momentum flux concept for the calculation.
Describe a scenario where Reynolds Transport Theorem might not simplify the calculation of forces during fluid impact. Discuss alternatives.
Explore conditions when RTT assumptions may not hold.
