Question 1.
What is an extensive property?
Show hintHide hint
Think about properties that change with the quantity of fluid.
Question 2.
What does the Reynolds Transport Theorem relate?
Show hintHide hint
Consider how mass flows in and out of a given volume.
3Question 3.
What is the primary purpose of the Reynolds Transport Theorem?
- To relate extensive properties changes to fluid flows.
- To define intensive properties.
- To calculate fluid volume in a system.
Show hintHide hint
Think about how fluid enters and leaves a given area.
4Question 4.
True or False: Intensive properties depend on the amount of fluid present.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Remember the definitions we discussed.
Question 5.
Calculate the mass flow rate of water in a pipe system where the diameter changes, given the densities and velocities at two different points.
Show hintHide hint
Remember that mass flow rate is density times velocity times area.
Question 6.
Using the Reynolds Transport Theorem, derive how momentum changes in a fluid system that enters and exits a control volume.
Show hintHide hint
Focus on how inflow and outflow sections relate to the changes in momentum.
