Astudent team is to design a human-powered submarine for a design competition. the overall length of the prototype submarine is 4.85 m, and its student designers hope that it can travel fully submerged through water at 0.440 m/s. the water is freshwater (a lake) at t = 15 °c. the design team builds a one-fifth scale model to test in their university’s wind tunnel. a shield surrounds the drag balance strut so that the aerodynamic drag of the strut itself does not influence the measured drag. the air in the wind tunnel is at 25°c and at one standard atmosphere pressure. the students measure the aerodynamic drag on their model submarine in the wind tunnel. they are careful to run the wind tunnel at conditions that ensure similarity with the prototype submarine. their measured drag force is 5.75 n. "estimate the drag force" on the prototype submarine at the given conditions.

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at -26°c with a volumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. refrigerant exits at 9 bar, 70°c. changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s, and the compressor power, in kw.

Ariver flows from north to south at 8 km/h. a boat is to cross this river from west to east at a speed of 20 km/h (speed of the boat with respect to the earth/ground). at what angle (in degrees) must the boat be pointed upstream such that it will proceed directly across the river (hint: find the speed of the boat with respect to water/river)? a 288 b. 21.8 c. 326 d. 30.2
