Question: Problem 3 : The momentum equation for a control volume fixed in space is given by: d d t V V d V + S

Problem 3:
The momentum equation for a control volume fixed in space is given by:
ddtVVdV+S(V*dS)V=-S(p-p)dS+VfdV+Fviscous
Show how this equation would need to be modified if it were applied to each of the
following (different) scenarios:
a) A control volume defined in a flow at steady state for which this no fluid is passing
the boundaries.
b) A control volume defined in a flow at steady state for which gravitational forces and
pressure forces can be neglected.
c) A control volume defined in a flow at steady state where the friction on a wall
boundary can be neglected.
d) A control volume defined around a fluid in an open tank fitted with a pinhole at the
bottom from which fluid leaks out from over time.
e) A control volume defined around a steady state flow that is only pressure driven.
For case e): Express in p2 in terms of all other variables, where D is a diameter
