Question: Q 2 . Air, density ( 1 . 2 3 mathrm { ~kg } / mathrm { m } ^ { 3

Q2. Air, density \(1.23\mathrm{~kg}/\mathrm{m}^{3}\), flows past a solid object in a pipe of 2 m diameter and exits as a free jet as shown. The velocity and pressure upstream are uniform at \(10\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s}\) and 50 Pa . At the exit from the pipe the velocity is non-uniform as shown. The shear stress along the wall is negligible. Determine:
(a) the head loss associated with a fluid particle as it moves from upstream to a position within the wake at the exit plane, and
(b) the force that the air puts on the object.
You should also check for continuity of the flow.
[Ans: (a)8.43 m ,(b)\(\mathbf{110.7 ~ N ] ~}\)
