A large reservoir at 20oC and 800 kPa is used to fill a small insulated tank through a converging-diverging nozzle with 1-cm2 throat area and 1.66-cm2 exit area. The small tank has a volume of 0.9 m3 and is initially at 20oC and 100 kPa. Estimate the elapsed time when (a) shock waves begin to appear inside the nozzle and (b) the mass flow begins to drop below its maximum value.

Review multiple-concept example 7 in this chapter as an aid in solving this problem. in a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so that the ball in her hand moves in a circle. in one instance, the radius of the circle is 0.626 m. at one point on this circle, the ball has an angular acceleration of 66.1 rad/s2 and an angular speed of 12.6 rad/s. (a) find the magnitude of the total acceleration (centripetal plus tangential) of the ball. (b) determine the angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction.
