CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1. A certain control volume of porous media received a discharge of 0.1 m3/s during a
period of 10.0 minutes. The volume of outflow was measured to be 58.0 m3 through the
same period of time. Determine the change in storage in the control volume using
equation 1.1.
Solution: Inflow to the control volume = 0.1 × 10 × 60 = 60.0 m3. Outflow from the
control volume = 58.0 m3. Using equation 1.1, change in storage = 60.0-58.0 = 2.0 m3.
1.2. In problem 1.1, if the change in storage in the control volume is zero, what is the
percentage of error encountered in measuring the outflow?
Solution: In this case the outflow must be equal to the inflow = 60.0 m3/s.
% of error in measuring the outflow = {(60.0-58.0)/60.0} × 100 = 3.33%.
1.3. A certain reach of an open channel 1.0 mile in length is excavated through permeable
soil. The rate of inflow to this reach is 100 ft3/s and the rate of outflow is 95 ft3/s. How
much of the water is being lost through this reach every year?
Solution: The difference between inflow and outflow is lost to the soil. Therefore, the
volume of water lost through this reach every year = (100-95) × 60 × 60 × 24 × 365 =
157,680,000 ft3/year.
1.4. A cylindrical tank is supplied by volume flow rate of 80 liter/min. Two outlet pipes
are connected to the base of the tank extracting water at the flow rate of 50 liter/min.
Calculate the rate of change of water volume inside the tank per min. If the diameter of
the tank is 60 cm, determine the change in the water level after one hour.
Solution:
Vin-Vout = Vstorage
Rate of change of volume = 80 – (50 + 35) = -5 l/min.
i.e. water volume will reduce at the rate of 5 l/min.

Solution:
Cross section area of the tap = π/4d2 = π/4 × (8/1000 m)2 = 50.265 × 10-6 m2
Flow rate Q = volume/time.
a) Q = 10 litre/30 sec = 0.333 × 10-3 m3/s
Velocity = Q/area = (0.333 × 10-3 m3/s) / (50.265 × 10-6 m2) = 6.63 m/s.

1.6. The dimensionless parameter Reynolds number is defined as Rn = V.d/ν, where V is
the water velocity, d is the diameter of the pipe, and n is the kinematic viscosity of water
(1.005 × 10-6 m2s). Determine Rn for the two cases (a and b) of Problem 1.5.

1.7. The friction losses through a 10.0 km horizontal pipe of a certain diameter is given
by the relation
hf = 0.005 L
Where hf is the head loss due to friction, and L is the length of the pipe. The total energy
head at the end of the pipe is 21.0 m. Estimate the total energy head at the pipe inlet.
Solution:
The total loss through the pipe is
hf = 0.005 × 10 × 103 = 50.0 m
Energy head at pipe inlet = energy at pipe outlet + loss
= 21.0 + 50.0 = 71.0 m

The dimensions of C, n, and R are L1/2T-1, L-1/3T, and L, respectively. For the above
equation, the dimensions of the left hand side are L1/2T-1, and the dimensions of the right
hand side are L1/3T-1 T1/6 = L1/2T-1. Hence, the homogeneity of the equation is satisfied.
1.11. The water power developed by a pump is given by the equation P = γQH, where P
is the power, γ is the specific weight, Q is the discharge, and H is the water head raised by
the pump. Check the condition of homogeneity of the equation.
Solution: The dimensions of P, γ, Q, and H are ML2T-3, ML-2T-2, L3T-1 and L,
respectively. For the given equation the dimensions of the left hand side are ≡ ML2T-3.
The dimensions of the right hand side are (ML-2T-2) (L3T-1) (L) = ML2T-3.
Therefore, the homogeneity of the dimensions of the given equation is satisfied.

Solution: using dimensional analysis.
[L] [L2. T -2 ]
[L] = [f] .
= [f] [L]
.
[L] [LT -2 ]
f is dimensionless, therefore, the value of f will not change by changing the system of
units.

Solution: 150 (N) = m (kg) × 9.81 (m/s2). Therefore, m = 15.29 kg. The mass of the
object is not affected by any variation in the acceleration due to gravity. The object will
have the same mass irrespective of where it is placed. Weight of the object on the other
planet = 15.29 × 4.0 = 61.16 N.
1.19. A person having a total mass of 80.0 kg rides an elevator. Determine the force (in
Newton) exerted on the floor of the elevator when it is accelerating upward at 5.0 m/s2.
Solution:

W = 80.0 × (9.81 + 5.0) = 1184.8 N
1.20. In problem 1.19, if the elevator is accelerating downwards at 5.0 m/s2, determine
the force (in Newton) exerted on the floor.
Solution: If the elevator is accelerating downwards at 5.0 m/s2, g will be equal to (9.815.0) = 4.81 m/s2. Therefore, W = 80.0 × 4.81 = 384.8 N.
1.21. If the force exerted on the floor of the elevator in problem 1.19 is zero, what will be
the direction and acceleration of the elevator?
Solution: The elevator must be accelerating downward at 9.81 m/s2.
1.22. A tank of oil has a mass of 30 slug. Determine its weight in pound and in Newton at
the earth’s surface.
Solution:
W (lb) = mass (slug) x gravity (ft/s2)
W = 30 × 32.2 = 966 lb = 966 × 4.4482 = 4296.96 N

gravitational attraction is one-sixth of that at the earth’s surface, what would be its weight
in Newton?
