Question

1.92 Ft) (8e23p75)water in an irrigation ditch of width w m and depth d= 1.14 m flows with a speed of 0.107 m/s. The mass flux of the flowing water through an imaginary surface is the product of the water's density (1000 kg/m3) and its volume flux through that surface. Find the mass flux through the following imaginary surfaces: (a) a surface of area wd, entirely in the water, perpendicular to the flow; (in kg/s) 10.

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

Given, width w = 1.92 m, depth d = 1.14 m; speedv = 0.107 m/s and density = 1000kg/m3.

Notethe irrigation ditch is rather a canal of water. Also note thatvolume flus or velocit flux is like elctric flux(v.a andE.A),where A is the area vector. Also,v, E and A arevector quantities, but flux is scalar.

Therefore the massflux of water is given by v.A and has SI units,kg/s.

)Mass flux of water over the area w.d, = v.A = v.w.d
                                       =
1000x0.107x1.92x1.14 = 234.20kg/s.

=2.34*10^2kg/s
