Direction: Solve and show your complete solution for each problem in a white and clean
short/long bond paper. If bond paper is not available, you may write your solutions in any
CLEAN and PRESENTABLE paper. Encircle or box your final answer. Scan or take a CLEAR
PICTURE of your solutions and answers and submit the image file or pdf in the designated
submission bin in MOLE classroom.
2. (20 pts) A soft drink (mostly water) flows in a pipe at a beverage plant with a mass flow rate that
would fill 220 pieces of 0.355-L cans per minute. At point 2 in the pipe, the gauge pressure is 152 kPa
and the cross-sectional area is 8.00 cm2. At point 1, 1.35 m above point 2, the cross-sectional area is
2.00 cm2. Find the
(a) mass flow rate
(b) volume flow rate
(c) flow speeds at points I and 2
(d) gauge pressure at point 1.
3. (20pts) A rock with mass m = 3.00 kg is suspended from the roof of an elevator by a light cord. The
rock is totally immersed in a bucket of water that sits on the floor of the elevator, but the rock doesn't
touch the bottom or sides of the bucket.
(a) When the elevator is at rest, the tension in the cord is 21.0 N. Calculate the volume of the rock.
(b) Derive an expression for the tension in the cord when the elevator is accelerating upward with an
acceleration of magnitude a. Calculate the tension when a = 2.50 m/s2 upward.
(c) Derive an expression for the tension in the cord when the elevator is accelerating downward with an
acceleration of magnitude a. Calculate the tension when a = 2.50 m/s2 downward.
(d) What is the tension when the elevator is in free fall with a downward acceleration equal to g?
4. (20 pts) A uniform rope with length L and mass m is held at one end and whirled in a horizontal circle
with angular velocity ω. You can ignore the force of gravity on the rope. Find the time required for a
transverse wave to travel from one end of the rope to the other.
5. (20pts) A guitar string is vibrating in its fundamental mode, with nodes at each end. The length of the
segment of the string that is free to vibrate is 0.386 m. The maximum transverse acceleration of a point
at the middle of the segment is 8.40 X 103 m/s2 and the maximum transverse velocity is 3.80 m/s.
(a) What is the amplitude of this standing wave?
(b) What is the wave speed for the transverse traveling waves on this string?
