AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating the surface pressure at an isothermal plate using given parameters: stagnation point pressure, free stream velocity, and temperatures of both the plate and free stream. The user seeks guidance on the appropriate equation to determine surface pressure while plotting it for a range of x values from 0 to 1, with the free stream velocity defined as 5*x. Clarification on the relationship between these variables and the correct formula for surface pressure is requested. The conversation highlights the need for assistance in applying fluid dynamics principles to solve the problem. Overall, the user is looking for a clear equation to proceed with their analysis.

Hi guys, so I have a problem where I am given the stagnation point pressure and the free stream velocity as well as the temperature of the isothermal plate and temperature of the free stream.


I am asked to plot the surface pressure at the isothermal plate for a range of x=0 to x=1 given that I have a free stream velocity of 5*x

Can someone help me, I'm not sure what the equation is for surface pressure.

Thanks!

Thread '1:1 versus 2:1 Mechanical Advantage debate'

The rope is tied into the person (the load of 200 pounds) and the rope goes up from the person to a fixed pulley and back down to his hands. He hauls the rope to suspend himself in the air. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? The person will indeed only have to lift half of his body weight (roughly 100 pounds) because he now lessened the load by that same amount. This APPEARS to be a 2:1 because he can hold himself with half the force, but my question is: is that mechanical...

Thread 'Newton's first law?'

Some physics textbook writer told me that Newton's first law applies only on bodies that feel no interactions at all. He said that if a body is on rest or moves in constant velocity, there is no external force acting on it. But I have heard another form of the law that says the net force acting on a body must be zero. This means there is interactions involved after all. So which one is correct?

Thread 'Beam on an inclined plane'

Thread 'Beam on an inclined plane'

Hello! I have a question regarding a beam on an inclined plane. I was considering a beam resting on two supports attached to an inclined plane. I was almost sure that the lower support must be more loaded. My imagination about this problem is shown in the picture below. Here is how I wrote the condition of equilibrium forces: $$ \begin{cases} F_{g\parallel}=F_{t1}+F_{t2}, \\ F_{g\perp}=F_{r1}+F_{r2} \end{cases}. $$ On the other hand...
