  • Navier-Stokes Equation Question?

    Consider a steady incompressible laminar flow of water (density ρ and kinematic viscosity ν) between two infinite (in x direction) flat plates A and B. Plate A located at y = 0 is stationary while plate B located at y = h moves at speed U in the positive x direction. We seek the solution for velocity component u by considering the x-component of the Navier-Stokes equation.

    I need help with the first four questions, all the other ones arent too bad

  • MATLAB question, numerical integration?

    I need to find the minimum from 0 to 30 m/s for the equation y=10000*(1-((x-15)./30).^2) where x is the velocity, using numerical integration. Ode45 might be helpful here, but idk how to use it. x ranges from 0 tto 45 m/s.

  • Rope on the edge of a table?

    a rope of mass M and lenght L is released from rest with a very small amount of it hanging over the edge of a table. determine the speed of the rope as a function of s. assume the surface is smooth (aka frictionless)

    i know you have to use energy to solve this, but i dont know how to make the potential energy and kinetic energy related to each other.

  • NFL playoff predictions?

    What do you think will happen in this weekend games?

    Ravens @ Colts: Ravens win on last second field goal, 31-28. Colt starters will be rusty. And Ray Rice is a beast. Brady turned it over, so will Peyton (not as much though, maybe 2 ints).

    Cardinals @ Saints: Cardinals in a shoot out, 34-28. The Saints looked awful at the end of the season (how do you lose to the Bucs!?!?) and after least week we know Arizona can score.

    Cowboys @ Minnesota: Tough game to pick, I'm going with Minnesota just because of their defense, 17-14.

    Jets @ Chargers: Teams don't do well when they travel to the opposite coast. The Jets cannot contain Floyd, Gates, and Jackson. The Jets running game is awesome, but will be abanoned if they fall behind early. I don't like rookie quarterbacks under that kind of pressure (I'm a USC fan so i actually like Sanchez). The Jets defense limits the Chargers offense, but doesn't stop them. Chargers win, 28-17.

    So, your picks?

  • Phase angle for simple harmonic motion?

    Learning Goal: To understand how the two standard ways to write the general solution to a harmonic oscillator are related.

    There are two common forms for the general solution for the position of a harmonic oscillator as a function of time t:

    1. x(t) = Acos(omega t + phi) and

    2. x(t) = Ccos(omega t) + Ssin(omega t).

    Either of these equations is a general solution of a second-order differential equation F=ma; hence both must have at least two--arbitrary constants--parameters that can be adjusted to fit the solution to the particular motion at hand. (Some texts refer to these arbitrary constants as boundary values.)

    How do you express the phase angle (phi) in terms of C and S?

  • Calc Problem w/ variables.?

    The time required for the solution y of the growth problem

    y'=ky k>0 y(0)= y0

    to reach twice its original value is called the doubling time.

    Suppose that the solution of the above IVP has value B at any t1 time . Determine the value of the solution at time t1+td.

    The answer will not include a k or t.
