Problems 31 Problems Note: Unless specific values of required fluid properties are given in the statement of the problem, use the values found in the tables on the inside of the front cover. Problems designated with an 1*2 are intended to be solved with the aid of a programmable calculator or a computer. Problems designated with a 1†2 are “open-ended” problems and require critical thinking in that to work them one must make various assumptions and provide the necessary data. There is not a unique answer to these problems. Answers to the even-numbered problems are listed at the end of the book. Access to the videos that accompany problems can be obtained through the book’s web site, www.wiley.com/ college/munson. The lab-type problems can also be accessed on this web site.

If this is to be a dimensionally homogeneous equation, what are the values for a and b? Is your result consistent with the standard formula for the speed of sound? 1See Eq. 1.19.2 1.13 A formula to estimate the volume rate of flow, Q, flowing over a dam of length, B, is given by the equation Q 3.09 BH 3 2 where H is the depth of the water above the top of the dam 1called the head2.
