10. a) Two plates are placed at a distance of 0.15mm apart. The lower plate is fixed while the upper plate having surface area 1.0 m2 is pulled at 0.3 m/s. Find the force and power required to maintain this speed, if the fluid separating them is having viscosity 1.5 poise. b) Determine the intensity of shear of an oil having viscosity = 1.2 poise and is used for lubrication in the clearance between a 10 cm diameter shaft and its journal bearing. The clearance is 1.0mm and shaft rotates at 200 r.p.m. (OR) 11. a) A shaft of diameter 120mm is rotating inside a journal bearing of diameter 122mm at a speed of 360 r.p.m. The space between the shaft and the bearing is filled with g lubricating oil of viscosity 6 poise. Find the power absorbed in oil if the length of bearing is 100mm. b) The velocity distribution over a plate is given by u =2/3y-y2 in which u is the velocity in m/sec at a distance of y m above the plate. Determine the shear stress at y = 0, 0.1 and 0.2 m. Take viscosity is 6 poise
12 A U-tube manometer is used to measure the pressure of water in a pipeline which is in excess of atmospheric pressure. The right limb of the manometer contains mercury and is open to atmosphere. The contact between water and mercury in the left limb. Determine the pressure of water in the mainline if the difference in level of mercury in the limbs of U-tube is 10cm and the free surface of mercury is in level with the centre of the pipe. It the pressure of water in pipe line is reduced to 9810 N/M2, calculate the new difference in the level and mercury. Sketch the arrangement. (OR) 13 Water is flowing through two different pipes to which an inverted differential manometer having an oil of specific gravity 0.8 is connected. The pressure head in the pipe A is 2m of water, find the pressure in the pipe B for the manometer reading as shown in fig.
