MCQ (Single Correct Answer)

-0.3

Consider a laminar flow at zero over a flat plate . The shear stress at the wall is denoted by $${\tau _w}.$$ The axial positions $${x_1}$$ and $${x_2}$$ on the plate are measured from the leading edge in the direction of flow. If $${x_2} > {x_1},$$ then

$${\tau _w}\left| {_{{x_1}} = {\tau _w}} \right|{}_{{x_2}} = 0$$

$${\tau _w}\left| {_{{x_1}} = {\tau _w}} \right|{}_{{x_2}} \ne 0$$

$${\tau _w}\left| {_{{x_1}} > {\tau _w}} \right|{}_{{x_2}}$$

$${\tau _w}\left| {_{{x_1}} < {\tau _w}} \right|{}_{{x_2}}$$

It increases until the flow is fully developed.

It is constant and is equal to the average velocity in the fully developed region.

It decreases until the flow is fully developed.

It is constant but always lower than the average velocity in the fully developed region.

Three parallel pipes connected at the two ends have flow-rates $$\,\,\,{Q_1},\,\,\,{Q_2},\,\,\,\,$$ and $${Q_3}$$ respectively, and the corresponding frictional head losses are $${h_{L1}},\,\,\,{h_{L2}},$$ and $${h_{L3}}$$ respectively. The correct expressions for total flow rate $$(Q)$$ and frictional head loss across the two ends $$\left( {{h_L}} \right)$$ are.

$$Q = {Q_1} + {Q_2} + {Q_3};\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{h_L} = {h_{L1}} + {h_{L2}} + {h_{L3}}$$

$$Q = {Q_1} + {Q_2} + {Q_3};\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{h_L} = {h_{L1}} = {h_{L2}} = {h_{L3}}$$

$$Q = {Q_1} = {Q_2} = {Q_3};\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{h_L} = {h_{L1}} + {h_{L2}} + {h_{L3}}$$

$$Q = {Q_1} = {Q_2} = {Q_3};\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{h_L} = {h_{L1}} = {h_{L2}} = {h_{L3}}$$
