5.(e) A boundary layer develops along the walls of a rectangular
wind tunnel. The air is at 20°C and at atmospheric
pressure. The boundary layer starts upstream of the
contraction and grows into the test section. By the time it
reaches the test section, the boundary layer is fully
turbulent. The boundary layer profile and its thickness
are measured at both the beginning (x = x1) and at the
end (x = x2) of the bottom wall of the wind tunnel test
section. The test section is 1.8 m long and 0.50 m wide
(into the page in the Fig.). The following measurements
are made:
1 4.2 cm ; 2 7.7 cm V = 10.0 m/s
At both locations the boundary layer profile fits better to
a one-eighth-power law approximation than to the standard
one-seventh-power law approximation,

7. (a) The composite beam shown is formed by bonding together
a brass rod and an aluminium rod of semicircular cross-
sections. The modulus of elasticity is 100 GPa for the
brass and 70 GPa for the aluminium. Knowing that the
composite beam is bent about a horizontal axis by couples
of moment 900 N-m, determine the maximum stress (a) in
the brass, (b) in the aluminium.

8.(b)(i) The normal depth of flow of water, in a rectangular channel
1.5 m wide, is one metre. The bed slope of the channel is
0.0006 and Manning’s roughness coefficient n = 0.012.
Find the critical depth. At a certain section of the same
channel the depth is 0.92 m while at a second section the
depth is 0.86 m. Find the distance between the two sections
(use one reach in the calculations). Also find whether the
section is located downstream or upstream with respect to
the first section.
