2. A body falls from rest and is resisted by air drag. Determine the time necessary to reach a
velocity V of 50 m/s if the 100kg body is resisted by a force equal to (a) 0.01V and (b) 0.004
V2. (Ref.1)
3. A large tank with a volume of 30 m3 is connected to a smaller tank with a volume of 15 m3 by
means of a valve. The large tank contains N2 at 700 kPa while the small tank is evacuated. If the
valve leaks between the two tanks and the rate of leakage of gas is proportional to the pressure
difference between the two tanks, how long does it take for the pressure in the small tank to be
onehalf its final value? The instantaneous initial flow rate with the small tank evacuated is 0.091
kmol/hr. The temperature in both tanks is constant at 20oC. (Ref. 2)
