2. In fluids, the shearing strain rate for a Newtonian fluid has dimensions of:
a. L/T2.
b. L2/T.
c. 1/T.
d. L2/T2.
Which figure best describes the variation of shear stress with distance from the
plate?
The relation between the pressures p1 and p2 at the base of the tubes is:
𝑎) 𝑝2 = 4 𝑝1 𝑏) 𝑝2 = 2 𝑝1 𝑐) 𝑝2 = 0.5 𝑝1 𝑑) 𝑝2 = 𝑝1 , 𝑒) 𝑝2 = 𝑝1 /3
6. For a fluid element at rest, the forces acting on the element are:
a) gravity, shear, and normal forces.
b) gravity and normal forces.
c) gravity and shear forces.
d) normal and shear forces.
7. A tank is filled with a liquid, and the surface is exposed to the atmosphere.
Which of the following accurately represents the absolute pressure
distribution on the right-hand side of the tank?
8. A wire is attached to a block of metal that is submerged in a tank of water
as shown below. The graph that most correctly describesthe relation
between the force in the wire and time as the block is pulled slowly out of
the water is
9. A system filled with a liquid is shown below. On the left there is a piston in
a tube of cross-sectional area A1 with a force F1 applied to it, and on the
right there is a piston in a tube of crosssectional area A2 that is twice that
of A1 and a force F2. The pistons are weightless. The two liquid levels are
the same.The relation between the force F2 and F1 is
𝐹2 = 𝐹1 , 𝐹2 = 4 𝐹1 𝐹2 = 2𝐹1 𝐹2 = 𝐹1 /2 𝐹2 = 𝐹1 /4
10. Consider the path of a football. Suppose that you are interested in
determining how far the ball travels. Then you are interested in:
a) neitherLagrangian nor Eulerian views.
b) theEulerian view of the field.
c) theLagrangian or particle view of the football.
