3. The Weber Number (Nwe) is a dimensionless number defined as the ratio of inertia to surface tension forces and expressed mathematically as pv² L σ Nwe where = density, v= velocity, L length and σ = surface tension . Surface tension is defined as the work done per unit area of a fluid. Using FLT, show that Weber number is dimensionless.
