this is for a fluid dynamics course. please give a simple answer 8. When considering a fluid flow problem, name two conditions that would require the application of the energy equation in addition to the mass and momentum equations if the condition was present.
When a chalk is broken into dust-like particles, the particles take a long time to settle down to the ground when compared to the original chalk although the density of the chalk and the viscosity of air remain the same. The reasons for this are: (i) (ii) (i) (ii) The Reynolds number is very low due to reduced length scale of the dust. The dust particle is much lighter than the chalk. The viscous force is a surface force proportional to the length square while the gravitational force is a body force proportional to the length cube. At very small length scale, length square is much larger than length cube. (iii) (A) (B) The largest animal is found in sea as it requires no energy to support its weight by using hydrostatic principle. However bird has to support its own weight by using Bernoulli principle to create pressure difference while in flight. Bird cannot be very large and there are also fewer species of large bird than small bird. The reasons are: There is less food in the air…
