Newton's second law is the foundation for the differential equation of conservation of linear momentum (to be discussed in Chap. 9). In terms of the material acceleration following a fluid particle (Fig. P7-23), we write Newton's second law as follows:
Or, dividing both sides by the mass m of the fluid particle,
Write the primary dimensions of each additive term in the (second) equation, and verify that the equation is dimensionally homogeneous. Show all your work.

Fluid is created at the origin and spreads out radially in all directions in the xy-plane. The net volume flow rate of created fluid per unit width is V·/L (into the page of Fig), where L is the width of the line source into the page in Fig Since mass must be conserved everywhere except at the origin (a singular point), the volume flow rate per unit width through a circle of any radius r must also be V·/L. If we (arbitrarily) specify stream function ? to be zero along the positive x-axis (? = 0), what is the value of ? along the positive y-axis (? = 90°)? What is the value of ? along the negative x-axis (? = 180°)?arrow_forward
