Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You observe that drag force on a flat plate depends on fluid velocity, density, and dynamic viscosity. Develop a dimensionless form that describes this relationship while minimizing experiments.

💡 Hint: Start by identifying which variables are independent and which are dependent in your analysis.

Question 2

Explain how knowledge of kinematic viscosity can help improve the design of experiments to save time and resources.

💡 Hint: Consider how viscosity influences flow characteristics in various conditions.
