Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A fluid flows through a pipe where the diameter decreases from 4m to 2m. If the initial velocity is 5 m/s, calculate the strain rates and describe how the fluid properties change.
💡 Hint: Consider how velocity differences across diameters impact strain.
In a fluid element experiencing shear strain, derive the relation between applied shear stress and shear strain rate.
💡 Hint: Focus on creating the relationship through experimental observations.
