1. 1.

   What is a stream function?

   Hint

   It's related to the flow in fluid dynamics.

2. 2.

   What does incompressible flow imply?

   Hint

   Think of a fluid that doesn't change its density.

3. 3.

   What is the role of a stream function in fluid mechanics?

   • To measure temperature
   • To visualize flow
   • To calculate pressure

   Hint

   Think about flow visualization tools.

4. 4.

   True or False: Incompressible flow means density changes with speed.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Consider a fluid that doesn't change its properties.

5. 5.

   Given a complex flow scenario with varying shapes, derive the stream functions to predict flow patterns.

   Hint

   Consider the shapes' effect on flow direction.

6. 6.

   Analyze a turbulent flow around a building and propose how stream functions could clarify the flow behavior.

   Hint

   Focus on how turbulence alters flow patterns.
