Question 1

What is the no-slip condition?

  • Fluid velocity at the boundary is zero.
  • Fluid moves faster than the boundary.
  • No movement occurs in fluids.

💡 Hint: Think about how fluids interact with solid surfaces.

Question 2

True or False: The boundary layer thickness decreases as fluid moves downstream.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider how the flow behaves as it moves along a solid boundary.

Question 1

Calculate the Reynolds number for water flowing over a flat plate, given a free stream velocity of 2 m/s and kinematic viscosity of 1.0 x 10^-6 m²/s.

💡 Hint: Use the formula for Reynolds number and substitute the values.

Question 2

Discuss how varying the flow velocity of water affects the sediment transport observed in a riverbed.

💡 Hint: Consider both the laminar and turbulent effects on sediment dynamics.
