Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A fluid element in an xy-plane rotates while also translating. Describe mathematically how you would calculate the angles of rotation and derive the strain rates.

💡 Hint: Draw the fluid element and visualize movements during small time intervals.

Question 2

Given a fluid with a viscosity of 1.2 Pas, evaluate how it affects the flow in a pipe compared to water with a viscosity of 0.001 Pas. Describe the practical impact.

💡 Hint: Remember how fast different fluids flow in common scenarios, such as syrup versus water.
