Question 1
A fluid exhibits velocity components given by \( u = 3x^2 + y \), \( v = 4xz + z^2 \), and \( w = -2y + 5 \). Calculate all components of the strain tensor.
💡 Hint: Look carefully at the derivatives to extract each component.
Question 2
Consider a fluid at rest that experiences uniform expansion. Define the dilatation in terms of volume increase and relate it to the strain rates you learned.
💡 Hint: Remember how volume relates to length in three dimensions.
