12.

Find the cost of digging a cuboidal pit 8 m long, 6 m broad and 3 m deep at the rate of Rs. 30 per m3 .

Answer»

Given length of the cuboidal Pit (l) = 8 m

Width (b) =6 m

Depth (h) =3 m

Volume of cuboid pit =l x b x h = (8 x 6 x 3) m³

= 144 m³

Cost of digging 1 m³ = Rs.30

Cost of digging 144 m³ = 144 (Rs.30) = Rs. 4320.

30.	State and explain Newton’s law of viscosity.
Answer» Newton’s law of viscosity: In a steady flow of a fluid past a solid surface, a velocity profile is set up such that the viscous drag per unit area on a layer is directly proportional to the velocity gradient. When a fluid flows past a solid surface in a streamline flow or when a solid body moves through a fluid, the force of fluid friction opposing the motion is called the viscous drag. The magnitude of the viscous drag of a fluid is given by Newton’s law of viscosity. If \(\frac{dv}{dy}\) is the velocity gradient, the viscous drag per unit area on a layer, \(\frac{F}{A}\) ∝ \(\frac{dv}{dy}\) ∴ \(\frac{F}{A}\) = η\(\frac{dv}{dy}\) where the constant of proportionality, y, is called the coefficient of viscosity of the fluid.

Answer»

Newton’s law of viscosity: In a steady flow of a fluid past a solid surface, a velocity profile is set up such that the viscous drag per unit area on a layer is directly proportional to the velocity gradient.

When a fluid flows past a solid surface in a streamline flow or when a solid body moves through a fluid, the force of fluid friction opposing the motion is called the viscous drag. The magnitude of the viscous drag of a fluid is given by Newton’s law of viscosity.

If \(\frac{dv}{dy}\) is the velocity gradient, the viscous drag per unit area on a layer,

\(\frac{F}{A}\) ∝ \(\frac{dv}{dy}\)

∴ \(\frac{F}{A}\) = η\(\frac{dv}{dy}\)

where the constant of proportionality, y, is called the coefficient of viscosity of the fluid.

Discussion

33.	Explain the term viscosity.
Answer» Suppose a constant tangential force is applied to the surface of a liquid. Under this shearing force, the liquid begins to flow. The motion of a thin layer of the liquid at the surface, relative to a layer below, is opposed by fluid friction. Because of this internal fluid friction, horizontal layers of the liquid flow with varying velocities. This also happens in a gas. When a solid surface is moved through a gas, a thin layer of the gas moves with the surface. But its motion relative to a layer away is opposed by fluid friction. The resistance to relative motion between the adjacent layers of a fluid is known as viscosity. It is a property of the fluid. The resistive force in fluid motion is called the viscous drag.

Explain the term viscosity.

Answer»

Suppose a constant tangential force is applied to the surface of a liquid. Under this shearing force, the liquid begins to flow. The motion of a thin layer of the liquid at the surface, relative to a layer below, is opposed by fluid friction.

Because of this internal fluid friction, horizontal layers of the liquid flow with varying velocities.

This also happens in a gas. When a solid surface is moved through a gas, a thin layer of the gas moves with the surface. But its motion relative to a layer away is opposed by fluid friction.

The resistance to relative motion between the adjacent layers of a fluid is known as viscosity.

It is a property of the fluid. The resistive force in fluid motion is called the viscous drag.

Discussion

35.	What do you mean by viscous drag?
