Hey guys a few questions.
Question1) Descrive the forces that make up the NSE(Navier-Stokes Equations). Which forces generate motion and which alter motion.
I have answered this 1st question, I got:
pressure gradient force - generates
coriolis force - alters
frictional forces: wind stress - generates
bottom friction - alters
Are these correct?
Question2) List the unkown variables in the NSE oceanic appliactions and name the physical principles that give us as many equations as there are unknowns.
My answer: pressure, velocity components, density, temperature and salinity
i.e. p, u, v, w, S(density), T, s(salinity)
How do I go about the next part of this question?
Cheers guys, and a quick reply would be much appreciated :)
