Ahh, I've ran into another question.
I am also testing the velocity of the drop in an oil with different temperatures.
I know that as the temperature increases, the velocity also increase. This trend is apparent in my results.
I know (I think) that this happens because as the liquid is heated...
Hi everyone,
Thanks so much for your help.
It has helped me to clarify some of the things I was not too sure of.
Also, I believe, the curriculum does not require me to do overly complex calculations.
Once again, thank you!
Hi boneh3ad,
Thank you for your replies.
I was just wondering, as I am really quite ignorant to this fluid mechanics business, if you could briefly explain the concept of Reynolds number in my case.
I know it's got something to do with laminar flow and turbulent.
Thanks you!
Yep, I also needed some clarification as to where Stokes Law could be used.
In my test, I'm dropping it in motor oil, so I hope it's enough to have the law applied into it...
Thanks!
Hi forum,
This is my first post on this site, so please go easy on me :D
I'm a year 12 physics student doing an investigation.
We are given the freedom of choosing any field of physics to investigate.
I don't know what came over me as I chose a field I have never came across before: Fluid...
