Why Does the Incline Angle Start Differently in Fluid Dynamics Problems?
While working on fluid dynamics problems I noticed that the incline angle sometimes starts at middle while other times starts at one end. Is there an explanation for this? I know the slope =(linear a)/(gravitational g)- petersun825

Question about temperature and Specific Weight
Hello, I know there are many different representations of temperature, there's 4, 1) Fahrenheit 2) Kelvin 3) Celsius then there's 4) T = 460 + F In my fluid dynamics review book To calculate specific weight γ= P(pressure) / (R * T) = lb/ft^3, it explained that T should be...- petersun825
