The book is "Introduction to Fluid Mechanics" by Y. Nakayama. so are you saying you don't use any of the equations the book gives? If possible could you please list out the energy equations, my physics is better but i don't see a solution using energy either. Gravitational is mgh, energy from...

How much force is necessary to lift a ring, diameter 20mm, made of fine wire, and placed on the surface of water at 20 degrees celsius? All the equations from the chapter: Shearing stress = F/A = Viscosity*(velocity parallel/h) Kinematic Viscosity = viscosity/density Change in pressure =...

Yea, that's the problem I'm running into I guess. Everyone has different manipulated versions of this graph, but when I try to visualize this graph, I never know how I should picture it. That is the most frustrating. It seems like there is no definitive answer to quench my visual problem, so I...

That makes sense, but is there no definitive shape for this graph? Because scales vary, any graph could be manipulated to look like anything. Isn't there standards for this kind of stuff? And I'm starting to grasp my 3D cross section question. You would have to define which planes were...

Background info for technical question: I just started a summer Calculus III course and the introductory topic is graphing in 3-space (just a warning I tend to over think everything). Our assignment was to visualize the graph of [SIZE="4"] Z = X^{2} + y^{2} I plotted points in a table from...
