Does the Angle of a V-Tube Influence Fluid Oscillations?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on determining how the angle of a V-shaped tube affects fluid oscillations in a "fractionless" fluid. The original poster is familiar with oscillations in U-shaped tubes but struggles to incorporate the angle into the equations for the V-tube. They initially believe the angle may not influence oscillations but express doubt about this conclusion. After some back-and-forth, the poster ultimately resolves their question independently, indicating a lack of external assistance. The conversation highlights the complexity of fluid dynamics in varying tube shapes.

Homework Statement


Basically, the goal of the "project" is to find the equation for oscillation of a "fractionless" fluid in a v-shaped tube, regarding the angle. I know how to solve the same problem regarding a u-shaped tube, but in this case, I can't figure out where to place the angle in the equation... Does the angle even affect the osciallations at all? From where I am now, it seems like it doesn't, but I doubt that's true. Any help is appreciated, thank you :)

Homework Equations


Simple harmonic motion equation.

The Attempt at a Solution


So, I'm currently at w(angular frequency)=sqrt[2*g/(hl+hd/cos(angle)]... is that right?

does anyone have a clue?
 
anybody?
 
Nvm guys, figured it out... thanks for nothing. :)
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
