I How can I integrate variable velocity in fluid mechanics?

AI Thread Summary
To integrate variable velocity in fluid mechanics, understanding linear momentum is crucial. Resources like "Transport Phenomena" by Bird, Stewart, and Lightfoot, as well as "Landau and Lifshitz vol. 6," are recommended for deeper insights. Many users struggle to find practical examples of integration in available videos and literature. The choice of reference material may depend on the student's background and specific needs. Exploring these texts can enhance comprehension of momentum in fluid mechanics.

Material: momentum in fluid mechanics
Do you know of any place where I can look up things about the momentum (linear momentum) in fluid mechanics? It's just that when I have a variable velocity and it has to be integrated, I don't quite understand how to do it.

I have looked for videos and things and I can't find that they are integrating.

A very nice book on hydro is Landau and Lifshitz vol. 6.

Thread '1:1 versus 2:1 Mechanical Advantage debate'

The rope is tied into the person (the load of 200 pounds) and the rope goes up from the person to a fixed pulley and back down to his hands. He hauls the rope to suspend himself in the air. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? The person will indeed only have to lift half of his body weight (roughly 100 pounds) because he now lessened the load by that same amount. This APPEARS to be a 2:1 because he can hold himself with half the force, but my question is: is that mechanical...

Thread 'Newton's first law?'

Some physics textbook writer told me that Newton's first law applies only on bodies that feel no interactions at all. He said that if a body is on rest or moves in constant velocity, there is no external force acting on it. But I have heard another form of the law that says the net force acting on a body must be zero. This means there is interactions involved after all. So which one is correct?

Thread 'Beam on an inclined plane'

Hello! I have a question regarding a beam on an inclined plane. I was considering a beam resting on two supports attached to an inclined plane. I was almost sure that the lower support must be more loaded. My imagination about this problem is shown in the picture below. Here is how I wrote the condition of equilibrium forces: $$ \begin{cases} F_{g\parallel}=F_{t1}+F_{t2}, \\ F_{g\perp}=F_{r1}+F_{r2} \end{cases}. $$ On the other hand...
