Apart from "Mechanics of Continuous Media",i have good understanding of other undergraduate physics topics as well.
I do not have enough time to go through the whole of fluid dynamics.
i want to know only 3 things in Mechanics of Continuous Media fo my exam.
(a) proof of stokes's law,poiseuille equation,elastic constants and their inter-relation.
please help with these topics.

Then I suggest you look through your lecture notes and textbooks. You will not be spoon fed answers here. However, if you are willing to put some effort in, we are more than happy to help you.

NOw i know the proof of stokes's law,poiseuille equation.
I never believed that the proof would be such a general one(u only need to know Newton's law).
All book except one(physical fluid mechanics by d.j tritton)were providing proof after digging into 100s of pages of fluid dynamics .
thanks D.J TRITTON
thanks you as well, even for not helping me.
