How Do You Linearize the Euler Equations for Fluid Motion?

AI Thread Summary
To linearize the Euler equations for fluid motion, one approach involves using Taylor series expansion around a specific point, such as x=0. This method aims to simplify the equations into linear forms for variables like energy (E) and velocity (v). The goal is to express the equations as a single partial differential equation, focusing on pressure perturbations. Understanding the underlying principles of Taylor series can aid in this process. Overall, the discussion emphasizes the need for a systematic approach to linearization in fluid dynamics.

Not sure how I would be able to do this.

Do you know how Taylor series work? Try to use the same concept here around a point x=0 (or something else).
 
I'm not sure how that would help.
 
I think it will give linear equations for linear expressions of E, v and so on.
 
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
