- Surface tension is due to uneven molecular attraction between immiscible fluid media and solid surface. Its importance is governed by dimensionless parameter Which of the Inertia force called Weber number given by We = Surface tension force™ following statements are correct? (i) Surface tension becomes important when the length scale L is small such as in ink jet printing, coating of thin film, oxygenation of water by falling rain drops. (ii) 111 Super-hydrophobicity can be achieved by micro/nano texturing of surface such as in lotus leave, butterfly and dragonfly wing. During oil spill in ocean, oil floats and spreads out due to gravity. By conservation of mass, the oil film becomes thinner as it spreads.

- In the following section, at least 2 to up to 5 answers may be correct. 1) For a fluid, the assumption (simplifying notion) of incompressibility has important consequences: Pascal’s principle: a change of pressure in an enclosed fluid at rest is transmitted undiminished to all points in the fluid. pressure changes are transmitted immediately from one place to another. the speed of sound then is infinite (just within this approximation). pressure becomes unpredictable. none of the above. 2) Archimedes’ principle can be summarized as: an immersed object is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces. a bathtub is fun, and may lead to important physical discoveries regarding the volume of an object and how much water it displaces, and the weight of that amount of water. boats swim because of the work done by sailors. submarines are always doomed. fish swim because they are less heavy than water 3) A…arrow_forwardplease show solution step by step with units.
