Chapter 1, Problem 37P

From Appendix A, the viscosity μ(N·s/m2) of water at temperature T(K) can be computed from μ = A10B/(T C), where A = 2.414 × 10−5 N·s/m2, B = 247.8 K, and C =140 K. Determine the viscosity of water at 30°C, and estimate its uncertainty if the uncertainty in temperature measurement is ±0.5°C.

The Falling Ball viscometer is designed based on the equilibrium relationship between the ball weight, buoyant force and drag force. The density of the fluid inside tube is  = 872.00 kg/m3. The diameter of the ball is D = 6.00 mm. The mass of the ball is m = 0.12 g. The travel time is recorded as t = 23.60 s for the distance L= 0.18 m between point 1 and 2.  (3) Determine the dynamic viscosity of the fluid_________ Pa·s
Bernoulli's theory experiment For the application of Bernoulli’s theory, there are restricted conditions, including that the viscosity of the fluid is considered zero, that it is a non-pressurized fluid, and that the two atmospheres are one away.
