Physics A cylinder of 0.3m length and 0.1m diameter rotates about a vertical axis inside a fixed cylindrical tube of 105mm diameter, and 0.3m length. If the space between the tube and the cylinder is filled with liquid of dynamic viscosity of 0.125 Ns/m 2 . Determine the speed of rotation of the cylinder that will be obtained if an external torque of 1.0 N.m is applied to it.
How does the pressure vary at depth (Z) in liquid and gaseous fluids, and explain the reasons why there are differences.
The viscosity of a fluid is to be measured by a viscometer constructed of two 5-ft-long concentric cylinders. The inner diameter of the outer cylinder is 6 in, and the gap between the two cylinders is 0.035 in. The outer cylinder is rotated at 250 rpm, and the torque is measured to be 1.2 lbf⋅ft. Determine the viscosity of the fluid
