- As indicated by the derivation, the principle of work and energy is valid for observers in any inertial reference frame. Show that this is so, by considering the 10-kg block which rests on the smooth surface and is subjected to a horizontal force of 6 N. If observer A is in a fixed frame x, determine the final speed of the block if it has an initial speed of 5 m/s and travels 10 m, both directed to the right and measured from the fixed frame. Compare the result with that obtained by an observer B, attached to the x' axis and moving at a constant velocity of 2 m/s relative to A. Hint: The distance the block travels will first have to be computed for observer B before applying the principle of work and energy.

Identify the correct sequence of the steps according to their numbering to solve the equations. Write out and simplify the differential equations (continuity and the required components of Navier–Stokes) as much as possible. List all appropriate assumptions, approximations, simplifications, and boundary conditions. Solve (integrate) the differential equations. These lead to one or more constants of integration. Lay out the problem and the geometry. Identify all relevant dimensions and parameters. Verify the results by checking that the flow field meets all the specifications and boundary conditions.
