- Two pipe systems can be said to be equivalent, when the following quantities are same
- At the center line of a pipe flowing under pressure where the velocity gradient is zero, the shear stress will be
- If the ratio's of the corresponding forces acting at corresponding points are equal, then the model and the prototype are said to have.
- The discharge through a reaction turbine with increase in unit speed
- The specific speed of a centrifugal pump, delivering 750 liters of water per second against a head of 15 meters at 725 r.p.m., is
- The specific weight of sea water is __________ that of pure water.
- When a body is immersed wholly or partially in a liquid, it is lifted up by a force equal to the weight of liquid displaced by the body. This statement is called
- For a perfect incompressible liquid, flowing in a continuous stream, the total energy of a particle remains the same, while the particle moves from one point to another. This statement is called
- The force exerted by a moving fluid on an immersed body is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum due to the presence of the body. This statement is called
- A moving fluid mass may be brought to a static equilibrium position, by applying an imaginary inertia force of the same magnitude as that of the accelerating force but in the opposite direction. This statement is called
