1 Johanson's Number 11 October 2013 LO: to understand a proportionality equation Which of these statements are about direct and which inverse proportionality? y α x g α ∛ h 2 e α 1 √f c α 1 d a α b 3

2 For a gas: P = 6T V 1) Pressure is _________ proportional to volume 2) Pressure is _________ proportional to temperature 3) Temperature is ________ proportional to volume

3 Imagine a spherical object sitting still in a liquid. You give it a push. What factors about the object and the liquid will determine how much of an effect your push has?

4 Viscosity Density Length

5 Actually doing it...

6 A high Johnson's number means you don't have to push hard to move the object. A low Johanson's Number means you have to push really hard to move the object.

7 Jo α density x length viscosity Jo = density x length viscosity (but maybe with a constant of proportionality we'll ignore for now)

8 What will making the fluid more viscous do to the Johanson Number? What will doubling the length of the object do? What will halving the mass do?

9 What other equations with proportionality do you know from science?

10 Other examples of proportional relationships: 1) for an object going at constant speed, what is the relationship between: distance travelled and time 2) for an object, what is the relationship between: force due to gravity and mass? 3) for an object moving, what is the relationship between: the speed it is going at, and the time taken to get to its destination? 4) for a hole, what is the relationship between: the number of people digging, and the time taken to dig it? 5) for a tap filling a bucket, what is the relationship between the flow rate of the tap, and the time taken to fill the bucket?
