Equation of continuity for steady flow:

Liquid:

Volume flow rate =
[ v A ] = m3 / s

4. 2.6 Viscosity
flow with no viscosity
Viscosity: friction due to momentum transfer between adjacent fluid layers or between fluid & wall.
flow with viscosity

5. An effective and simple method for
The viscosity is a fluid property of resistance to flow. The viscosity of liquids arises primarily from the intermolecular forces within the liquid.
An effective and simple method for
measuring the viscosity of a fluid is to
measure the time of fall by gravity of
a sphere in the liquid of interest. B

6. Finally the viscosity may be determined from a measured value of the terminal velocity.

7. 2.7 Diffusion
Diffusion defined: The net movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

8. Molecules are always in motion
Difference between gas, liquid and solid

9. Molecules in solution tend to slowly spread apart over time
Molecules in solution tend to slowly spread apart over time. This is diffusion.

10. In solids the molecules are more or less stationary
All substances are made up of sub-microscopic particles called molecules
In gases (like air) the molecules can move freely
In liquids (like water) the molecules can also move
In solids the molecules are more or less stationary

11. Representation of molecules in a gas
(b)
As a result of their random movements the
molecules become evenly distributed

12. Diffusion in the Body Occurs across cell membranes
The cell membrane is differentially permeable (selective)

13. Diffusion of oxygen into a cell
The concentration of
oxygen molecules is
greater outside the cell
than inside
So the oxygen molecules
diffuse into the cell

14. Because the cell is using up oxygen, the
concentration of oxygen inside the cell is
always lower then the concentration
outside.

15. 2.8 Surface tension
If you look closely at a dewdrop sparkling in the morning sunlight, you will find that the drop is spherical. The drop takes this shape because of a property of liquid surfaces called surface tension. In order to understand the origin of surface tension, consider a molecule at point A in a container of water, as in this Figure
Although nearby molecules exert forces on this molecule, the net force on it is zero because it’s completely surrounded by other molecules and hence is attracted equally in all directions.

16. The molecule at B, however, is not attracted equally in all directions Because there are no molecules above it to exert upward forces, the molecule at B is pulled toward the interior of the liquid.
The contraction at the surface of the liquid ceases when the inward pull exerted on the surface molecules is balanced by the outward repulsive forces that arise from collisions with molecules in the interior of the liquid.
The net effect of this pull on all the surface molecules is to make the surface of the liquid contract and, consequently, to make the surface area of the liquid as small as possible

17. If you place a sewing needle very carefully on the surface of a bowl of water, you will find that the needle floats even though the density of steel is about eight times that of water. This phenomenon can also be explained by surface tension.
A close examination of the needle shows that it actually rests in a depression in the liquid surface as shown in this Figure, The water surface acts like an elastic membrane under tension.

18. The weight of the needle produces a depression, increasing the surface area of the film. Molecular forces now act at all points along the depression, tending to restore the surface to its original horizontal position. The vertical components of these forces act to balance the force of gravity on the needle. The floating needle can be sunk by adding a little detergent to the water, which reduces the surface tension.
The surface tension in a film of liquid is defined as the magnitude of the surface tension force F divided by the length L along which the force acts:

19. If you have ever closely examined the surface of water in a glass container, you may have noticed that the surface of the liquid near the walls of the glass curves upwards as you move from the center to the edge, as shown in this Figure .
However, if mercury is placed in a glass container, the mercury surface curves downwards. These surface effects can be explained by considering the forces between molecules.

20. In particular, we must consider the forces that the molecules of the liquid exert on one another and the forces that the molecules of the glass surface exert on those of the liquid.
In general terms, forces between like molecules, such as the forces between water molecules, are called cohesive forces, and forces between
unlike molecules, such as those
exerted by glass on water, are called
adhesive forces.
