Objectives Be flexible because objectives in this section are somewhat fluid at this juncture.
4
Reading Activity Questions?
5
Viscosity A friction force between adjacent layers of fluid as the layers move past one another In liquids, it is mainly due to the cohesive forces between molecules In gases, it is caused by collisions between molecules. Coefficient of viscosity, η (lowercase eta) (Pa-s)
6
Viscosity Determined by measuring the force required to move a plate over a stationary one with a given amount of liquid between them
7
Viscosity Determined by measuring the force required to move a plate over a stationary one with a given amount of liquid between them
8
Viscosity Units for η (eta) are N·s/m 2 or Pa·s CGS is dyne·s/cm 2 which is called a poise (P) 100 centipoise (cP) = 1P
9
Coefficients of Viscosity
10
Temperatures are specified because it has a strong effect on viscosity Viscosity for most fluids decreases rapidly with increase in temperature
11
Flow In Tubes: Poiseuille’s Equation Without viscosity, fluids could flow freely without an applied force Because of viscosity, a pressure difference between the ends of the tube are necessary to cause the fluid to flow
12
Flow In Tubes: Poiseuille’s Equation Rate of flow of a fluid depends on: Viscosity Pressure difference Dimensions of the tube Poiseuille’s Equation assumes Fluid is incompressible Laminar flow
13
Flow In Tubes: Poiseuille’s Equation Q is the volume rate of flow in m 3 /s r is the inside radius of the tube L is the length of the tube P 1 -P 2 is the pressure difference between the ends η is the coefficient of viscosity
14
Flow In Tubes: Poiseuille’s Equation Q, the volume rate of flow is Directly proportional to the pressure difference Inversely proportional to the viscosity and length of the tube Directly proportional to the fourth power of the radius
15
Flow In Tubes: Poiseuille’s Equation Q, the volume rate of flow is Directly proportional to the fourth power of the radius Do blood vessels have constant diameter?
16
Flow In Tubes: Poiseuille’s Equation Q, the volume rate of flow is Directly proportional to the fourth power of the radius Do blood vessels have constant diameter? Blood vessel diameter decreases as they branch out The body controls blood vessel diameter by bands of muscles surrounding the arteries Arteriosclerosis and cholesterol buildup decrease diameter forcing a higher pressure gradient for same blood flow
17
Surface Tension Because of the cohesion of liquid molecules, the surface of a liquid acts like a stretched membrane under tension Drip of a faucet Water beading on a surface Meniscus in a test tube
18
Surface Tension Surface tension, γ, is defined as the force, F, per unit length, L that, across any line in a surface, tends to pull the surface closed
19
Surface Tension Because of surface tension, insects can walk on water and objects more dense than water can ‘float’
20
Surface Tension Soaps and detergents contain substances called surfactants that decrease the surface tension of water Allows the water to penetrate crevices and between fibers
21
Capillarity Water in a glass will tend to ‘stick’ to the glass and slope upward at the edges toward the glass Mercury, on the other hand, tends to ‘stick’ more to itself and slopes downward toward the glass Sloping upward or downward is a function of the liquid’s cohesion and adhesion properties and the surface it is in contact with
22
Capillarity Cohesion refers to the attractive force between molecules of the same type (the liquid) Adhesion refers to the attractive force between molecules of different types (the liquid and the glass)
23
Capillarity In tubes of relatively small diameter, liquids will either rise or fall relative to surrounding fluid based on its adhesive and cohesive properties Fluids with strong adhesive properties will rise Fluids with strong cohesive properties will fall The amount of rise or fall depends on the surface tension Capillarity Demonstration
24
Important News Because of time constraints, battle fatigue and PTSD, there are no homework problems for 10-12 and 10-13 Concepts from 10-12 and 10-13 (i.e. Reading Activity) are testable Read through section 10-13 on your own and pay special attention to the Reading Activity!
