Define fluid dynamics in your own words.
Think about how fluids act when they flow.
What is an extensive property? Provide an example.
Consider properties that change if you had more or less fluid.
What is fluid dynamics primarily concerned with?
Think about what happens when fluids flow.
True or False: Intensive properties depend on the amount of the fluid present.
Consider how changing the volume of fluid affects properties.
A tank filled with water is connected to a pipe with varying diameters. If water is flowing out at a constant rate, apply the Reynolds transport theorem to explain how the properties change as the water flows through the narrowing pipe.
Consider the principles of continuity and Bernoulli's equation.
In a river entering a valley (control volume), describe how you would apply the Reynolds transport theorem to analyze the change in the water's mass and velocity as it flows through different sections of the valley.
Think about how water speeds up or slows down at different points in the valley.
