Fluids
How does increasing temperature affect entropy for most substances under normal conditions?
Entropy generally increases because higher temperatures result in increased molecular randomness.
Entropy first decreases, then increases since temperature has varying effects on molecular activity depending on the substance.
Entropy generally decreases because molecules lose kinetic energy at higher temperatures.
Entropy remains unchanged since temperature change does not affect molecular order.
If two identical containers are filled with water but one container has twice as many holes at its base as compared to another, how does this alteration influence time taken for both tanks' complete drainage assuming hole sizes and initial levels remain same?
INNCROREACT FOUR NO CHANGE OCCUR BECAUSE EACH INDIVIDUAL HOLE CONTROLS ITS OWN FLOW RATE AND ADDITIONAL HOLES DO NOT ALTER PRESSURE CONDITIONS AT BASE OF CONTAINER NOR IMPACT ON NET DISCHARGES OBSERVED WHEN ALL FACTORS HELD EQUAL EXCEPT NUMBER OPENINGS INVOLVED.
INCCORECTTIVE THREE TANK WITH MORE HOLES WILL ACTUALLY RETAIN WATER LONGER SINCE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY IS COMPROMISED REDUCING OVERALL RIGIDITY THUS SLOWING DRAINAGE PROCESS.
Time taken halves because twice as many holes allow twice volume per time unit draining resulting from equations governing efflux speeds particularly Torricelli's Law which establishes direct relation between number holes present drain rate.
INCCORECTED IN CORRECTORAL ANSWER CREATION PREDICTABLE FROM SINGLE HOLE PROPERTIES ALONE SUCH AS DIAMETER OR DEPTH ABOVE ENTRY POINT WITHOUT REGARD TO AGGREGATE EFFECTS OF MULTIPLE OUTLETS THROUGH WHICH FLUID CAN ESCAPE SYSTEM.
In an apparatus comparing drag forces on different shapes in fluid flow, how might one minimize systematic error when measuring force exerted on objects?
Calibration of force sensors prior to each set of measurements and after any adjustments are made to equipment settings or positions.
Substituting another liquid with similar properties but lower density than water as it may produce more noticeable results quickly due its reduced inertia effects on immersed shapes.
Increasing fluid velocity so that drag forces become more pronounced and easier to detect against background noise.
Using shapes with more surface area so as to amplify any effects resulting from drag forces within the fluid medium.
Which of these units represents volume in fluid systems?
Hertz (Hz)
Kilogram (kg)
Cubic meter (m³)
Meter per second squared (m/s²)
What change occurs within Bernoulli’s equation when fluid moves from an area with turbulent flow immediately into one where there’s laminar flow without any heat exchange or external work being done?
Decrease kinetic energy due gravitational pull slowing fluids motion
Increase in fluid speed due misconduct decrease inner energy dissipation from turbulence
No change total mechanical energy conserved despite different types flows
Increase Increased potential energy resulting height difference between regions
In Pascal’s Principle, what happens to an enclosed fluid when pressure is applied at one point?
The same increase in pressure occurs everywhere else within the contained liquid.
Only the region around the application point experiences increased pressure.
Pressure becomes zero at the bottom containment surface.
The pressure decreases proportionally with distance from the applied point.
What physical quantity remains constant when considering an ideal fluid flowing through a pipe with varying cross-sectional areas?
Pressure (P).
Speed (v).
Velocity (v).
Mass flow rate ().

When a gas expands isothermally, how does the internal energy of the system change?
The internal energy increases due to work done on the system.
The internal energy remains constant.
The internal energy decreases as heat is transferred out of the system.
The internal energy increases due to an increase in temperature.
What happens to the speed of a positively charged particle as it enters uniformly into an electric field that points in the opposite direction of its initial motion?
It initially increases then decreases.
It decreases.
It remains constant.
It increases.
In a closed pipe, if you increase the speed of a fluid, what will happen to its pressure according to Bernoulli's principle?
The viscosity of the fluid doubles.
The temperature rises significantly.
The pressure increases.
The pressure decreases.
