Chapter 1, Problem 37P
From Appendix A, the viscosity μ(N·s/m2) of water at temperature T(K) can be computed from μ = A10B/(T − C), where A = 2.414 × 10−5 N·s/m2, B = 247.8 K, and C =140 K. Determine the viscosity of water at 30°C, and estimate its uncertainty if the uncertainty in temperature measurement is ±0.5°C.

The variation of the dynamic viscosity of water with absolute temperature is given as Using these tabulated data, develop a relation for viscosity in the form of ? = ? (T ) = A + BT + CT2 + DT3 + ET4. Using the relation developed, predict the dynamic viscosity of water at 50°C at which the reported value is 5.468 × 10−4 Pa⋅s. Compare your result with the results of Andrade’s equation, which is given in the form of ? = D⋅eB/T, where D and B are constants whose values are to be determined using the viscosity data given.
Problem 3: A honeybee farmer wants to measure the absolute viscosity of his honey. You suggest
dropping a 4mm steel ball into a container of honey and measure the time it takes for the ball to pass
between two marks as shown. If the time is 13 seconds, what is the honey's viscosity. Assume the
density of the honey is 1450 kg/m3 and the density of the steel ball is 7800 kg/m³.

- In medical work, pressures are often measured in units of mm of H2O because body fluids, including the cerebrospinal fluid, typically have nearly the same density as water. The pressure of the cerebrospinal fluid can be measured by means of a spinal tap. A hollow tube is inserted into the spinal column, and the height to which the fluid rises is observed. If the fluid rises to a height of 160 mm, we write its gauge pressure as 160 mm H2O. a) Sometimes it is necessary to determine whether an accident victim has suffered a crushed vertebra that is blocking the flow of cerebrospinal fluid in the spinal column. In other cases, a physician may suspect that a tumor or other growth is locking the spinal column and inhibiting the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. Such conditions can be investigated by means of the Queckensted test. In this procedure the veins in the patient’s neck are compressed, to make the blood pressure rise in the brain.
