Goals:
After this class you should be able to:
- Derive an integral equation governing conservation of momentum.
- Apply it to determine all relevant forces in a pipe or other geometries.
Reading
- The class notes.
- Middleman, section 11.2
Additional Readings:
In our class demonstration today we looked at how a thin drop of dye (water)
breaks up when dropped onto a concentrated surfactant (Triton X-100). The water
drop was torn apart forming streamers and several generations of a fractal pattern.
Fractals are the result of non-linear dynamical systems, and are studied in the general
field of Chaos Theory. For an introduction to this area, as well as some really neat
pictures, go here.
