1 Fluid Mechanics Testbank By David Admiraal This testbank was created for an introductory fluid mechanics class. The primary intentions of the testbank are to help students improve their performance on quizzes and to give dedicated students a chance to learn the course material more thoroughly. Most of the questions in the testbank can be done in a short amount of time, although there are some numerical questions that require more thought. A few of the multiple-choice questions were taken directly from previous quizzes, and I plan to use some of these questions in future quizzes and tests to reward students who use the testbank. Questions included with this sample testbank are mostly from the areas of fluids properties and hydrostatics, although there are also a few questions related to fluid dynamics. In the future I plan to expand the testbank to include questions from all of the subject areas that are currently taught in the class.

2 Questions Section 1: Fluids Properties 1. According to Newton's law of viscosity, the shear stress in a fluid is. (a) inversely proportional to the depth of the fluid (b) proportional to the depth of the fluid (c) inversely proportional to the velocity gradient in the fluid (d) proportional to the velocity gradient in the fluid Correct Answer: (d) 2. What is the primary difference between dynamic viscosity (µ) and kinematic viscosity (ν)? (a) Kinematic viscosity is independent of pressure. (b) Dynamic viscosity is independent of pressure. (c) Dynamic viscosity is independent of temperature. (d) Kinematic viscosity is independent of temperature. Correct Answer: (b) Type: Fill in the blank Randomization: None Notes: (i) It would be easy to change this problem so that the distance between the plates, the relative velocity of the plates or the viscosity of the fluid changes each time the student redoes the problem. (ii) The units required in numerical problems are somewhat cumbersome for students. I have not yet found a way to do a fill-in the blank problem that specifies the units for the student. 3.

The vertical force is the product of the specific weight of the fluid and the volume above the curved surface and below the fluid free surface

12 Section 3: Fluid Dynamics 1. A fluid that can be considered to be both incompressible and frictionless is called: (a) A laminar fluid (b) A turbulent fluid (c) A viscous fluid (d) An Eulerian fluid (e) An ideal fluid Correct Answer: (e), fluid may be a gas or a liquid, temperature may increase or decrease. 2.
