This video guides you through the process of calculating the acceleration of a block sliding down an inclined plane with ...

In this video, we walk through the process of calculating the coefficient of friction and the force required to move a block. Using clear examples and step-by-step explanations, you'll gain a solid ...

has long been used for calculating the friction factor, f, for incompressible and some compressible flows in uniform pipes, ducts, and conduits. It is asymptotic to both the accepted smooth-surface ...

Sometimes you think you have a complete understanding of something and then BOOM—a simple problem throws everything out the window. Let's consider a very basic physics problem involving pushing a ...

Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...

Until now, the laws of resistance for transitional flow were unknown, making it difficult to calculate friction and energy loss during this type of flow. Cerbus and other researchers in the Fluid ...
