Question 1
A simple and accurate viscometer can be made from a length of capillary tubing. If the flow rate and pressure drop are measured, and the tube geometry is known, the viscosity of Newtonian liquid can be computed. A test of a certain liquid in a capillary viscometer gave the following data:
Flow rate: 880 mm3/s, Tube length: 1 m, Tube diameter: 0.50 mm, Pressure drop: 1.0 MPa
The viscosity of liquid will be (
), assuming the flow to be laminar.
