I want to circulate cold water through copper tubing curled in a spiral about a fan. I'll cool the water with a large block of ice that I can remove and replace like a battery. To avoid making a mess I can freeze the ice inside of a copper housing, and pump the water in copper tubes around that...
Hi,
I'm trying to calculate the vibrational energy of a water droplet for a given vibrational amplitude.
Rayleigh wrote about this in Proc. R. Soc. Lond., volume 29, 1879, "On the Capillary Phenomena of Jets", Appendix II, but he makes some simplifications (as I understand it) and I also...
Lets say you have planet with 2 Earth radii and 8 Earth masses. The atmosphere is 50 bar and is made up of 85% nitrogen, 10% hydrogen 3% argon, 1% CO2 and 1% other gases. The planets average temperature is 280 K/44 F.
Since CO2 is a liquid at this pressure and temperature would it form rivers...

A U-tube has vertical arms of radii r and 2r, connected by a horizontal tube of length l whose radius increases linearly from r to 2r. The U-tube contains liquid up to a height h in each arm. The liquid is set oscillating, and at a given instant the liquid in the narrower...
I have a enclosed system for cooling bearing housings with oil. I need to calculate the rough pressure that will be produced when the oil pump is switched on. The oil will be pumped from a small tank, through the system and back into the tank.

Note: this is not a homework question; this is strictly conceptual in understanding the equations at work in this scenario.
The tank is vacuum-insulated, the liquid is saturated, and the vents have just been opened in order to vent down the ullage pressure. My question is simply how do you...

This is more of a conceptual question rather than a homework problem. This is my first post, so apologies if this is in the wrong section.

According to the formula p = ρgh, p→0 as g→0. Thus there is no...
i have been studying pressure and hydrostatics

A magnet only attract ferromagnetic material because they have magnetic domains which will align to form magnetic dipole when external magnetic field applied.
Paramagnet don't have domains. Due to the presence of some unpaired electron, they will cause the realignment of the electron path when...
This seems to be a relatively simple question, yet I'm not sure of the answer.
A balloon filled with helium gas floats in air. If I submerged a balloon or container in a liquid (e.g. water), is there a liquid with which I can fill the container so as to make it float to the surface. What kind...
I was digging a trench next to a building today so rain water would not back up to the buildings wall. Most of the material was soil but there were some large chunks of concrete. The largest chunk of concrete that was too heavy to move was pryed up and supported on the left and right sides with...
Dear all fellow physicists,
I am struggling with the following fluid mechanics problem: considering a liquid film in an "equilibrium" position between two plane walls, I am trying to define the forces acting on the liquid.

My friend and I are trying to design a simple liquid-cooled heat exchanger and I'm getting some odd results so I wanted to get another set of eyes on my math here. We're running four 1.5m sections of nylon tube in parallel through the heat source, which was a thermal input of 265W. The cooling...

Honestly, I don't have any idea on this. As far as I remember, the usual practice is to equate the excess pressure equal to ##2T/R## (where T is the surface tension and R is the radius of curvature, this may be wrong...
I had a question about the volume of vapor produced from an amount of liquid after increasing the pressure inside a container containing the liquid, then rapidly decreasing it back to the original pressure.
Say you have an amount of water, say 1mL (or another liquid, not sure what descriptors...
Since my high school days, I learned that glass is a liquid. (Science naive students thought glass is solid, and the smarty pants knew it was actually a liquid:) Yesterday, while I was telling this interesting fact to my daughter, my wife argued that glass is solid. I googled to explain them why...
Hi!
So I'm a bit confused: first off, does Fermi liquid theory have "order". I suppose it depends on how you define order. But in case it does, is it described by symmetry breaking?
From what I read, I think it does have order which is not described by symmetry breaking. But then I have...
I have one question about optics because I start interested in it.

Is there a way to create visible/"liquid" energy?
Probably a more low-brow topic than you're used to but I have plenty of gadgets, materials and tools at my disposal and I wish to improve the quality of some replicas I've made. A common denominator of any sci-fi gizmo is the glowing energy...
I remember seeing a liquid that changes color when you shake it and then changes back to it's original color when it settles. Does anyone know what reaction this is? I would like to do it for a school project. Also, does this last forever, or will it eventually stop? If this does not work, does...
I have a liquid that is stored at pressure. This liquid is then released to a lower pressure where it should become a gas. The problem is how long does it take for the liquid to turn to gas.
There must be some delay - even a very small one - but how to calculate it.
Example - a jet of...
Hi, I brew beer and part of the process is measuring the specific gravity of the fermenting liquid. This is done visually using a hydrometer. Digital hydrometers are available and very expensive. I'm trying to come up with a way to measure the liquid specific gravity electronically. Typical...
Hi All,
