How does surface tension and viscosity affect the flow of liquids?
Viscosity is the resistance of flow and surface tension is the lateral force of the bonds between the molecules
Does lava flow to the surface and become a magma?
No. Magma flows to the surface and becomes lava.
What type of opening in the earth's surface allows melted rock to flow out?
A volcano or volcanic vent is an opening in the earth's surface that allows melted rock (lava) to flow out.
What can errupt to to bring lava flow to earts surface?
Volcano
What is the opening through which molten rock flow to the surface?
fissure
Differentiate between open channel flow and pipe flow-?
The open channel flow has a free surface whereas the pipe flow has a closed surface.
Differentiate between open channel flow and pipe flow?
The open channel flow has a free or rather open surface whereas the pipe flow has a closed surface.
Running water above earth surface?
surface runoff (also known as overland flow or terrestrial runoff) is the unconfined flow of water over the ground surface, in contrast to channel runoff (or stream flow)
Does the surface of mars have long channels from water flow?
They believe that it is from water flow.
How does surface tension and viscosity affect the flow of liquids?
Viscosity is the resistance of flow and surface tension is the lateral force of the bonds between the molecules
What is the definition for attached flow?
Fluid that it attracted to a nearby surface and remains attached even when the surface curves away from the initial flow direction.
Does lava flow to the surface and become a magma?
No. Magma flows to the surface and becomes lava.
Why is a substance able to flow?
Because of surface tension
What is a consistent flow of surface is an ocean?
oceans and seas
What type of opening in the earth's surface allows melted rock to flow out?
A volcano or volcanic vent is an opening in the earth's surface that allows melted rock (lava) to flow out.
What is the natural opening where water can return to the surface?
A spring is where water can flow naturally onto the surface.
What is Coanda effect?
The Coanda effect occurs due to the presence of a curved surface immersed in a flowing fluid when the surface curves away from the flow. The flow 1) causes a lowered pressure at the surface and 2) entrains fluid to flow towards the surface. The effect can be seen as smoke streams in a wind tunnel follow the shape of, e.g. a streamlined automobile. Another example is a water flow adhering to the back of a spoon. This is caused primarily by the Van der Waals (surface tension) forces between the water and the surface of the spoon.
