SECTION-B
2. What is meant by intensity of pressure? How it varies with the depth of fluid? Discuss.
3. Define stream function and clearly bring out its physical significance. Enumerate some of
the salient features of the stream function.
4. What is meant by turbulence? How does it affect the flow properties? Discuss.
5. Differentiate between fundamental quantities and derived quantities.
6. How metacentric height is determined? Discuss.

SECTION-C
7. Describe Buckingham's Pi theorem for dimensional analysis.
8. The stream function in a two dimensional flow ? = 6x ? 4y + 7xy. Check whether the
flow is irrotational. Make calculations for the acceleration of the fluid element and the
direction of streamline at point P (1, ?1).
9. Derive Euler?s equation of motion along a stream line for an ideal fluid stating clearly the
assumptions made.
