Question
Differentiate between streamline flow and turbulent flow.
✓
Answer
| Stream line flow | Turbulent flow |
| (1) It is the systematic and regular flow of liquid | This is a disorganized and irregular flow of liquid |
| (2) In streamline flow the velocity of liquid is less than the critical velocity | In this flow the velocity of liquid is more than the critical velocity |
| (3) The direction of velocity of particles passing through a point remains constant | In this flow, the direction of velocity of particles passing through a point keeps changing. |
| (4) In this flow, eddy currents do not produce inside the liquid | In this flow, eddy currents produce inside the liquid |

Given the moment of inertia of a disc of mass M and radius R about any of its diameters to be $\frac{\text{MR}^2}{4},$ find its moment of inertia about an axis normal to the disc and passing through a point on its edge.
→The principle of ‘parallax’ in section $2.3.1$ is used in the determination of distances of very distant stars. The baseline AB is the line joining the Earth’s two locations six months apart in its orbit around the Sun. That is, the baseline is about the diameter of the Earth’s orbit $\approx 3 \times 10^{11}m$. However, even the nearest stars are so distant that with such a long baseline, they show parallax only of the order of $1”$ (second) of arc or so. A parsec is a convenient unit of length on the astronomical scale. It is the distance of an object that will show a parallax of $1”$ (second of arc) from opposite ends of a baseline equal to the distance from the Earth to the Sun. How much is a parsec in terms of metres?
