The document contains solutions to problems about dimensional analysis and units from a fluid mechanics textbook. It shows calculations for quantities like Mach number, momentum flux, pressure loss, and drag to demonstrate that they are dimensionless or have the appropriate units. These solutions help students learn to properly apply units to equations in fluid mechanics.

1.2 The Mach number is a dimensionless ratio of the velocity of an object in a fluid to the speed of sound
in the fluid. For an airplane flying at velocity V in air at absolute temperature T, the Mach number Ma is,

where k is a dimensionless constant and R is the specific gas constant for air. Show that Ma is
dimensionless.

1.11 The momentum flux (discussed in Chapter 5) is given by the product mV
 , where m is mass flow
rate and V is velocity. If mass flow rate is given in units of mass per unit time, show that the momentum
flux can be expressed in units of force.

1.18 A commercial advertisement shows a pearl falling in a bottle of shampoo. If the diameter D of the
pearl is quite small and the shampoo sufficiently viscous, the drag 𝒟𝒟 on the pearl is given by Stokes’s law,

where V is the speed of the pearl and μ is the fluid viscosity. Show that the term on the right side of
Stokes’s law has units of force.
