A particle is executing Simple Harmonic Motion of amplitude 6 m and period 3⋅ 5
seconds. Find the maximum velocity of the particle.
Write the limitations of the Malthusian model of population growth.
Write the three-dimensional Gaussian model dispersion for the atmospheric pollution
problem. Modify the model under the following assumptions:
(i) Wind velocity is in only y -direction.
(ii) Mass transfer due to bulk motion in the y -direction overshadows the
contributions due to mass diffusion.
(iii) Motion is in steady state.
(iv) Wind speed is constant.
(v) Diffusivities are constant in all the directions.
Consider the blood flow in an artery following Poiseuille’s law. If the length of the
artery is 3 cm, radius is 7×10-3 cam and driving force is
5×103 dynes/cm2, then
using blood viscosity, µ = 0 ⋅ 027 poise, find the
(i) velocity u( y) and the maximum peak velocity of blood, and
(ii) shear stress at the wall of the artery.
A body is falling free in a vacuum. The fall is necessarily related to the gravitational
acceleration g and the height h from which the body is dropped. Use dimensional
analysis to show that the velocity V of the falling body satisfies the relation
V / √gh = constant
