EXPERIMENT 2
DETERMINATION OF LIQUID VISCOSITY BY STOCK`S METHOD
Stokes Law:
Fd= 6πµVr
Now,
EQUIPMENTS:
1. Graduated cylinder.
2. Digital balance.
3. Micrometer.
4. Vernier.
5. Ruler.
6. Stop-watch.
7. Metallic ball.
8. Different liquids (olive oil, engine oil).
3) Next you will need to measure the fall time of the sphere through the
fluid that contained in the()-mL graduated cylinder. To do this use the
stopwatch to measure the amount of time it takes for the sphere to fall
from the ()-mL mark to the ()-mL mark.
5) Measure the distance using the ruler between the upper graduation line
and the lower graduation line.
6) Now using the time recorded from the stopwatch for each sphere
dropped and thedistance measurement between the graduation lines,
determine the velocity ofeach sphere as it passed through the fluid (cm/s).
7) Using Stokes’ Law provided in the lab manual, determine the viscosity
(µ) of the fluid using the average velocity of the three spheres.
12.Should the viscosity found for two different size spheres be the
same? Why or why not?
Viscosity for the same liquid will not change. Size of the spheres
will effect the velocity and density not visscocity
Conclusion:
