Each layer of the the other layer. It behaves as if di ing over one anothe: slides over lamina are Turbulent flow. When the liquid velocity exceeds a certain limi value, called critical velocity, the liquid flow becomes zig- zag. The path and the velocity of a liquid Particle changes continuously, haphazardly. I" c BERNOULLI'S PRINCIPLE any States that the sum of pressure energy, kinetic energy and potential energy per unit volume of an incompressible, non-viscous fluid in a streamlined irrotational flow remains constant along a streamline.

Tho dimensions of various quantities are (F] = [MLT~*] ,m = [ML T-4] [rl = (Uv) = (LT) Substituting these dimensions in equation (1), we get [MLT~2] = [MLAT}(LPLT 1] ees Equating the powers M,|_ and T on both sides, seek cA ee ant oe ie. C 2 On solving, a Feknrv Condi @ The flui has infini through which the body moves extension. (i) The body is perfectly rigid and smooth. (ii) There is no slip between the body and fluid. (iv) The motion of the body does not give rise to turbulent motion and eddies. Hence motion is streamlined. (v) The size of the body is small but it is larger than the distance between the molecules of the liquid. Thus the medium is TERMINAL VELOCITY The maximum constant velocity acquired by a body while falling through a viscous medium is called its terminal velocity.
