Stokes' Law
Stokes' Law describes the relationship between the viscous drag force experienced by a small spherical object moving through a viscous fluid. It is a fundamental concept in fluid dynamics, particularly useful for understanding the motion of particles in liquids and gases.
Definition: Stokes' Law states that the drag force (F<sub>d</sub>) on a sphere moving slowly through a viscous fluid is directly proportional to the sphere's radius (r), the fluid's viscosity (η), and the sphere's velocity (v).
Equation: The mathematical expression for Stokes' Law is:
Assumptions and Limitations: Stokes' Law is based on several assumptions that limit its applicability:
Applications: Stokes' Law has numerous applications in various fields, including:
