Extractions: Background Each of us has a world view that influences or even determines how we act and react. New ideas challenge us. Competing ideas lead to changes in what people think and how they behave, whether through reason or force. In 1864, Abraham Lincoln presided over a country divided by a bloody civil war that defined certain principles of human dignity for which the United States continues to aspire. There were other less violent changes occurring in 1864. Louis Pasteur , who had recently introduced the idea of optical isomerism with tartaric acids , worked to convince critics that fermentation of glucose to ethanol and carbon dioxide occurred within living cells and soon he would refute ideas of spontaneous generation (1). Charles Darwin 's, The Origin of Species published in 1859, continued to challenge scientists and the public to confront their relationship to other living things and their religious convictions (2). In an Austrian monastery, Gregor Mendel worked on the genetics of peas not knowing the profound effect his ideas would have on biology in the next century. Many things that we take for granted were unknown or viewed differently in the mid 19th century. As you read this

Extractions: STOKES, Sir George Gabriel Matemático e físico britânico nascido em Skreen, Sligo, Irlanda, 13 de agosto de 1819 faleceu em Cambridge, Inglaterra, 1.0 de fevereiro de 1903. Stokes foi o oitavo e mais novo filho de um clérigo. Graduou-se em Cambridge (1841) como o mais brilhante aluno de matemática de sua turma e essa promessa logo se converteria em realidade. Em 1849, foi nomeado professor lucasiano de matemática em Cambridge; em secretário da Royal Society; e, em 1885, presidente dessa famosa agremiação científica britânica. Ninguém exercera cumulativamente essas três funções desde Isaac Newton, um século e meio antes. A acuidade da visão de Stokes pode ser avaliada pelo fato de haver sido ele um dos primeiros cientistas de sua época a reconhecer o valor do trabalho de Joule. Em 1845 e 1850, Stokes trabalhou na teoria dos fluidos viscosos. Deduziu uma equação (lei de Stokes) que poderia ser aplicada ao movimento de uma pequena esfera ao cair dentro de um meio viscoso, para obter a sua velocidade sob influência de uma força dada, tal como a gravidade. Essa equação podia ser usada para explicar a maneira pela qual as nuvens flutuavam no ar e as ondas se desfaziam na água. Poder-se-ia também utilizá-la em problemas de ordem prática que envolvessem a resistência da água aos navios que nela se moviam. Na verdade, a interconexão da ciência é sempre de tal ordem que. seis décadas depois de haver sido enunciada. a lei de Stokes viria a ser empregada para um objetivo que jamais se poderia prever ajudar a estabelecer a carga elétrica de um único elétron na experiência de Millikan.

Extractions: Link to Previous Lecture Weve seen how viscosity acts as a frictional brake on the rate at which water flows through a pipe, let us now examine its frictional effect on an object falling through a viscous medium, to make it simple, we take a sphere. If we take a very viscous liquid, such as glycerin, and a small sphere, for example a ball bearing of diameter a few millimeters, it turns out experimentally that the liquid flows smoothly around the ball as it falls, with a flow pattern like: (The arrows show the fluid flow as seen by the ball. This smooth flow only takes place for fairly slow motion , as we shall see.) If we knew mathematically precisely how the velocity in this flow pattern varied near the ball, we could find the total viscous force on the ball by finding the velocity gradient near each little area of the balls surface, and doing an integral. But actually this is quite difficult. It was done in the 1840s by Sir George Gabriel Stokes. He found what has become known as Stokes Law: the drag force on a sphere of radius a moving through a fluid of viscosity h at speed v is given by: F (drag) = 6 p a h v Note that this drag force is directly proportional to the radius Thats not obviousone might have thought it would be proportional to the cross-section area, which would go as the square of the radius. The drag force is also

Extractions: George Gabriel Stokes Born: 13 Aug 1819 in Skreen, County Sligo, Ireland Died: 1 Feb 1903 in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England George Stokes established the science of hydrodynamics with his law of viscosity. Stokes published papers on the motion of incompressible fluids in 1842-43 and on the friction of fluids in motion and the equilibrium and motion of elastic solids in 1845. In 1849 Stokes was appointed Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge. In 1851 Stokes was elected to the Royal Society and was secretary of the Society from 1854 to 1884 when he was elected president. He investigated the wave theory of light, named and explained the phenomenon of fluorescence in 1852, and in 1854 theorised an explanation of the Fraunhofer lines in the solar spectrum. He suggested these were caused by atoms in the outer layers of the Sun absorbing certain wavelengths. However when Kirchhoff later published this explanation Stokes disclaimed any prior discovery. Stokes developed mathematical techniques for application to physical problems, founded the science of geodesy, and greatly advanced the study of mathematical physics in England. His mathematical and physical papers were published in 5 volumes, the first 3 of which Stokes edited himself in 1880, 1883 and 1891. The last 2 were edited by Sir Joseph Larmor in 1887 and 1891.

Extractions: Stokes's Law George Gabriel Stokes was an Irish-born mathematician who spent much of his life working with fluid properties. He is most famous for his work describing the motion of a sphere through viscous fluids. This lead to the the development of Stokes's Law. This equation shows the force needed to move a small sphere through a continuous, quiescent fluid at a certain velocity. It is based primarily on the radius of the sphere and the viscosity of the fluid. The equation he developed is F=6(pi)RnVc, where R is the radius of the sphere, n is the viscosity, and Vc is the velocity through a continuous fluid. This equation can be manipulated to calculate the viscosity of the fluid. An explanation is given in the partial lab write-up linked below. Stokes's work was further refined later to account for "wall (or edge) effects" and "end effects" by Gibson and Jacobs in 1920. These phenomena result in a slower observed velocity because the medium is not continuous. The wall effect correction accounts for the compression of the liquid against the sides of the container holding the fluid as the sphere moves through. This is based on a ratio between the sphere radius and the inner radius of the cylinder. To see a demonstration of the wall effect, click here (if you are viewing this outside the campus of Concordia College, Moorhead, the graphics may be of low resolution or may not work properly).
