1) The maximum diameter of a steel ball that would float on water is 7.44 mm, as calculated using the surface tension, gravitational acceleration, and density of steel. 2) The maximum diameter of an aluminum ball that would float on water is 12.84 mm, as calculated using the same method but with the density of aluminum. 3) Surface tension allows small solid objects to float due to the relationship between surface tension force and weight, with surface tension dominating at small sizes.

A 50-cm x 30-cm x 20-cm block weighing 150 N is to be moved at a constant
velocity of 0.80 m/s on an inclined surface with a friction coefficient of 0.27. (a)
Determine the force F that needs to be applied in the horizontal direction. (b) If
a 0.40-mm-thick oil film with a dynamic viscosity of 0.012 Pa-s is applied
between the block and inclined surface, determine the percent reduction in the
required force.

Consider the flow of a fluid with viscosity  through a circular pipe. The velocity
profile in the pipe is given as u(r)= umax(1- rn/Rn), where umax is the maximum
flow velocity, which occurs at the centerline; r is the radial distance from the
centerline; and u(r) is the flow velocity at any position r. Develop a relation for
the drag force exerted on the pipe wall by the fluid in the flow direction per
unit length of the pipe.

A thin 30-cm x 30-cm flat plate is pulled at 3 m/s horizontally through a 3.6-
mm-thick oil layer sandwiched between two plates, one stationary and the
other moving at a constant velocity of 0.3 m/s, as shown in Fig. P2–81. The
dynamic viscosity of the oil is 0.027 Pa-s. Assuming the velocity in each oil
layer to vary linearly, (a) plot the velocity profile and find the location where
the oil velocity is zero and (b) determine the force that needs to be applied
on the plate to maintain this motion.

 Contrary to what you might expect, a solid steel ball can float on
water due to the surface tension effect. Determine the maximum
diameter of a steel ball that would float on water at 20°C, contact
angles is equal to cero degrees ( = 0o). What would your answer be
for an aluminum ball? Take the densities of steel and aluminum
balls to be 7800 kg/m3 and 2700 kg/m3, respectively. Surface
tension () = 0.07286 N/m.
