Statement 1: In μ_a= τ/γ = Kγ(n-1) , n = consistency index and K is the flow behaviour index. Statement 2: n= 1 for Newtonian fluids, n<1 for dilatant fluids and n>1 for pseudo plastic fluids.

Statement 1: In μ_a= τ/γ = Kγ(n-1) , n = consistency index and K is the flow behaviour index. Statement 2: n= 1 for Newtonian fluids, n<1 for dilatant fluids and n>1 for pseudo plastic fluids. Correct Answer False, False

Both the statements are false. K = consistency index and n is the flow behaviour index. n is greater than 1 for dilatant fluids and n is less than 1 for pseudo plastic fluids.

Statement 1: For non-Newtonian fluids, another term called apparent viscosity is used as their viscosity changes with the change in the shear rate. Statement 2: For non-Newtonian fluids, between the transition region, the power number for non-Newtonian fluids is slightly higher than that for Newtonian fluids.
Focusing on plastic pollution, the June issue of the National Geographic magazine created quite a buzz on social media, contrary to expectations after the cover featured a plastic bag submerged in an ocean with a ’Planet or Plastic?’ text on it. Ironically, the magazine itself was wrapped in a double layer of plastic. Which of the following options can be the reason for the magazine to go viral on the internet as inferred from the statements? I. It highlighted the amount of single-use plastic that enters in the world’s oceans which is a major environmental concern these days. II. National Geographic kicked off its ‘Planet or Plastic’ campaign, the magazine’s multiyear effort to raise awareness about the global plastic trash crisis through the cover. III. The magazine about ocean plastic pollution came wrapped in a plastic bag inside another plastic bag. IV. Because they realized the major flaw and announced that the magazine will no longer be shipped to readers in a plastic bag but will be sent out in a paper envelope instead.
Statement 1: Considering the equation, μ_a= τ/γ = Kγ(n-1) , for pseudo plastic fluids, n<1 and they’re called Shear thinning liquids and dilatant fluids are called Shear thickening liquids as n>1. Statement 2: Cooked starch solution is a Shear thinning liquid and dairy cream is a Shear thickening liquid.
Statement 1: Apparent viscosity μ_a is related to shear stress (τ) and shear strain (γ) as μ_a= τ/γ. Statement 2: The equation τ=Kγn becomes μ_a= τ/γ = Kγ(n-1) .
Statement 1: Scraping improves heat transfer co-efficient by 5 times in case of non-Newtonian fluids. Statement 2: In food industry, major physical changes to food items when they’re processed, take place like transformation from Newtonian to Non-Newtonian fluids. Hence, scraped surface heat exchangers are very beneficial.
Select from the following non - Newtonian fluids in which the rate of shear deformation is a function of both shear stress and time - (1) Dilatant liquid (2) Bingham plastic liquid (3) Pseudoplastic liquid (4) Thixotropic liquid (5) Rheopectic liquid
In the following question, the first and the last part of the sentence/passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/passage is split into four parts and named P, Q, R, S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/passage and find out which of the four combinations is correct. S1. Plastic bags are a major cause of environmental pollution. P. Many countries around the globe have either ban the plastic bag or Levi tax on it. Q. Plastic as a substance is non-biodegradable and thus plastic bags remain in the environment for hundreds of years polluting it immensely. R. However, the problem hasn’t been solved completely because the implementation of these measures hasn’t been as successful. S. It has become very essential to ban plastic bags before they ruin our planet completely. S6. Research shows that waste plastic bags have been a major reason for untimely animal deaths.
Statement 1: Sieder-Tate and Dittus-boelter equations imply only to laminar flow conditions. Statement 2: Under laminar conditions, the same equation applies both to Newtonian and Non-Newtonian fluids.
Read the given passage and answer the question that follows. Plastic is extremely harmful for the earth and the environment. Plastic that we use eventually ends up in landfills and it takes hundreds of years to biodegrade. This plastic stays on the earth and pollutes land and oceans. There is a dire need to eliminate the use of plastic and to reduce and recycle the plastic that already exists in the landfills. Which of the following argument could be made from the above passage?
The following sentences form a paragraph.They are numbered as P, Q, R and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order.

Unfortunately, it is not free of this menace — plastic waste can be seen littered everywhere in this pristine evergreen stretch that is host to numerous species of wildlife.  Q. In order to have a plastic-free world, we have to unlearn the habit of ‘use and throw’. I am working in a biodiversity hotspot situated in the Western Ghats in Kerala.  R. Despite boards that say ‘Littering is prohibited’, visitors still bring plastic with them and leave behind a carpet of waste.  Plastic is slowly choking the environment and we need to stop this. S. Plastic bottles and covers can be seen in the crystal clear waters of forest streams even deep in the forests.
