Which of the following statement is FALSE?
An example of a shear thickening fluid is blood. This application is highly favored within human body, as it allows the
viscosity of blood to increase with increased shear strain rate
Newton's law of viscosity states that the shear stress between adjacent fluid layers is proportional to the negative
value of the velocity gradient between the two layers.
All gases and most simple liquids, including liquid metals and other high-temperature melts, obey Newton's law of
viscosity and are accordingly called Newtonian fluids.
Corn starch dissolved in water is a common example of a dilatant fluid. When stirred slowly it looks milky, when stirred
vigorously it feels like a very viscous liquid.
E) None of the Choices
Given the following scene on the stage
Player #1

- Shown in the image is a vertical section of a 66 block grid of a gold mine deposit. Each block is identified with a number and a gold (Au) grade in g/t. As shown, most blocks contain non- valuable or zero ore-grade (G=0). However, the ore-grade of highlighted block #17 is G2= 1.4 g/t, and similarly the ore grades of blocks #28, #39, #50 and #61 are in turn: G3 = 1.2, G4 = 2.3, G5 = 2.8, and G6 = 2.9 g/t.
