Here is another example to practice on. Practice makes perfect! Use Jeffrey's equation to figure out the velocity of this lava flow. The viscosities we used in the previous question were actually pretty low for some lavas. Let's see if you can handle the numbers for higher lava viscosities. You'll probably have to use scientific notation for the speeds.
Slope angle 17 degrees
Viscosity 81289788019596 poise
Density 2.4 g/cm3 g 980 cm/s2
Flow thickness 5128.6 cm
Flow description A lava river 3 = broad and spread out in all directions, 4 = narrow channelized flows
