Abstract: Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid to flow due to internal friction on the layers of the fluid. An example of such fluid is engine oil which happens to be viscous and thus serves as a lubricant for the moving parts of automobile engines to work efficiently. However, this lubrication is only possible because automobile engines generate heat that reduces viscosity and allows the smooth flow of oil through engine parts. So, we conducted an experiment to determine the effect of temperature on the viscosity of engine oil A, B, C, D and E. Thereafter, we used MATLAB programming to analyze and optimize the viscosity of these fluids. Results show that at the temperature range of (35 – 95)°C, the viscosity of SAE20W-50W (A, B, C, D and E) engine oil is maximum at (0.5079, 0.4848, 0.4971, 0.4980, and 0.4846) kg/ms respectively and minimum at (0.2793, 0.2934, 0.2804, 0.2682 and 0.2806) kg/ms respectively. Therefore, increase in temperature decreases the viscosity and cooling rate of engine oils to provide a favorable lubrication. Conclusively, we established that engine oils B, C and E are more preferable for automobile users in both industries and households.

Abstract: The concept underlying the use of X-rays in scientific treatments is called radiation scattering, which incorporates the scattering of photons, neurons, or both. When carried out in scientific procedures, X-rays interact with the virtual shells of atoms in solids with the useful resource of the usage of scattering, depending on the X-form rays and the radiation period. Soaking up and emitting electrons. Nuclei are incredibly heavy a very good manner to be detected with the useful resource of the usage of X-ray. Bragged that there have been conditions for a sharp pinnacle in scattered radiation intensity. Placing a patient's body thing with inside the front of an X-ray technician, who then lighting it with short bursts of radiation to make an image for scientific use X-ray the only versions amongst X-rays and ordinary moderate are their multiplied electricity and comparable wave. X-rays are applied in medicine for scientific analysis. Dentists use them to discover complications, cavities and impacted tooth. Soft body tissues are apparent to the waves. Bones and tooth block the rays and show up as white on the black background. We find out the use of x-ray as a treatment is referred to as radiation treatment and in big component used for the management (which incorporates palliation) of cancer. It requires higher radiation energies than for imaging a lone.
