There are many common dimensionless numbers used to describe different physical effects. Such dimensionless numbers are usually a ratio of specific properties, for example, the Reynolds number represents the ratio of inertial to viscous forces. Choose three of the following dimensionless numbers and describe what properties the ratio represents and the context in which these numbers are important: Froude Number, Euler Number, Mach Number, Weber Number, Nusselt Number, Prandtl Number.
