Fluids

2. Fluids Fluids (Ch. 6) – substances that can flow (gases, liquids)
Fluids conform with the boundaries of any container in which they are placed
Fluids lack orderly long-range arrangement of atoms and molecules they consist of
Fluids can be compressible and incompressible

3. Density and pressure Density SI unit of density: kg/m3
Blaise Pascal
( )
Density and pressure
Density
SI unit of density: kg/m3
Pressure (cf. Ch. 12)
SI unit of pressure: N/m2 = Pa (pascal)
Pressure is a scalar – at a given point in a fluid the measured force is the same in all directions
For a uniform force on a flat area

4. Fluids at rest
For a fluid at rest (static equilibrium) the pressure is called hydrostatic
For a horizontal-base cylindrical water sample in a container

5. Fluids at rest
The hydrostatic pressure at a point in a fluid depends on the depth of that point but not on any horizontal dimension of the fluid or its container
Difference between an absolute pressure and an atmospheric pressure is called the gauge pressure

7. Measuring pressure
Mercury barometer
Open-tube manometer

8. Pascal’s principle
Pascal’s principle: A change in the pressure applied to an enclosed incompressible fluid is transmitted undiminished to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of its container
Hydraulic lever
With a hydraulic lever, a given force applied over a given distance can be transformed to a greater force applied over a smaller distance

9. Archimedes’ principle
of Syracuse
( BCE)
Archimedes’ principle
Buoyant force:
For imaginary void in a fluid
p at the bottom > p at the top
Archimedes’ principle: when a body is submerged in a fluid, a buoyant force from the surrounding fluid acts on the body. The force is directed upward and has a magnitude equal to the weight of the fluid that has been displaced by the body

10. Archimedes’ principle
Sinking:
Floating:
Apparent weight:
If the object is floating at the surface of a fluid, the magnitude of the buoyant force (equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the body) is equal to the magnitude of the gravitational force on the body

Problem 38

12. Motion of ideal fluids Flow of an ideal fluid:
Steady (laminar) – the velocity of the moving fluid at any fixed point does not change with time (either in magnitude or direction)
Incompressible – density is constant and uniform
Nonviscous – the fluid experiences no drag force
Irrotational – in this flow the test body will not rotate about its center of mass

13. Equation of continuity Equation of continuity
For a steady flow of an ideal fluid through a tube with varying cross-section
