2.  What is a fluid?  Fluid – any material than can flow and that takes the shape of its container.  What are some examples?

3.  What types of pressure are there? › Air pressure › Pressure – the amount of force exerted on a given area. Pressure = force/area SI unit for pressure is Pascal.

4.  Pressure = force/area  The force of air in a balloon is 2N and the area of the balloon is 2m 2. What is the pressure exerting on the inside of the balloon?

5.  The air in the bubble exerts pressure evenly in every direction, so the bubble expands in every direction.

6.  The weight of the atmosphere due to gravity pulling it to the earth.  Atmosphere is made up of: Nitrogen, Oxygen, and other gases.  The atmosphere exerts a pressure of approximately 101,300 N on every square meter.  Also known as 101,300 Pa

7. So that means: 10N (the weight of pineapple) is applied on every square centimeter (roughly the area of the tip of your little finger) of your body. Why doesn’t this hurt? Because the fluids inside your body also exert pressure.

8.  Depending on your elevation atmospheric pressure changes.  On top of Mount Everest the atmospheric pressure is 33,000 PA.  The pressure increases as the atmosphere gets “deeper.”

9.  If you travel to higher or lower points in the atmosphere the fluids in your body have to adjust to maintain equal pressure.  Just like when your ears “pop” in an airplane.  Small pockets of air behind your eardrums contract or expand as atmospheric pressure increases or decreases.  “pop” occurs when air is released due to these pressure changes.

11. 1. How do particles in a fluid exert pressure on a container? 2. Why are you not crushed by atmospheric pressure? 3. Explain why dams on deep lakes should be thicker at the bottom than near the top.

12.  Water pressure increases with depth because of gravity.  The greater a diver goes in water the greater the pressure becomes because more water above the diver is being pulled by Earth’s gravitational force.

14. Is the amount of matter in a certain volume. Water is more dense than air. Water exerts more pressure than air. If you climb up a tree 10 meters and then you dive 10 meters underwater. Where would you have the greater pressure exerted on you?

15.  When drinking through a straw: › You remove the air from the straw and reduce the pressure in the straw. What you are drinking has the greater pressure so the liquid moves up the straw. The outside pressure forces the liquid up the straw along with the suction you are creating in the straw.

16.  When breathing: › When you inhale a muscle increases the space in your chest, giving your lungs room to expand. This expansion lowers the pressure in your lungs so that it becomes lower than the outside air pressure. › Air then flows into your lungs from higher pressure to lower pressure.

17.  Blaise Pascal, 17 th century French scientist.  Pascal’s Principle – a change in pressure at any point in an enclosed fluid will be transmitted equally to all parts of that fluid.

18.  Hydraulic – devices that use liquids to transmit pressure from one point to another.  Ex. Hydraulic Brakes:  Driver’s foot exerts pressure on a cylinder of liquid. Pascal’s principle tells you that this pressure is transmitted equally to all parts of the liquid-filled brake system.  This liquid presses a brake pad against each wheel, and friction brings the car to a stop.

19. 1. Explain how atmospheric pressure helps you drin k through a straw. 2. What does Pascal’s principle state? 3. When you squeeze a balloon, where is the pressure inside the balloon increased the most? Explain your answer in terms of Pascal’s principle.

21.  Buoyant force- The upward force that fluids exert on all matter.

22.  Water exerts fluid pressure on all sides of an object.  The side pressures are equal thus they cancel each other out.  The only fluid pressures affecting the object are at the top and bottom. The bottom is greater because pressure increases with depth. Therefore the water places an upward force on the object known as buoyant force.

23.  Archimedes a Greek mathematician discovered how to determine buoyant force.  Archimedes Principle- states that the buoyant force on an object in a fluid is an upward force equal to the weight of the volume of fluid the object displaces  Displace= take the place of

24.  Archimedes Principle.flv Archimedes Principle.flv  The weight of an object has nothing to do with the buoyant force. Only the weight of the displaced fluid determines the buoyant force of an object.

25.  An object will sink if it has a weight greater than the weight of the fluid that is displaced.  An object will sink if its weight is greater than the buoyant force acting on it.  An object floats when it displaces a volume of fluid that has a weight equal to the objects weight.  An object will float if the buoyant force of the object is equal to the objects weight.

26.  Sinking ( Rock) The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced water. The rocks weighs more than the displaced water therefore it sinks.  Floating- The fish weighs 12 N It displaces a volume of water that has a weight of 12N Therefore the fish floats

27.  Buoying up- When the buoyant force on an object is greater than the objects weight the object is buoyed up ( pushed up) out of the water until what's left underwater displaced an amount of water that equals the objects entire weight.

28.  Density= Mass per unit volume.  The rock sunk because it was more dense than water. The duck floats because it is less dense than water. The fish is equal to the density of water.

29.  Why does the rubber duck float on water but not in the air?  Because it is less dense than water but not less dense than air

30.  One substance that is less dense than air is helium. Helium displaces a volume of air that is much heavier than itself so it floats.

31.  Density =Mass  Volume  What is the density of a 20 cm sample of liquid with a mass of 25g?  1.25g  A 546 g fish displaces 420 cm of water. What is the density of the fish?  1.3g

32.  Scan pic page 71  Steel is almost 8 times more dense than water.

33.  The secret is the shape of the ship.  The amount of steel in the block is the same as the ship. But the hollow shape increases the volume of he ship.  Because density is mass per volume an increase in the ship’s volume leads to a decrease in the density.  Most ships are built to displace more water than necessary in order to hold extra people and cargo.
