Introduction: Fluids
Solid Liquid
• Fixed shape, fixed size
• does not readily change in shape or volume when force is applied
• does not maintain fixed shape (take the shape of its container)
• also not readily compressible
(volume can change with large force)
Gas
• neither fixed shape nor fixed volume (it’s expand to its container)
• compressible

Introduction: Fluids
Fluid’s definition:
“ a substance which has

Every matter occupies space around it
Space is called “ Volume (m 3 ) ”
Density
6
Density
Two objects made of the same material have the same density even though they may have different masses and different volumes .
That’s because the ratio of mass to volume is the same for both objects

Iron has more mass per unit volume
The density ρ of a substance is its mass per unit volume :
m v
The SI unit for density is kg/m 3 . Density is also sometimes given in g/cm 3 .
Density is a characteristic property of any pure substance.

Density
Object made of a particular pure substance, such as gold can have any size or mass, but the density will the same for each.

Sometimes, we use the concept of density to write mass: m

Buoyant force
32
Buoyant force
Object submerged in a fluid appear to weigh less when its outside the fluid.
For e.g.: a large rock that you would have difficulty lifting off the ground can often be easily lifted from the bottom of a stream.
When its break through the surface of the water, suddenly its seems to be heavier.
This is the e.g. of the buoyant force .
33
Buoyant force
The buoyant force is an upward force exerted by the fluid .
34
The BF occurs because the pressure in a fluid increases with depth .
Thus, the upward pressure on the bottom surface of a submerged object is greater than the downward pressure on its top surface.

“ The buoyant force on an object immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by that object.”
40
Archimedes Principle
“ Fluid displaced ” mean a volume of the fluid equal to submerged volume of the object ( or that part of the
object that is submerged )
For e.g.: if the object is placed in a glass or tube initially filled to the brim with water, the water that flows over the top represents the water displaced by the object.

Pascal’s Principle
60
Pascal’s Principle
In fact that the pressure in a fluid depends on depth and the atmospheric pressure P₀, any increase in pressure at the surface must be transmitted to every other points in fluid.
Pascal’s principle:
“If an external pressure is applied to a confined fluid, the pressure at every point within the fluid increases by
that amount”.
A change in pressure at any point in an enclosed fluid is transmitted equally throughout the fluid.
61
Pascal’s Principle
