Fluid
- Substances which can flow and conform to the shape of their contaner
- Liquids AND gases
- Difference is that gases are compressible and liquids are incompressible.
Density
ρ = m/V

Units: kg/cm³ or kg/m³
Density for Water (3)
- 1000 kg/m³
- 1g/cm³
- 1kg/L
Specific Gravity
SG = ρ(object)/ρ(water)

- Unitless and compares how dense something is compared to water.
1 atm is equal to...
101.3 kPa
Pressure
F = P⟘ / A

Units: N/m² or Pa
Pa is equal to...
N/m²
Buoyant Force
- Fb = ρ * Vs * g

Where ρ = of fluid
Vs = volume submerged

- Magnitude of the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object
Apparent Weight
Wapp = Wtrue - Fb
Archimede's Principle in Detail
(Equation)
Vsub/V = ρobj/ρfluid

- If ρobj < ρfluid, the object will float.
- If ρobj = ρfluid, hovers in equilibrium completely submerged in the fluid.
Pascal's Principle
F₂ = F₁ * A₂/A₁

- Pressure increases everywhere in a fluid, not just where we apply the force. Evenly distributed to boot!
- Biggest application is to hydraulics.
- Like most machines, the input force is less than the output force, and we need to increase the distance lots to move a little.
Absolute Pressure
Ptotal = Patm + Pgauge
Gauge Pressure
Pgauge = ρfluid * g * h

- Pressure due ONLY to a fluid.
Flow Rate
F = A * v

Units: m³/s
Continuity Principle
A1 * V1 = A2 * V2

- This is saying that flow is inversely proportional to the area (or r²)
- This principle plays off the fact that if the fluid is incompressible (and it is) then the flow rate must be equal everywhere.
- In order to compensate for a changing A, the v will change too.
- Decrease A, V increases.
Ideal Fluids
- Incompressible
- Viscosity negligible
- Flow is laminar (smooth)
- Flow is steady (equal)
Viscosity
- Force of cohesion between molecules
- Resistance to flow
- Maple syrup viscosity > water viscosity
Bernoulli's Equation
P₁ + ½ρv₁ + ρgy = P₂ + ½ρv₂ ρgy₂

- Looking at the pressure at two different locations on a moving fluid
Efflux Speed
v = √(2gh)
Bernoulli Effect
Pressure is lower where flow speed is greater
Tension
Stretching
Compression
Squeezing
Shear
Bending
Stress (Equation)
S = F/A

Units: N/m² or a Pa
Strain
ΔL/Lₒ or X/Lₒ

- Change in length of object compared to the original
Hooke's Law for Solids
- Stress causes a strain, and as long as the stress isn't too large to cause a permanent deformity, they are ⟘
Hooke's Law for Stress
Stress = modulus * strain
Sheer Strain
X = FLₒ/AG

Where G = Shear Modulus
Tensile/Compression Strain
ΔL = FLₒ/EA
