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
