volume:

 specific gravity
r fluid
Units are kg/m3 (SI) or g/cm3 (cgs)
 1 g/cm3 = 1000 kg/m3

Variation of Pressure
with Depth
If a fluid is at rest in a container, all
portions of the fluid must be in static
equilibrium
 All points at the same depth must be at
the same pressure


Otherwise, the fluid would not be in
equilibrium (Think weather)
Pressure and
Depth

Archimedes'
Principle

Any object completely or
partially submerged in a fluid is
buoyed up by a force whose
magnitude is equal to the
weight of the fluid displaced by
the object.
Buoyant Force

The upward force is
called the buoyant
force

The physical cause
of the buoyant force
is the pressure
difference between
the top and the
bottom of the object
Archimedes’ Principle:
Totally Submerged Object
The upward buoyant force is
B=ρfluidVobjg
 The downward gravitational force is
w=mg=ρobjVobjg
 The net force is B-w=(ρfluid-ρobj)gVobj

Totally Submerged
Object
The object is less
dense than the fluid
 The object
experiences a net
upward force

Totally Submerged
Object
The object is more
dense than the fluid
 The net force is
downward
 The object
accelerates
downward

Archimedes’ Principle:
Floating Object
Fbuoyancy = rg(Volume displaced)
 The object is in static equilibrium.
 The upward buoyant force is balanced by the
downward force of gravity.
 Volume of the fluid displaced corresponds to
the volume of the object beneath the fluid
level.


332 meters long
How many cubic
meters are
displaced?
Got milk?

Ship weighs 810 x 106 N = B
B=rfluidgVdisp
Density of water = 1000
Vdisp=Wship/rwaterg
 Volume of water displaced is
 B=(810 x 106 )=Vdisp x (1000 x 9.8)

 Vdisp
kg/m3
= 82600 cubic meters or
 22 million gallons!
Pascal’s Principle

A change in pressure applied to an
enclosed fluid is transmitted undimished
to every point of the fluid and to the
walls of the container.
Pascal’s Principle

The hydraulic press is
an important application
of Pascal’s Principle

Worksheet #3a
Fluids in Motion:
Streamline Flow

Streamline flow



every particle that passes a particular point moves
exactly along the smooth path followed by
particles that passed the point earlier
also called laminar flow
Streamline is the path


different streamlines cannot cross each other
the streamline at any point coincides with the
direction of fluid velocity at that point
Characteristics of an
Ideal Fluid

The fluid is nonviscous


The fluid is incompressible


Its density is constant
The fluid is steady


There is no internal friction between adjacent
layers
Its velocity, density and pressure do not change in
time
The fluid moves without turbulence

No eddy currents are present
Equation of
Continuity

A1v1 = A2v2

The product of the
cross-sectional area of a
pipe and the fluid speed
is a constant


Speed is high where the
pipe is narrow and speed
is low where the pipe has
a large diameter
Av is called the flow
rate – what are its
units?
