Chapter 13 Defining a Fluid

Section 1 Fluid Pressure

A fluid is a nonsolid state of matter in which the atoms or molecules are free to move past each other, as in a gas or a liquid. Both liquids and gases are considered fluids because they can flow and change shape.
Liquids have a definite volume; gases do not.

Chapter 13 Pressure

Section 1 Fluid Pressure

Pressure is the magnitude of the force on a surface per unit area. F P A force pressure = area
Measured in units of N/m2

One N/m2 is equal to 1 Pascal (Pa)

Section 1 Fluid Pressure

Pressure in fluids
Pressure at any given depth in a fluid is constant and is exerted equally in all directions. Pressure is a scalar quantity no direction Pressure in a non-moving fluid is determined by type of fluid and the depth Pressure does not depend on volume, shape, or weight of the fluid

Section 1 Fluid Pressure

Air Pressure and the Atmosphere


Air is a fluid and will also exert pressure on objects in it. We are at the bottom of a body of fluid, the atmosphere, that reaches from the Earths surface to outer space Weight of a column of air at sea level is 14.7 pounds per square inch of area This is equivalent to 1.01x105Pa labeled Po Air pressure decreases with altitude as less air is above each square inch

Chapter 13 Air Pressure

Section 1 Fluid Pressure

Popping of ears when you go up in an elevator or fly in a plane is due to imbalance in pressure between the outside and internal body pressure Outside pressure changes more quickly than internal pressure Creates a pressure difference Inside of our bodies have pressure that balances the air pressure balanced forces result in net force of zero Need for decompression when diving

Transmitting Pressure in a Fluid


Fluid exerts pressure equally in all directions Amount of pressure depends on depth and type of fluid What happens if you add additional pressure to a fluid at one point in a closed system? Pressure added by applying a force over an area Pressure will increase equally throughout the fluid

Section 2 Forces and Pressure in Fluids

Pascals Principle
Pascals principle states that pressure applied to a fluid in a closed container is transmitted equally to every point of the fluid and to the walls of the container. Fluid pressure is not the same within a closed container but increases with depth Additional pressure added equally to existing pressures

Bernoullis Principle
As the speed of a fluid decreases, the pressure the fluid exerts increases Many applications Explains how airplanes fly upward force of lift is created by air moving faster over the top of a wing which has a longer side on top Explains how spray bottles work Basis for vacuum cleaners and pumps impeller blades move fluid faster to create a low pressure

Chapter 13 Buoyant Force

Section 3 Buoyancy

The upward force exerted on an object in a fluid whether partially immersed or totally immersed Acts in a direction opposite to gravity Results in an apparent loss of weight of an object in a fluid Water pressure increases with depth so the bottom of object has greater pressure hence force than the top of object Pressure on the sides cancel each other Imbalance of pressure creates upward force

Density and Buoyant Force


The concentration of matter of an object is called the mass density.
Mass density is measured as the mass per unit volume of a substance. m V mass mass density volume

Archimedes Principle
Archimedes principle describes the magnitude of a buoyant force.
Archimedes principle: Any object completely or partially submerged in a fluid experiences an upward buoyant force equal in magnitude to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. FB = Fg (displaced fluid) = mfg
magnitude of buoyant force = weight of fluid displaced

Density and Buoyant Force


For a floating object, the buoyant force equals the objects weight.
The apparent weight of a submerged object depends on the density of the object. For an object with density O submerged in a fluid of density f, the buoyant force FB obeys the following ratio: Fg (object ) O FB f
