Chapter 13 Objectives
Describe and calculate the pressure exerted by a fluid. Identify appropriate SI units for measuring pressure. Describe the relationship between water depth and the pressure it exerts. Describe how forces from pressure are distributed at a given level in a fluid. Explain how altitude affects air 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.

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

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

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

Hydraulic Systems
The science of applying Pascals Principle Use pressurized fluid acting on pistons of different sizes to change a force Gives user a mechanical advantage Force out is greater than force in to system In a hydraulic system an increased output force is obtained by a constant fluid pressure acting on a larger output area

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

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

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
