Solids and Fluids
Chapter 9
Phases of Matter
Solid – definite shape and volume
Liquid – definite volume but assumes the
shape of its container
Gas – assumes the shape and volume of its
container.
Liquids and Gases are collectively referred to
as FLUIDS.
Fluid – A substance that can flow.
Fluid Pressure
Pressure = Force / Area
Units of [Newtons/m2] or [pounds/in2]
p= F / A to find pressure, use the
component of force normal to the surface area
Pressure is commonly measured in [Pascals] =
[Pa] = [N/m2]
Density
Density = Mass / Volume
Density is measured in [kg/m3] or [g/cm3]
Density of Water = 1 g/cm3 = 1000 kg/m3
Density is symbolized with ρ
Pressure and Depth
Water pressure increases with depth.
Water Pressure =
Water pressure at
height, h is
F/A
mg/A
(ρhA)g/A
ρgh [N/m2]
Water Pressure and Depth
Pressure of a liquid at
a depth of h is
p = po + ρgh
where po is the
pressure at the surface
of the liquid.
Water Pressure and Depth
po is pressure at the surface
Often surface pressure is air pressure, pa
Standard air pressure at sea level is
[1 atmosphere] = [1 atm] = [1.013 X 105
N/m2] = [101.3 kPa]
Scuba Diver Example
What is the total pressure on the back of
a scuba diver in a lake at a depth of 8.0
meters?
What is the force on the divers back due
to the water alone, taking the surface of
the back to be a rectangle 60.0 cm by
50.0 cm?
Pascal’s Principle
Pressure which is
applied to an
enclosed
incompressible fluid
is transmitted to
every point in the
fluid and to the walls
of the container.
Pascal’s Principle
Pressure applied to
an incompressible
fluid is transmitted
instantaneously
throughout the fluid.
Pressure is the same
throughout.
Pascal’s Principle
Hydraulic systems
make use of Pascal’s
Principle.
An applied force can
be multiplied and
made to lift a large
load.
(F/A) remains
constant
Example
A garage lift has input and lift (output)
pistons with diameters of 10cm and 30
cm. The lift is used to hold up a car with
a weight of 1.4 X 104 N.
a) what is the magnitude of the input
force on the piston?
b) what pressure is applied to the input
piston?
Archimedes Principle
A body immersed wholly or partially in a
fluid experiences a buoyant force equal
in magnitude to the weight of the volume
of fluid that is displaced.
Examples
A spherical helium filled balloon was a radius of
1.10m. Does the buoyant force on the balloon
depend on the density of 1) helium 2) air or 3)
the weight of the rubber skin?
Compute the magnitude of the buoyant force on
the balloon. ρair = 1.29 kg/m3 and ρHe = 0.18
kg/m3.
If the rubber skin of the balloon has mass of 1.2
kg, find the balloon’s initial acceleration when
released if it carries a load of 3.52 kg.
Fluid Flow
Conditions of molecules in a flowing fluid may be
unpredictable - difficult to quantify. Therefore it is
helpful to identify several conditions of an ideal
fluid:
Condition 1: Steady flow means that all particles
have the same velocity as they pass a given
point.
Condition 2: Irrotational flow means that a fluid
element has not angular velocity. (no whirlpools)
Condition 3: Nonviscous flow means viscosity is
negligible.
Condition 4: Incompressible flow means the fluid’s
density is constant.
Continuity of Fluid Flow
Consider fluid flowing in a tube with different
diameters…
Equation of Continuity
Mass of fluid flowing into the tube in a
given time must equal the mass flowing out
of the tube…
Δm1 = ρV1= ρA1Δx1 = ρA1v1Δt
Δm2 = ρV2= ρA2Δx2 = ρA2v2Δt
Since Δm1= Δm2, A1v1 = A2v2
Equation of Continuity: A1v1 = A2v2
Bernoulli’s Equation
Work – Energy Formula become
Bernoulli’s Equation:
Wnet = ΔKE + ΔU
p1 + ½ρv12 + ρgy1 = p2 + ½ρv22 + ρgy2
Bernoulli’s Equation
Special Cases
p1 + ½ρv12 + ρgy1 = p2 + ½ρv22 + ρgy2
p + ½ρv2 + ρgy = constant
If the fluid is at rest, then the formula becomes
the pressure depth relationship:
p2 – p1 = ρg(y2 – y1)
If y1 = y2, then p1 + ½ρv12 = p2 + ½ρv22 which
says if the velocity of a fluid increases, the
pressure it exerts decreases.
Examples
A cylindrical tank containing water has a
small hole punched in its side below the
water level, and water runs out. What is
the approximate initial flow rate of water out
of the tank?
