Fluids, Chapter 9
? At ordinary temperature,matter exists in one of three states
?Solid - has a shape and forms a surface
?Liquid - has no shape but forms a surface
?Gas - has no shape and forms no surface
? What do we mean by,fluids”?
?Fluids are,substances that flow”….,substances that
take the shape of the container”
?Atoms and molecules are free to move.
?No long range correlation between positions.

? Any force exerted by a fluid is perpendicular to a surface of
contact,and is proportional to the area of that surface.
?Force (a vector) in a fluid can be expressed in terms of
pressure (a scalar) as:

? When the pressure is much less
than the bulk modulus of the fluid,
we treat the density as constant
independent of pressure:
incompressible fluid
? For an incompressible fluid,the
density is the same everywhere,
but the pressure is NOT!
Pressure vs,Depth
Incompressible Fluids (liquids)
? Consider an imaginary fluid volume (a cube,face area A)

? If the pressures were different,fluid would flow in the tube!
? However,if fluid did flow,then the system was NOT in equilibrium
since no equilibrium system will spontaneously leave equilibrium.
Pressure vs,Depth
? For a fluid in an open container
pressure same at a given depth
independent of the container p ( y )
y
? Fluid level is the same
everywhere in a connected
container,assuming no surface
forces
? Why is this so? Why does the
pressure below the surface
depend only on depth if it is in
equilibrium?
? Imagine a tube that would connect two regions at the same depth.

Pascal’s Principle
? So far we have discovered (using Newton’s Laws):
?Pressure depends on depth,?p = ?g?y
? Pascal’s Principle addresses how a change in pressure is
transmitted through a fluid.
Any change in the pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is
transmitted to every portion of the fluid and to the walls
of the containing vessel.
? Pascal’s Principle explains the working of hydraulic lifts
?i.e,the application of a small force at one place can result
in the creation of a large force in another.
?Does this,hydraulic lever” violate conservation of energy?
?Certainly hope not.,Let’s calculate.
Physics 121,Lecture 20,Pg 9
Pascal’s Principle
? Consider the system shown:
?A downward force F1 is applied
to the piston of area A1.
?This force is transmitted through
the liquid to create an upward
force F2.
?Pascal’s Principle says that
increased pressure from F1
(F1/A1) is transmitted throughout
the liquid.

Hydraulics
? Consider the systems shown to the right.
?In each case,a block of mass M is
placed on the piston of the large
cylinder,resulting in a difference dI in
the liquid levels.

? At what depth is the water pressure two atmospheres?
It is one atmosphere at the surface,What is the
pressure at the bottom of the deepest oceanic trench
(about 104 meters)?
P2 = P1 + ?gd
2.02?105 Pa = 1.01?105 Pa
+ 103 kg/m3*9.8m/s2*d
d = 10.3 m
P2 = 1.01?105 Pa + 103 kg/m3*9.8m/s2*104 m
= 9.81?107 Pa = 971 Atm
Solution:
d is the depth.
The pressure increases one
atmosphere for every 10m.
This assumes that water is
incompressible.
For d = 104 m:
Example Problems (1)
Physics 121,Lecture 20,Pg 13
? Two masses rest on two pistons in a U-shaped tube of
water,as shown,If M1 = 3 kg and M2 = 4.5 kg,what is
the height difference,h? The area of piston 1 is A1 =
200 cm2,and the area of piston 2 is A2 = 100 cm2.
Example Problems (2)
Solution:
M1
M2h
The pressure difference due to the two
masses must be balanced by the water
pressure due to h.
Note that g does not appear in the
answer.
M1g/A1 + ?gh = M2g/A2
h = (M2/A2-M1/A1)/?

Archimedes’ Principle
? Suppose we weigh an object in air (1) and in water (2).
?How do these weights compare?
W2?W1
W1 < W2 W1 = W2 W1 > W2
?Why?
? Since the pressure at the bottom of
the object is greater than that at the
top of the object,the water exerts a
net upward force,the buoyant force,
on the object.
Physics 121,Lecture 20,Pg 17
? The buoyant force is equal to the difference in the
pressures times the area.

? The buoyant force is equal to the weight
of the liquid that is displaced.
? If the buoyant force is larger than the
weight of the object,it will float; otherwise
it will sink.

More Fun With Buoyancy
? Two cups are filled to the same level with
water,One of the two cups has plastic
balls floating in it,
?Which cup weighs more?
?Archimedes principle tells us that the cups weigh the
same.
?Each plastic ball displaces an amount of water that is
exactly equal to its own weight.

Even More Fun With Buoyancy
? A plastic ball floats in a cup of water with
half of its volume submerged,Next some
oil (?oil < ?ball < ?water) is slowly added to
the container until it just covers the ball,
?Relative to the water level,the ball will,water
(A) move up (B) move down (C) stay in same place
?For oil to cover the ball,the ball must have,displaced”
some oil.
?Therefore,the buoyant force on the ball increases.
?Therefore,the ball moves up (relative to the water).
?Note that initially we assumed the buoyant force of the air
on the ball was negligible (it is!); the buoyant force of the
oil is not.
Physics 121,Lecture 20,Pg 23
Fluids in Motion
? Up to now we have described fluids in terms of
their static properties:
?density ?
?pressure p
? To describe fluid motion,we need something that
can describe flow:
?velocity v
? There are different kinds of fluid flow of varying complexity
? non-steady / steady
? compressible / incompressible
? rotational / irrotational
? viscous / ideal
Physics 121,Lecture 20,Pg 24
? Simplest situation,consider
ideal fluid moving with steady
flow - velocity at each point in
the flow is constant in time
? In this case,fluid moves on
streamlines

Ideal Fluids
? Fluid dynamics is very complicated in general (turbulence,
vortices,etc.)
? Consider the simplest case first,the Ideal Fluid
?no,viscosity” - no flow resistance (no internal friction)
?incompressible - density constant in space and time
Physics 121,Lecture 20,Pg 25
? Flow obeys continuity equation
? volume flow rate Q = A·v is constant along flow
tube.
? follows from mass conservation if flow is
incompressible.
