PHY 111 Lesson 15 Fluid Mechanics Review

Match the best choices. Play the game more than once to see all the terms.

AB
DensityThe ratio of mass divided by volume
PressureForce per unit area.
BuoyancyUpward pressure exerted by a fluid in which a body is immersed.
Archimedes principleAn object submerged in a fluid (partially or entirely) is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
Bernoulli principleFluid velocity is high implies pressure is low and vice versa.
Pascal's principleExternal pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid
Density unitSI: Kg/m^3
Pressure unitSI: 1 N/m^2 = 1Pascal.
Laminar flowSmooth flow of fluid along streamlines
Turbulent flowFluid flow is not smooth. Often characterized as whirlpools or eddies.
Equation of continuityA1v1= A2v2 (A is cross section area of the fluid and v is the fluid velocity)
Bernoulli equationP + rho v^2 + rho gy = Constant (rho = density)
