Visit: www.layingthefoundation.org Fluids What I Absolutely Have to Know to Survive the AP* Exam The study of fluids is separated into two distinct parts: hydrostatics (fluids at rest) and hydrodynamics (fluids in motion). The static pressure due to an incompressible fluid depends primarily upon the depth of the fluid. Pascal’s principle states that the pressure exerted at one location in a confined fluid is transmitted undiminished throughout the fluid. Archimedes principle states that the buoyant force acting on an object in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. As a fluid flows through a pipe, the flow rate through the cross sectional area is the same at any point in the pipe. Bernoulli’s equation relates static pressure of a fluid to its dynamic (moving) pressure. Key Formulas and Relationships Volume: V = (length * width * height) = lwh Unit: m3 Density: ρ = m V Unit: kg/m3 Note: Density of water is 1000 kg/m3 Pressure: P = F A Unit: N/m2 = 1 Pascal = 1 Pa Note: 1 atmosphere of pressure is approximately equal to 1× 105 Pa Gauge Pressure: Pgauge = ρ gh Absolute Pressure: Pabsolute = P0 + Pgauge = P0 + ρ gh Pascal’s Principal: F1 F2 = A1 A2 Buoyant Force: FBuoy = ρVg = Weight of Displaced Fluid Unit: N Volume Flow Rate: υ = Av Unit: m3/s Continuity Equation: v1 A1 = v2 A2 Bernoulli’s Equation: P + ρ gy + 1 2 ρ v = constant 2 ® Copyright © 2009 Laying the Foundation , Inc., Dallas, TX. All rights reserved. Visit: www.layingthefoundation.org Fluids Important Concepts • Pressure: o Pressure is not a force. o Pressures from fluids always generate forces that are perpendicular to the surface of whatever the fluid is in contact with. • Static Pressure in a Fluid: Remember from our study of forces and Newton’s Laws that an object at rest must be in equilibrium. Consider the dot pictured in the container of fluid to the right. For the dot to be in equilibrium all the forces on it must cancel out. The gravitational force pulls the dot down and must be canceled by a force pushing upward on the dot. Fupward on the dot = mg downward on the dot mg F m v PA = ρ gV and V=Area × Height PA=ρ gAh P=ρ gh F = PA and ρ = The static pressure due to the fluid depends upon the depth of the fluid, the density of the fluid, and the acceleration due to gravity. Note that the area does not make any difference! h The pressure is the same at the bottom of both of the containers pictured above because they have the same depth of fluid. This means that at the same vertical location in a continuous fluid, the pressure is always the same. ® Copyright © 2009 Laying the Foundation , Inc., Dallas, TX. All rights reserved. Visit: www.layingthefoundation.org Fluids Consider the “U” shaped tube filled with a fluid and fitted with a piston pictured below. Along the horizontal line the pressure in the fluid is the same: P = ρ gh1 piston fluid original height h1 horizontal line Now the piston is pushed downward with a force toward the horizontal line thus moving the fluid higher in the right hand side of the “U” shaped tube. This force increases the pressure in the fluid at the horizontal line to a new value: P = ρ gh2 piston Force fluid new height h2 horizontal line ® Copyright © 2009 Laying the Foundation , Inc., Dallas, TX. All rights reserved. Visit: www.layingthefoundation.org Fluids o Absolute Pressure and Gauge Pressure If there is anything on top of the fluid itself, the pressure in the fluid would need to be greater to maintain equilibrium. Mass and atmosphere atmosphere Example 1) The atmosphere might be pushing down on the fluid from above. In this case the pressure in the fluid would be: P = Patmosphere + ρ gh Example 2) The atmosphere pushes down from above and a mass is positioned on top of a piston above the fluid. In this case the pressure in the fluid would be: P = Patmosphere + Pdue to mass + ρ gh P = Patmosphere + mg + ρ gh Apiston To avoid as much confusion as possible, two terms have been developed to describe the static pressure in a fluid: Absolute Pressure and Gauge Pressure. Gauge Pressure is the pressure caused only by the fluid itself: Pgauge = ρ gh Absolute Pressure is the pressure caused by the fluid (ρgh) and anything on top of the fluid, such as the atmosphere and any mass or piston (P0): Pabsolute = P0 + Pgauge = P0 + ρ gh ® Copyright © 2009 Laying the Foundation , Inc., Dallas, TX. All rights reserved. Visit: www.layingthefoundation.org Fluids • In a confined fluid, a pressure exerted at one location is transmitted to all parts of the fluid. This is called Pascal’s Principle. P1 = P2 F1 F2 = A1 A2 F2 F1 A2 A1 Pascal’s Principle is utilized in both hydraulic (liquid) and pneumatic (gas) devices where a small force is used to push the fluid through a smaller cylinder into a larger area cylinder where the force ⎛A ⎞ is multiplied by a factor, the ratio of the cross sectional areas ⎜ 2 ⎟ . ⎝ A1 ⎠ Note that the force is amplified, but the distances through which the cylinders move are not the same. The large cylinder moves only a short distance, whereas the small cylinder moves a greater distance. The work output of a Pascal’s Principle device will equal the work input if there is no friction. ® Copyright © 2009 Laying the Foundation , Inc., Dallas, TX. All rights reserved. Visit: www.layingthefoundation.org Fluids • Objects submerged in a fluid will receive a greater fluid pressure on the bottom than on the top. This occurs because the bottom of the object is deeper in the fluid. Downward Pressure Pbottom > Ptop ρ ghbottom > ρ ghtop hbottom > htop This difference in pressure produces a buoyant force that is directed upward and is opposite the force of gravitational attraction. Upward Pressure The equation for buoyant force is: FBuoy = ρ fluidVdisplaced fluid g The density in the equation is for the fluid and the volume is for the amount of fluid displaced by the object in the fluid. Note that ρ fluidVdisplaced fluid is the same as the mass ( m = ρV ) of the displaced fluid. The buoyant force does not depend upon the weight or the shape of the submerged object, but the weight of the displaced fluid. This was first discovered by Archimedes. Archimedes Principle: The buoyant force will equal the weight of the fluid that is displaced by the object. FBuoy = ρ fluidVdisplaced fluid g = mdisplaced fluid g = Weight of Displaced Fluid FBuoy mg When an object floats, the weight of the object is equal to the buoyant force (weight of displaced fluid). The volume of the object is not necessarily equal to the volume of the displaced fluid, however. See the figure above. ® Copyright © 2009 Laying the Foundation , Inc., Dallas, TX. All rights reserved. Visit: www.layingthefoundation.org Fluids FBuoy mg When an object sinks, the weight of the object is greater than the buoyant force (weight of displaced fluid). Hence, the volume of the object will equal the volume of the displaced fluid as per the figure above. • The continuity equation states that the volume of an incompressible fluid entering one part of a flow tube must be equal to the volume leaving downstream. v1 A1 = v2 A2 (Note that the product of velocity and the cross sectional area of the flow tube is the volume flow rate of the fluid in units of m3/s. The volume flow rate remains constant throughout all parts of the flow tube.) A1 A2 v2 v1 The important consequence of the continuity equation is that the velocity of the fluid is slower in wider parts of the flow tube and faster in narrower parts of the flow tube. ® Copyright © 2009 Laying the Foundation , Inc., Dallas, TX.

Simply identify two points on a streamline and equate them using Bernoulli’s equation.) 1 2 Example 1) Consider the flow tube above. Points 1 and 2 are both centered in the middle of the flow tube. Bernoulli’s equation tells us: P1 + ρ gy1 + 1 2 1 ρ v1 = P2 + ρ gy2 + ρ v22 2 2 The vertical location, densities of the fluid, and “g” at points 1 and 2 are the same. Thus, they cancel each other out on both sides of the equation. 1 2 1 ρ v1 = P2 + ρ gy2 + ρ v22 2 2 y1 = y2 thus ρ gy1 = ρ gy2 P1 + ρ gy1 + P1 + 1 2 1 ρ v1 = P2 + ρ v22 2 2 The Continuity equation tells us that the velocity of the fluid at point 2 must be greater than the velocity at point 1. This implies that the pressure in the fluid decreases as the speed of the fluid increases. ® Copyright © 2009 Laying the Foundation , Inc., Dallas, TX. All rights reserved.

(P + ρgy + ½ ρv2)at the top of the fluid = (P + ρgy + ½ ρv2)at the opening Since the external pressure is the same at the top of the fluid and at the opening (1 atm), the pressure can be canceled out. The velocity of the fluid at the top is very small and is assumed to be zero, Also, y = 0 at the opening.

(3 points max) The new fluid lands the same 0.25 m away from the container. From part b) we derived that vopening = 2 gy at the top of the fluid This equation is independent of the density of the fluid.
