fluid study Flashcards
what is particle theory
all matter is made up of particles
do a positive scientific notation
did you actually
do a negative scientific notation
do it
how to calculate density
mass / volume = density
why isnt sand (eg) a fluid?
because it is made up of tiny solids that are small enough to fit into a container
whats aerodynamics?
the way objects move through air
why does a car with a spoiler have worse aerodynamics than without?
because the spoiler interrupts the movement of the circulating air
whats hydrodynamics?
how objects move through water
what’s scientific debit
the flow rate of a fluid
what’s viscosity
the way/ability of how a fluid flows
what’s large visco, give an example of a fluid
a fluid with a large force of particle attraction
what’s small visco, give an example of a fluid
a fluid with a small force of particle attraction
what’s a fluid
a form of matter that continuously flows under an applied shear stress, or external force.
what’s the Archimedes principal
when a weight is pushed through a fluid, and the weight pushed down is brought back up by the fluid.
what’s the weight pushed up called in the Archimedes principal
buoyant force
