19
Q

This is the amount of force applied in certain amount of time to cause a change in momentum

A

Impulse

20
Q

What is the symbol for impulse?

A

Big letter “I”

21
Q

What is the unit for impulse?

A

22
Q

What is the real life application of impulse?

A

23
Q

In a collision, an object experiences a force for a specific amount of time that results on a change in momentum. The results of the force action for the given amount of time is that the object’s mass either speeds up or slows down (or changes direction).

A

Impulse-momentum theorem

24
Q

a substance that continually deforms (flow) under an applied shear stress or external force.

A

Fluid

25
Q

Is concerned with the motion of the bodies under the action of forces including special case when the body remains at rest.

A

Mechanics

26
Q

it is the field in physics that studies the motion and properties of static fluids.

A

Fluid mechanics

27
Q

A material defined as the ratio of its mass(m) and volume(v).

A

Density

28
Q

What is the unit for density?

A

kg/m^3 (m/V)

29
Q

A substance is defined as the ratio of the density of the substance and the density of water at 4 degrees celsius.

A

Specific Gravity (SG)

30
Q

SG dont have a

A

unit

31
Q

Formula for SG is?

A

psub/pwater (Density of substance / density of water [1g/ml or 1/cm^3)

32
Q

This is known for as the amount of force applied per unit area

A

Pressure

33
Q

What is the unit for pressure?

A

N/m^2 or Pa

34
Q

“If an external pressure is applies to a confined fluid, the pressure at every point within the fluid increases by the same amount”

A

Pascal’s Principle

35
Q

What are the types of flow?

A

Laminar and turbulent flow

36
Q

It’s a smooth flow?

A

Laminar flow

37
Q

It is chaotic flow?

A

turbulent flow

38
Q

When an object is completely is partially immersed in a fluid exert an upward (Buoyant) force on the object that is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.

A

Buoyancy and Archimedes’ Principle

39
Q

In fluid dynamics, the continuity equation states that the rate at which mass enters a system is equal to the rate at which mass leaves the system; plus the accumulation of mass within the system.

A

Equation of Continuity

40
Q

Increasing the lever arm will result to?

A

Increase of torque

41
