Quiz 1 Flashcards
As the speed of a fluid increases, pressure exerted by the fluid ______?
Decreases according to Bernoulli
Kinetic energy is different than potential energy in that kinetic energy is ______?
Energy in motion.
Potential energy is____?
Stored energy
Calculate the total pressure (Ptotal) if the gauge pressure (Pgauge) on an oxygen cylinder reads 10psi and atmospheric pressure (Patmosphere) is 14.7psi
24.7 psi
T/F: Kinetic energy is the energy an object has by virtue of being in motion.
True
T/F: A change in internal energy can be calculated from the head and work processes.
True
Pressure is the force/area. To increase pressure you need to______.
Decrease the area the force is applied AND increase the applied force.
T/F: A Bourdon gauge utilizes a coiled tube to measure the pressure of the gas in a cylinder and the atmospheric pressure.
FALSE:
It measures the DIFFERENCE between the pressure exerted by the gas in a cylinder and atmospheric pressure.
Mass is:
The amount of matter in an object.
The second law of thermodynamics states:
Thermal contact between two bodies transfers heat from hot to cold.
Viscosity is the property which determines:
Laminar flow
According to Pascal’s principle, what happens if you have a confined fluid at a given pressure, and an external pressure is applied?
The pressure is transmitted unchanged to every point with in the fluid.
(ex. arterial line)
Pressure=?
Pressure = Force/Area
Newton’s first law of motion:
An object at rest remains at rest until a force acts upon it.
The greater the mass of an object, the more force is required to move it.
T/F: Gases are in constant motion unless a force is applied.
True
Newton’s second law of motion:
Acceleration and force are vectors and the direction of the force vector is the same as the direction of the acceleration vector.
Force=Mass x Acceleration
Force=
Mass x Acceleration
Newton’s third law of motion:
for every action there is an equal and opposite action.
Define weight
the gravitational force exerted on an object
Speed=
Rate of motion, rate of change in position.
T/F: Speed is a vector value
False. Speed has magnitude, but no direction. Speed is a scaler value.
Velocity=
Velocity=displacement of position/time
Acceleration=
Acceleration is change in velocity/time
Vectors have both ______ and ______, and are _____.
Vectors have both magnitude AND direction, and are additive.
Atmospheric pressure = ______mmHg
760mmHg= 760 torr= 1 atm
Resistance= _____/_____
R= change in pressure/flow
Work = ____x____
Work= force x distance moved
w=Fs
Work is the expenditure of energy.
Units expressed in Joules.
