Section 2 Fluids

Describe the buoyant force and explain how it keeps objects afloat.

Define Archimedes’ principle. Explain the role of density in an object’s ability

to float. State and apply Pascal’s principle.

Chapter 3

A fluid is a nonsolid state of matter in which the atoms or molecules are free to move past each other, as in a gas or liquid.

Fluids are able to flow because their particles can move past each other easily.

The properties of fluids allow huge ships to float, divers to explore the ocean depths, and jumbo jets to soar across the skies.

Section 2 FluidsChapter 3

Buoyant force is the upward force exerted on an object immersed in or floating on a fluid.

Buoyancy explains why objects float.

• All fluids exert pressure: the amount of force exerted per unit area of a surface.

• Archimedes’ principle states that the buoyant force on an object in a fluid is an upward force equal to the weight of the volume of fluid that the object displaces.

The volume of fluid displaced by an object placed in a fluid will be equal to the volume of the part of the object submerged.

The figure below shows how displacement works.

Section 2 FluidsChapter 3

An object will float or sink based on its density.

• If an object is less dense than the fluid in which it is placed, it will float.

• If an object is more dense than the fluid in which it is placed, it will sink.

Section 2 FluidsChapter 3

Fluids exert pressure evenly in all directions.

• For example, when you pump up a bicycle tire, air particles are constantly pushing against each other and against the walls of the tire.

Section 2 FluidsChapter 3

Pressure can be calculated by dividing force by the area over which the force is exerted:

forcepressure

area=

Section 2 FluidsChapter 3

• The SI unit for pressure is the pascal

(abbreviation: Pa), equal to the force of one

newton exerted over an area of one square meter

(1 N/m2).

Section 2 FluidsChapter 3

Pascal’s principle states that a fluid in equilibrium contained in a vessel exerts a pressure of equal intensity in all directions.

Mathematically, Pascal’s principle is stated as p1 = p2, or pressure1 = pressure2.

Section 2 FluidsChapter 3

Pascal’s Principle A hydraulic lift, shown in the figure below, makes use of Pascal’s principle, to lift a 19,000 N car. If the area of the small piston (A1) equals 10.5 cm2 and the area of the large piston (A2) equals 400 cm2, what force needs to be exerted on the small piston to lift the car?

Section 2 FluidsChapter 3

1. List the given and unknown values. Given: F2 = 19,000 N

A1 = 10.5 cm2

A2 = 400 cm2

Unknown: F1

Hydraulic devices are based on Pascal’s principle.• Hydraulic devices can multiply forces, as shown in the

figure below. Because the pressure is the same on both sides of the enclosed fluid, a small force on the smaller area (at left) produces a much larger force on the larger area (at right).

Section 2 FluidsChapter 3

Viscosity is the resistance of a gas or liquid to flow.

Bernoulli’s principle states that as the speed of a moving fluid increases, the pressure of the moving fluid decreases.

• Bernoulli’s principle is illustrated below: as a leaf passes through a drainage pipe from point 1 to point 2, it speeds up, and the water pressure decreases.
