Note: for liquid and solids, the reference density is water at 4°C
unless stated in the problem
5.) VISCOSITY
-is a property of fluids that describes its resistance to flow. It
determines how easily a fluid can flow or be deformed when subjected
to an external force or sheer stress.

7.) COMPRESSIBILITY
-denoted by the Greek letter “β” (Beta), is a property of fluids that
describes how much their volume changes in response to changes in
pressure. It quantifies a fluid’s ability to be compressed or its tendency
to decrease in volume when subjected to an increase in pressure.
Formula:
CAPILLARITY
-also known as Capillary Action or Capillary Rise, is a phenomenon in
which liquids move upward (or downward) in a narrow tubes or channels
against the force of gravity.
Formula:
PRESSURE DISTURBANCES
-This refers to changes in pressure within the fluid. Various factors can
cause these disturbances and can have significant effects on the
behavior of fluid such as Sound waves, Hydrodynamics, Turbulence and
Shockwaves. Pressure disturbances imposed on a fluid move in waves.
