FLUIDS
•Matter, whether solid, liquid, or
gas exhibits both mechanical and thermal properties. •The fluid has the ability to flow and has the property that allows objects to sink or float. •states of matter- liquid, gas, and plasma- collectively called fluids. • The study of the properties of fluids is called fluids mechanics. • Hydrostatics or fluid statics deals with fluid at rest. • Hydrodynamics or fluid dynamics deals with the fluid in motion. •Mass density, or simply density is a property of matter defined as the ratio of its mass (m) to its volume (V). • It is denoted by the Greek letter rho (ρ) • The SI unit for density is kg/m3, while its cgs unit is g/cm3. The density of water at 40C is 1.0 g/cm3 or 1000 kg/m3. Note that 1 g/cm3 is equal to 1 ml. • Different substances have different densities. Gases are the least dense because their molecules are farther apart compared to those of solids and liquids. DENSITY OF SOLID • To determine the density of a solid, one needs to know its mass and volume. • The mass of a solid may be determined by using a weighing scale. For regular-shaped objects, the volume may be determined from their dimensions. For irregular-shaped objects, the volume may be determined using the displacement method. • In the displacement method, the object is dipped into a container with liquid (e.g. water) The volume of the liquid that the object displaced is its volume. •A 0.854 kg cylinder has a diameter of 13.4 cm and a height of 25.2 cm. What is the density of this cylinder? DENSITY OF LIQUID • The density of a liquid is usually determined by using a bottle called a pycnometer with a known volume capacity. • The pycnometer is weighted (in terms of mass) twice: (1) when it is empty and (2) when it is filled with a given liquid. • The mass of the liquid is the difference between the two masses. • A 235 ml pycnometer has a mass of 500 g when empty and 670 g when filled with an unknown liquid. What is the density of the liquid in kg/m3? DENSITY OF IDEAL GASES PRESSURE
• The pressure is defined as the
magnitude of the force acting perpendicular per unit area of the area •Activity 2: Density Problem • Solve the following:
• 1. An aluminum sphere has a diameter of 15.6 cm AND A
DENSITY OF 15KG/M3. what is its mass? 2. A person contains 7 L of blood. Blood is composed of 55 percent plasma and 45 percent of blood cells by volume. The density of blood plasma is approximately 1025 kg/m3 and the density of the blood cells circulating in the blood is approximately 1125 kg/m3. Determine the mass of the blood and blood cells in seven liters of human blood. (Hint: 1L = 0.001 m3) 3. A plastic container has a mass of 55g when empty and 175 g when filled with alcohol. If the density of alcohol is 0.79 g/ml, what is its volume? 4. What is the resulting density when you mix 5.0 L of ethyl alcohol and 12.0 L water? PRESSURE
