Mechanical Properties of Fluids

In this topic, we will learn about the pressure present inside a fluid. Examples are included to strengthen the concept.

In this topic, we will learn the concept related to pressure. It also talks about Pascal's law with expression and examples.

In this topic, we will come across the statement and proof of Archimedes' principle. It highlights the applications of this principle in physics. We will also study the concept of buoyant force here with the aid of examples.

This topic helps us understand the difference between the streamlined and turbulent flow. We will discuss the concept of critical velocity here. It also covers the significance of Reynold's number and coefficient of viscosity.

This topic explains the term critical velocity and how it lead to the cause of turbulent. It helps us learn about streamline flow of liquids. We will also learn about Reynolds number and its value.

In this topic, we will learn about Bernoulli’s principle, its equation and applications. It also explains the flow of an ideal fluid in a pipe of varying cross section with illustrations.

In this topic, we will learn about surface tension. It elaborates surface energy and angle of contact. Drops and bubbles, capillary rise and concept of surface tension in detergent are also explained here with an illustration.

In the topic, we will come across the definition of capillary action. It mentions the applications of capillarity here. We will study the different types of forces in capillary action via examples. It also briefs us on the concept of surface tension.

This topic deals with the concept of viscosity. It also explains Stoke’s law with its formula. The viscosities of some fluids are also mentioned here along with illustration and examples.

This topic covers concepts such as Stokes Law, Viscous Force on Spherical Bodies, Velocity of Spherical Ball in Viscous Medium, Terminal Velocity of Spherical Ball, Applications of Stokes Law, Velocity of Rain Drops, etc.
