Understanding Fluid Mechanics

What is the primary focus of fluid mechanics?

• The behavior of fluids, including liquids and gases

• The behavior of solids

• The study of chemical reactions

• The study of electrical circuits

Which principle explains the concept of buoyancy in fluid mechanics?

• Archimedes' Principle

• Newton's Third Law

• Pascal's Law

• Bernoulli's Principle

What does viscosity refer to in the context of fluid mechanics?

• A fluid's resistance to flow

• A fluid's ability to change color

• A fluid's temperature

• A fluid's density

What is the significance of Pascal's Law in fluid mechanics?

• It explains how pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted equally throughout the fluid

• It describes the buoyant force on submerged objects

• It defines the relationship between fluid velocity and pressure

• It measures the density of liquids

What is a practical application of pneumatics in fluid mechanics?

• Operation of pneumatic systems in tools and machines

• Designing ships

• Measuring the density of liquids

• Creating non-Newtonian fluids
