400
Anything that has mass and volume
What is matter?
400
Tendency of an object in a fluid to rise or sink due to the density differences with its surrounding
What is buoyancy?
400
System that uses a liquid under pressure to transmit a force and do work.
What is hydraulic system?
400
meausure of speed at which a fluid flows from one point to another; determined by measuring the amount of fluid that flows past a given point in a given time
What is flow rate?
400
upward force exerted by a fluid
What is a bouyant force?
500
Theory that states that all matter is made up of particles; that all all particles of one substance are identical; that particles of matter are in constant motion; that temperature effects the speed at which; that particles have forces of attraction between them; and that there are spaces between particles.
What is particle theory of matter?
500

How do you calculate density?
500
law that states when a force is applied to an inclosed fluid, the increase in pressure is transmitted equally to all parts of the fluid
