VOCABULARY
The measure of a fluid's resistance to flow
VISCOSITY
A body system that resembles a hydraulic system
CIRCULATORY
The ability to float is due to
BUOYANCY
Length x width x height
The formula for mass density
Mass/volume
Anything that has mass (weight) and takes up space
MATTER
An air compressor is an example of a
PNEUMATIC SYSTEM
An object that has more density than water will have
NEGATIVE BUOYANCY
Friction, Cohesion and Temperature are all factors that affect
VISCOSITY
if water is 1g/cubic cm and an object is 1.424g/cubic cm, it will have
A NEGATIVE BUOYACY
A measure that has no fixed shape and is free to flow, such as a liquid or gas
FLUID
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
An object that has a density less than water will have
POSITIVE BUOYANCY
This concept explains how an upward force that is exerted on a body immersed is a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
ARCHIMEDES PRINCIPLE
Assuming water has a density of 1g/cubic cm an object with a density of 0.42 g/cubic cm will have
POSITIVE BUOYANCY
This is a type of system that is filled with gas.
This is the volume of a fluid which passes per unit of time
VOLUMETRIC FLOW RATE
An object that has the same density as water will have
NEUTRAL BUOYANCY
The difference between mass versus weight.
Mass is a measure of how much matter is in an object, where as weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass.
is the ratio of mass to volume for a substance
DENSITY
Is a word used to describe when an object or substance take the place of another.
DISPLACMENT
Flow rate is calculated by
VOLUME OF FLUID PASSING (DIVIDED) BY TIME
A common unit of measurement for water's density is
1g/ml or 1g/cubic cm
This concept states that if pressure is exerted on a fluid, it will be evenly distributed throughout the fluid.
PASCAL'S LAW
A piece of aluminum has a volume of 20 cubic cm and has a mass of 45g. Calculate the density.
2.25 grams/cubic cm
