100
Choppy and irregular flow
What is turbulent flow?
100
For this method of volume measurement, place the item into water and calculate the difference in the water level.
What is displacement?
100
A pressurized liquids system
What is a hydraulic system?
100
How to decrease viscosity
What is heating a liquid?
100
Materials that have no fixed shape and are free to flow.
What is a fluid?
200
A smooth shape designed to decrease resistance to fluid flow.
What is streamlined?
200
Density
What is a measure of the mass per unit volume of a substance?
200
A system that uses gases under pressure
What is a pneumatic system?
200
Slows down flow rate
What is cooling a liquid?
200
The formula to calculate flow rate
What is volume divided by time?
300
Viscosity
What is a measure of how easily a fluid's particles are able to slide past one another?
300
Buoyant force
What is the upward force of a fluid?
300
The four parts of a hydraulic and pneumatic system
What is a pump, conductors (pipes, tubes), valves, and pressure gauge monitors?
300
Why density decreases when the substance is heated
What is particles move faster and spread out more, therefore increasing volume
300
A hydrometer will sink deeper in a substance that has this
What is a low density?
400
Factors that effect flow rate(name 3)
What is the type of fluid, size of force, size of pipe/opening, type of surface flowing over
400
Submarines fill this with water to increase its overall density, and sink in the water
What is a ballast tank?
400
What happens to air pressure at high altitudes
What is decreases? (Since less air particles pressing down)
400
What happens to pressure when a system is heated
What is increases?
400
The density of water
What is 1g/mL?
500
This strong attraction between molasses and the container slowed down its flow rate
What is adhesion?
500
The formula to calculate density
What is mass divided by volume?
500
Pressure
What is the amount of force applied to a certain area?
500
The temperature of water's maximum density
What is four degrees Celcius?
500
The two factors that effect the amount of pressure a fluid exerts
What is the size of the force, and the total area the force acts on?
