A. Archimedes’ Principle Fluid matter that flows liquids and gases Buoyancy the ability of a fluid to exert an upward force on an object immersed in it
A. Archimedes’ Principle Bouyant Force upward force exerted by a fluid on an immersed object bouyant force > weight balloon rises bouyant force < weight balloon sinks bouyant force = weight balloon floats
A. Archimedes’ Principle the bouyant force on an object in a fluid is equal to the weight of fluid displaced by the object Very little water needs to be displaced in order to cancel weight ball floats on surface. More water needs to be displaced in order to cancel weight ball floats lower in the water. Not enough water is displaced in order to cancel weight ball sinks. View Buoyancy JAVA Applet.

B. Pascal’s Principle Platform: 1000 N = F2 F = 1000 N 250 m2 10 m2 A car weighing 1000 N sits on a 250 m2 platform. What force is needed on the 10 m2 plunger to keep the car from sinking? GIVEN: Platform: F = 1000 N A = 250 m2 Plunger: F = ? A = 10 m2 WORK: 1000 N = F2 250 m2 10 m2 (1000 N)(10 m2)=(250 m2)F2 F2 = 40 N
C. Bernoulli’s Principle as the velocity of a fluid increases, the pressure exerted by the fluid decreases EX:airplane lift, curve balls
