Chapter 8 Section 3 – Fluid Statics & Archimedes' Principle

Graphs Related to Fluid Force

  • Graphs include:
      - Buoyant Force vs. Object Mass
      - Buoyant Force vs. Fluid Density
      - Buoyant Force vs. Volume of Displaced Fluid
      - Buoyant Force vs. Gravitational Field Strength

Archimedes’ Principle: Buoyant Force

  • Variables:
      - FbF_b: buoyant force (N)
      - <br>ho<br>ho: density of the fluid (kg/m³)
      - VV: volume of displaced fluid (m³)
      - gg: gravitational field strength (N/kg)

  • Buoyant Force Equation:
      - Fb=<br>hoVgF_b = <br>ho V g

Buoyant Force Comparison

  • Comparison:
      - Object B has a larger buoyant force due to displacing a larger volume of water.

High Buoyant Force Scenario

  • Example:
      - If both objects have the same volume, the object in honey experiences higher buoyant force because density of honey (1420 kg/m³) is higher than water (1000 kg/m³).

Buoyant Force of Different Materials

  • Observation: Buoyant force is based on fluid density, not the density of the objects. So, if they are in the same fluid, buoyant force is identical.

Buoyant Force and Depth

  • Principle: Depth does not affect buoyant force if the volume remains constant.

Buoyant Force and Orientation

  • Observation: Orientation does not impact buoyant force as it does not change the object's volume.

Difference in Pressure at Two Depths

  • Method: To determine difference in pressure, calculate absolute pressure at each depth and find the difference.

Pressure on Sides of a Cube

  • Equations:
      - extPressure=<br>hogh+Poext{Pressure} = <br>ho gh + P_o
      - extPressure=racextForceextAreaext{Pressure} = rac{ ext{Force}}{ ext{Area}}
      - extForce=extPressureimesextAreaext{Force} = ext{Pressure} imes ext{Area}

Four Cube Comparison

  • Key Point: In physics, floating means that the upward buoyant force equals the gravitational force.

Conservation of Mass and Fluid Flow Rate

  • Key Principles:

      - Water is considered incompressible (Ideal Fluid).
      - The volume of the liquid system is conserved.
      - The volume of water passing a point per second is constant, known as the Fluid Flow Rate QQ.
