    This document discusses fluids and fluid motion from a physics perspective. It defines ideal fluids as those with steady, incompressible, nonviscous, and irrotational flow. It introduces the equation of continuity which relates fluid density, cross-sectional area, and flow speed. Bernoulli's principle is also introduced as applying to ideal fluids in motion. Several applications of Bernoulli's principle are listed.

    Fluids in Motion

    ⇒ The motion of real fluids is very


    complicated and is not yet fully
    understood.

    ⇒ We will only discuss the motion of


    ideal fluids.
    Ideal Fluids
    1) Steady Flow: the velocity of the moving
    fluid at any fixed point does not change with
    time (not turbulent)
    Ideal Fluids
    Ideal Fluids
    2) Incompressible Flow: the fluid is incompressible
    (density is constant)

    3) Nonviscous Flow: friction within the fluid can be


    ignored

    4) Irrotational Flow: a tiny test body placed within


    the fluid will not rotate about an axis through its
    own center of mass
    The equation of continuity:

    ρ1A1 v1 = ρ2A2 v2

    A1 v1 = A2v2 (if ρ constant)

    ⇒ the flow speed increases


    when we decrease the cross-
    sectional area
