Sample Exam

I. Identification (15 points)

__________ 1. Pressure measured by means of gages above or below the
atmospheric level.
__________ 2. Property of liquid that is due to both cohesion and adhesion.
__________ 3. Expresses the compressibility of the liquid. It is the ratio of the
change in unit pressure to the corresponding volume change per unit of volume.
__________ 4. Mass per unit volume of a substance.
__________ 5. It is a branch of physical science which deals with the mechanics of
liquids and gases and is based on the same fundamental principles that are
employed in the mechanics of solids.
__________ 6. It is defined as the ratio of the unit of pressure to the specific weight
of a substance/water.
__________ 7. Quantitative measure of the amount of matter in a given body.
__________ 8. Also known as “Relative Density”
__________ 9. Effect of cohesion between particles of the liquid at its free surface. It
is the ratio of surface-tension force to the length (L).
__________ 10. An equipment that is accurate and is used in a relatively simple way
to measure the atmospheric pressure.
__________ 11. Particularly useful tool in emptying containers that should not be
tipped.
__________ 12. Pressure exerted by the atmosphere on every surface with which it
comes in contact and is measured by a barometer.
__________ 13. Measure of resistance of a fluid to shear or angular deformation.
__________ 14. The principle from no. 17 is also known as?
__________ 15. Simplest form of open manometer.
__________ 16. Law which indicates that at any point in a fluid at rest, the pressure
is the same in all directions,
__________ 17. A principle discovered by a Greek scientist. This principle states
that, “any body immersed in a fluid is acted upon by an upward force (buoyant force)
equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.
__________ 18. Property of liquid which determines the amount of resistance to
shear forces.
__________ 19. A space that has all matter removed from it.
__________ 20. Pressure at any point below the free surface of a liquid is equal to
the product of the unit weight of the liquid and the depth of the point in question.
__________ 21. Concerned with the relations between velocities and accelerations
and the forces exerted upon fluids in motion.
__________ 22. Deals with velocities and streamlines without considering forces or
energy.
__________ 23. A fluid which has no viscosity nor friction
