Introduction
1. Liquids and gases can flow and are therefore, called
fluids.
a) Incompressible
b) Non - Viscous
Pressure
Unit Of Volume
Q1)
•Pressure in Fluids
When an object is submerged
in a fluid at rest, the fluid
exerts a force on its surface.
This force is always normal to
the object’s surface
•Density of Fluids

Q10)The force acting on a window of area 50 cm x 50 cm of a
submarine at a depth of 2000 m in an ocean, the interior of
which is maintained at sea level atmospheric pressure is
(Density of sea water= 103kg m-3 , g=10 m/s2)
a) 5x105 N
b) 25x105 N
c) 5x106 N
d) 2.5x106 N
•Variation of Fluid Pressure along the same
Horizontal Level
For a liquid in equilibrium the pressure
is same at all points in a horizontal
plane. Suppose the pressure were not
equal in different parts of the fluid, then
there would be a flow as the fluid will
have some net force acting on it. Hence
in the absence of flow the pressure in
the fluid must be same everywhere in a
horizontal plane.

•Barometer
• Torricelli devised a method for
measuring atmospheric pressure.
• A long glass tube closed at one
end and filled with mercury is
inverted into a trough of mercury
• This device is known as ‘mercury
barometer’.
•Pascal’s Law
“ Whenever external pressure is applied
on any part of a fluid contained in a
vessel, it is transmitted undiminished
and equally in all directions”
•Hydraulic Lift
Q20)Two pistons of a hydraulic machine have diameters 20 cm and
2 cm. Find the force exerted on the larger piston when 50 kg wt is
placed on the smaller piston. When the smaller piston moves
through 50 cm, by what distance the other piston moves out?

Viscosity
Viscous Force -
1)Viscosity is internal friction in a fluid
motion
2)It occurs due to relative motion
between layers of liquid
3)The internal friction force in fluids is
called Viscous Force.
4)Viscous Force depends on relative
motion between layers (velocity
gradient) , Area of contact between
two layers and type of fluid.
Coeffecient of Viscosity
Stoke’s Law
When an object moves
through a fluid , it
experiences a viscous force
It is seen that the viscous force
is proportional to the velocity
of the object and is opposite to
the direction of motion.
Terminal velocity
Rain drops
We consider a raindrop in air. It
accelerates initially due to gravity. As
the velocity increases, the retarding
force also increases. Finally, when
viscous force plus buoyant force
becomes equal to the force due to
gravity, the net force becomes zero
and so does the acceleration. The
sphere (raindrop) then descends with
a constant velocity
