4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define Pascal’s Law.
Think about how pressure behaves in connected containers.
What does hydrostatics study?
Consider fluids that aren't flowing.
What happens to pressure in a confined fluid when an external force is applied?
Think about how connected fluids behave when pressure is applied.
True or False: In a static fluid, pressure increases with depth.
Consider how weight affects pressure in various fluids.
Design a small hydraulic lift using Pascal's Law. If a force of 200 N is applied to the smaller cylinder with a diameter of 0.1 m, what is the maximum weight it can lift if the larger cylinder has a diameter of 0.5 m?
Think about how the area ratios relate to force in a hydraulic system.
An open tank has water up to a depth of 5 m. Calculate the total pressure at the bottom of the tank. How would this change if the tank was filled to a height of 10 m instead?
Use the formula for pressure at a given depth to calculate.
