2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define hydrostatic pressure.
Think about how fluid weight contributes to pressure.
What is the equilibrium condition for forces?
Consider balance; what do you need for no net movement?
What is the main principle of hydrostatic pressure?
Think about what happens as you go deeper in a pool.
True or False: The resultant force on a submerged surface acts at its centroid.
Remember the geometry of the object.
You have a triangular gate submerged at a 45-degree angle at a depth of 3m in water. Determine the required force to maintain its equilibrium against the water pressure.
Consider how pressure acts differently at various points along the gate.
An inclined manometer shows fluid heights of 150mm of oil (specific gravity 0.8) and 100mm of water. What is the pressure at the gas pipeline connection?
How do the heights relate to pressures based on specific gravities?
