4) Pascal’s law – a principle of fluid properties that states when pressure is applied to a confined fluid, the pressure is transmitted, undiminished, throughout the fluid. Additionally, this pressure acts on all surfaces of the container, at right angles to those surfaces. Discovered by French scientist Blaise Pascal in 1653.…

The purpose of the Cartesian diver is to demonstrate the compressibility of a gas, the incompressibility of water, Boyle's law, Pascal's law, and Archimedes' law. Boyle's Law states that under conditions of constant temperature and quantity, there is an inverse relationship between the volume and pressure for an ideal gas. Pascal's Law states that if pressure is applied to a non-flowing fluid in a container, then that pressure is transmitted equally in all directions within the container. Archimedes' principles is an upward force on an object immersed in a fluid (a liquid or a gas), enabling it to float or at least to appear to become lighter. If the buoyancy exceeds the weight, then the object floats; if the weight exceeds the buoyancy, the object sinks. It was Archimedes who first discovered buoyancy…
Figure (1)-(2) shows the apparatus used for the experiment consist of a acrylic duct of varying cross-section known as a Venturi as shown in Figure (4). The duct has 10 wall tappings for the measurement of static pressure in both convergent and divergent area of a duct. This duct is connected to a flow meter on its right side, where the flow rate is being set as shown in the figure (6). On its left side apparatus is being connected to manometer through 10 different pipes and readings at each of the tapping for each flow rate are being recorded as shown in figure (5). Pressure of water is being controlled by attached hand pump by adjusting valve as shown in figure (3)…
In fluid dynamics, Bernoulli's principle states that for an inviscid flow, an increase in the speed of the fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in pressure or a decrease in the fluid's potential energy.[1][2] Bernoulli's principle is named after the Dutch-Swiss mathematician Daniel Bernoulliwho published his principle…

Robert Boyle, a philosopher and theologian, studied the properties of gases in the 17th century. He noticed that gases behave similarly to springs; when compressed or expanded, they tend to ‘spring’ back to their original volume. He published his findings in 1662 in a monograph entitled The Spring of the Air and Its Effects. You will make observations similar to those of Robert Boyle and learn about the relationship between the pressure and volume of an ideal gas.…
Pressure is explained by the Kinetic Theory as arising from the force exerted by collision of gas molecules with the walls of the container.…

Bernoulli’s Equation can analyse the flow of the wind. It is basically to determine the pressure imposed by the wind to the structure of the bridge. Bernoulli’s Equation states that,…
Archimedes' principle indicates that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially submerged, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces. Archimedes' principle is a law of physics fundamental to fluid mechanics. Archimedes of Syracuse[1] formulated this principle, which bears his name.…
