HYDROSTATIC FORCE (EXPERIMENT 1) INTRODUCTION The determination of force which are exerted by liquid which are at rest on surface immersed in liquids. From the study by hydrostatic‚ the following principles have been established : a) There are no shear stress present when the fluid is not in motion. b) The pressure exerted by a fluid under hydrostatic conditions. This pressure acts perpendicular to an immersed surface. c) Hydrostatic pressure various linearly‚ increasing with an

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this module is to investigate hydrostatic forces on a plane surface under partial and full submersion. 2 2. DESCRIPTION The apparatus shown in Figure 1 will be used. It consists of a quarter circle block attached to a cantilevered arm with a rectangular surface on the other end. The pivot point on the arm corresponds to the center of radius of the block.

have done an experiment on hydrostatics‚ or is also known as fluid statics (fluid at rest) within the fluid mechanics field of study. This condition explains that in a stable condition‚ the fluid is at rest. The use of fluid in doing work is known as hydraulics‚ and the science of fluid in motion is known as fluid dynamics. INTRODUCTION The natural nature of fluids are they cannot remain stationary under the application of shear stress. However‚ fluid can apply force normal to any surface contacting

Mechanical Engineering: Hydrostatic Force Introduction Hydrostatics is a fundamental aspect of mechanics which consists of the analysis of fluid bodies which are either completely at rest or slow enough for any motion to be neglected during calculations. The concept of hydrostatics has many applications in industry‚ some notable ones being: Manmade dams and water features preventing the passage of water. In this particular example‚ large volumes of water is held back‚ which is eventually released

Abstract: The previous lab explored the effect of gravity on free fall. It was determined that acceleration is always constant under free fall. However‚ in this lab‚ acceleration was observed under different forces‚ other than just gravity. Therefore‚ depending on how strong the forces being exerted were‚ acceleration differed. It wasn’t constant anymore. Using a glider on a air track and a pulley‚ different masses were attached at the end of the string and the glider was allowed to move on the

Buoyant Forces The purpose of this lab is to calculate buoyant forces of objects submerged in water. The first step in the lab was to measure the mass of a metal cylinder‚ which was found to be 100g‚ and then to calculated it’s weight‚ which was .98 newtons. Then next step was to measure the apparent weight of the cylinder when it is completely submerged in a bath of water using the formula Wa=ma*g ‚ this was found to be 88.5grams. Knowing these two numbers‚ the buoyant force that the water

yields two integrations: x = x0+v0t+1/2at2 v = v9+at These two expressions show the relationship between position‚ velocity‚ and acceleration at a given time. Newton’s 2nd law states that the acceleration of an object depends on the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object. If there were no friction in this experiment‚ then the acceleration of the glider would be equal to acceleration of gravity multiplied by the angle between the air track and the horizontal table (g

The purpose of the first part of the lab‚ 4.1 What a Drag!‚ was to measure the force required to pull a block over five different surfaces. The sliding surfaces used in the lab were the tabletop‚ waxed paper‚ paper towel‚ fine sandpaper‚ and coarse sandpaper. The purpose of the second lab‚ 4.2 Changing The Load‚ was
