Go with the Flow

Fluids (liquids and gases) behave in fascinating ways, and their principles are crucial in medicine and engineering.

Properties

• Density: Mass per unit volume (\( \rho = \frac{m}{V} \)).
• Pressure: Force per unit area (\( P = \frac{F}{A} \)).

Buoyancy

• Objects float or sink based on their density compared to the fluid.

Fluid Dynamics

• Bernoulli's Principle: In a moving fluid, higher speed means lower pressure.
• Explains airplane lift and blood flow in arteries.

Everyday Examples

Fluid dynamics is behind weather patterns, breathing, and how submarines dive.
