Fluids Concept Map
Fluids Concept Map
Fluid: A substance with no real shape
that flows from gravity. Fluids are also
essential to all life on Earth.
Nature
Archer Fish: A type of fish that uses hydraulics
to shoot insects with water away from plants.
Swim Bladder: A bladder in which fish use
to control their buoyancy.
Water: A colorless liquid that acts as a fluid
which can be found in many natural places on
Earth.
Natural Laws
Pressure: A physical force on
an object.
Compression: To squeeze something
in a small area.
Pascal's Law: The law in which the amount of
area/force = pressure in containers with fluids.
Buoyancy: An upward force than can
found in nature and technology
Technology
Hydraulic System: A system that uses liquids
under pressure.
Vault: Technology which uses hydraulics
and fluids to create working functions in
techology.
Ballast Tank: Parts of a submarine which is used
to change the vessel's buoyancy.
The SCIENCE of Fluids
Density: Mass per unit volume of
something.
Fluid Dynamics: A part of fluid mechanics
which is a study of how fluid move.
Hydrodynamics: A part of fluid dynamics
which is a study of how liquids move.
Viscosity: A fluid's resistance to changing
volume.
Maple Syrup
Cohesion: Two same substances sticking together.
Adhesion: Two different substances sticking together.
Gasses
Aerodynamics: The study of how gasses
move.
Gas: A matter in which has no mass or density
which can fit in any container.
