Statics of Fluids


F1-12: PASCAL'S LAW - COILED TUBE PARADOX

Purpose: Illustrate Pascal's law in a dramatic way.

F1-11: HYDRAULIC PRESS

Purpose: Demonstrate dramatically Pascal's Law and the large forces attainable using hydraulic systems.

F1-05: DOES WATER SEEK ITS OWN LEVEL?

Purpose: A trick to challenge the students.

F1-04: EQUILIBRIUM TUBES

Purpose: Demonstrate that pressure is transmitted equally throughout a fluid.

F1-03: PASCAL'S VASES

Purpose: Demonstrate that pressure is dependent only on depth, and not on the shape of the container.

F1-02: FLUID PRESSURE VS DEPTH - ANEROID GAUGE

Purpose: Show water pressure versus depth with an aneroid gauge.

F2-21 REACTION TO BUOYANT FORCE

Category: F2 Buoyancy

Purpose: Demonstrates the reaction force using a liquid.

F2-06: BUOYANCY - SINKING BOAT

Category: F2 Buoyancy

Purpose: Illustrates buoyancy

F2-05 BUOYANCY - BOAT AND ROCK

Category: F2 Buoyancy

Purpose: Illustrates buoyancy

F2-01 ARCHIMEDES' PRINCIPLE

Category: F2 Buoyancy

Purpose: Demonstrates the buoyant force on a body submerged in a fluid to be equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.

F1-06 WATER SEEKS ITS OWN LEVEL

Purpose: Shows that pressure is dependent on depth, not shape of container

F1-01 FLUID PRESSURE VS. DEPTH

Purpose: Demonstrates that fluid pressure increases linearly with depth and is isotropic.
