FluidsFluids
Liquids and gases are both fluids:a fluid is any substance that flows
and takes the shape of its container.
FluidsFluids
Liquids and gases are both fluids:a fluid is any substance that flows
and takes the shape of its container.
If the fluids are at rest, the study of them is called __________.
If the fluids are in motion, the study of them is called ____________.
FluidsFluids
Liquids and gases are both fluids:a fluid is any substance that flows
and takes the shape of its container.
If the fluids are at rest, the study of them is called fluid statics.
If the fluids are in motion, the study of them is called ____________.

Liquids and gases are both fluids:a fluid is any substance that flows

If the fluids are at rest, the study of them is called fluid statics.
If the fluids are in motion, the study of them is called fluid dynamics.
FluidsFluidsThe science and technology of
the mechanical properties of liquids is called _________.
Similarly, the science and technology of the mechanical properties of air and other gases is called ___________.
FluidsFluidsThe science and technology of
the mechanical properties of liquids is called hydraulics.
Similarly, the science and technology of the mechanical properties of air and other gases is called ___________.
FluidsFluidsThe science and technology of
the mechanical properties of liquids is called hydraulics.
Similarly, the science and technology of the mechanical properties of air and other gases is called pneumatics.
SystemsSystems
The study of hydraulics and pneumatics includes the study of fluids that are not enclosed, such as lakes and air in the atmosphere, as well as pressurized systems that are enclosed.
SystemsSystemsA hydraulic system is a
mechanical system that operates using a liquid under pressure
A pneumatic system operates using a gas under pressure.
What’s the difference?What’s the difference?
Liquids flow and take the shape of their container but maintain a constant volume.
What’s the difference?What’s the difference?
Gases expand to fill the available volume.
States of Matter RevisitedStates of Matter Revisited
This is because the difference in what the particles are doing.
Particle Theory Particle Theory RevisitedRevisited
1. All matter is made up of extremely tiny particles.
2. Each pure substance has its own kind of particles, different from the particles of other pure substances.
The same pure substance in three different states.

3. Particles are always moving. Particles at a higher temperature are generally moving faster on average than particles at a lower temperature.
Remember the “Dance of the Molecules?”
Particle Theory Particle Theory RevisitedRevisited
4. Particles attract each other.
See? They’re smiling.
SolidsSolids
In a solid, the particles are moving slowly enough that this attraction keeps them in a rigid structure.
LiquidsLiquids
In a liquid, the particles move fast enough that they can’t stay in a rigid structure but they still want to stay close by.
GasesGases
In a gas, however, the particles are moving even faster and fly by each other, bouncing off the edges of the container.
Evaporation: a liquid molecule becoming a gas molecule.
PlasmaPlasmaNote that there is a 4th state of matter
called plasma which has free electrons that can conduct electricity and be influenced by magnetic fields.
It is similar to a gas in its properties.
CompressibilityCompressibilityGases are therefore highly compressible: their particles can be forced back closer together.
