Formulas and Key Relations
1) Basic Fluid Concepts
ρ = m/V
P_av = F/A
P = lim(ΔA→0) ΔF/ΔA
2) Pressure in Fluids and Atmosphere
P2 - P1 = ρgh
P = Pa + ρgh
Pa = ρgh
3) Pascal's Law and Hydraulic Machines
F2 = (A2/A1)F1
A1v1 = A2v2
4) Streamline Flow and Continuity
A_Pv_P = A_Rv_R = A_Qv_Q (Av = constant)
Key relations
Density is mass per unit volume, ρ = m/V.
In a fluid at rest, pressure increases with depth according to P2 - P1 = ρgh.
Atmospheric pressure at sea level is 1 atm = 1.013 × 10^5 Pa.
The mercury barometer measures atmospheric pressure using Pa = ρgh.
