Chapter 9 Solids and Fluids

1. Chapter 9 Solids and Fluids

2. States of matter • Solid • Liquid • Gas • Plasma

3. Solids • Have definite volume and shape • Molecules: • 1) are held in specific locations by electrical forces • 2) vibrate about equilibrium positions • 3) can be modeled as springs connecting molecules

4. Solids • Crystalline solid: atoms have an ordered structure (e.g., diamond, salt) • Amorphous solid: atoms are arranged almost randomly (e.g., glass)

5. Fluids • Fluids – substances that can flow (gases, liquids) • Fluids conform with the boundaries of any container in which they are placed • Fluids lack orderly long-range arrangement of atoms and molecules they consist of • Fluids can be compressible and incompressible

6. Liquids • Have a definite volume, but no definite shape • Exists at a higher temperature than solids • The molecules “wander” through the liquid in a random fashion • The intermolecular forces are not strong enough to keep the molecules in a fixed position

7. Gases • Have neither definite volume nor definite shape • Molecules are in constant random motion • The molecules exert only weak forces on each other • Average distance between molecules is large compared to the size of the molecules

8. Plasmas • Matter heated to a very high temperature • Many of the electrons are freed from the nucleus • Result is a collection of free, electrically charged ions • Plasmas exist inside stars

9. Indeterminate structures • Indeterminate systems cannot be solved by a simple application of the equilibrium conditions • In reality, physical objects are • not absolutely rigid bodies • Concept of elasticity is employed

10. Elasticity • All real “rigid” bodies can change their dimensions as a result of pulling, pushing, twisting, or compression • This is due to the behavior of a microscopic structure of the materials they are made of • Atomic lattices can be approximated as sphere/spring repetitive arrangements

11. Stress and strain • All deformations result from a stress – deforming force per unit area • Deformations are described by a strain – unit deformation • Coefficient of proportionality between stress and strain is called a modulus of elasticity • stress = modulus * strain

12. Thomas Young (1773 – 1829) • Tension and compression • Strain is a dimensionless ratio – fractional change in length of the specimen ΔL/Li • The modulus for tensile and compressive strength is called the Young’s modulus

13. Tension and compression • Strain is a dimensionless ratio – fractional change in length of the specimen ΔL/Li • The modulus for tensile and compressive strength is called the Young’s modulus

14. Shearing • For the stress, force vector lies in the plane of the area • Strain is a dimensionless ratio Δx/h • The modulus for this case is called the shear modulus

15. Hydraulic stress • The stress is fluid pressure P = F/A • Strain is a dimensionless ratio ΔV/V • The modulus is called the bulk modulus

16. Blaise Pascal (1623 - 1662) • Density and pressure • Density • SI unit of density: kg/m3 • Pressure • SI unit of pressure: N/m2 = Pa (pascal) • Pressure is a scalar – at a given point in a fluid the measured force is the same in all directions • For a uniform force on a flat area

17. Atmospheric pressure • Atmospheric pressure: • P0 = 1.00 atm = 1.013 x 105 Pa • Specific gravity of a substance is the ratio of its density to the density of water at 4° C (1000 kg/m3) • Specific gravity is a unitless ratio

18. Fluids at rest • For a fluid at rest (static equilibrium) the pressure is called hydrostatic • For a horizontal-base cylindrical water sample in a container

19. Fluids at rest • The hydrostatic pressure at a point in a fluid depends on the depth of that point but not on any horizontal dimension of the fluid or its container • Difference between an absolute pressure and an atmospheric pressure is called the gauge pressure

20. Measuring pressure • Mercury barometer • Open-tube manometer

21. Chapter 9 Problem 19 A collapsible plastic bag contains a glucose solution. If the average gauge pressure in the vein is 1.33 × 103 Pa, what must be the minimum height h of the bag in order to infuse glucose into the vein? Assume that the specific gravity of the solution is 1.02.

22. Pascal’s principle • Pascal’s principle: A change in the pressure applied to an enclosed incompressible fluid is transmitted undiminished to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of its container • Hydraulic lever • With a hydraulic lever, a given force applied over a given distance can be transformed to a greater force applied over a smaller distance

23. Archimedes of Syracuse (287-212 BCE) • Archimedes’ principle • Buoyant force: • For imaginary void in a fluid • p at the bottom > p at the top • Archimedes’ principle: when a body is submerged in a fluid, a buoyant force from the surrounding fluid acts on the body. The force is directed upward and has a magnitude equal to the weight of the fluid that has been displaced by the body

24. Archimedes’ principle • Sinking: • Floating: • Apparent weight: • If the object is floating at the surface of a fluid, the magnitude of the buoyant force (equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the body) is equal to the magnitude of the gravitational force on the body

25. Chapter 9 Problem 34 A light spring of force constant k = 160 N/m rests vertically on the bottom of a large beaker of water. A 5.00-kg block of wood (density = 650 kg/m3) is connected to the spring, and the block–spring system is allowed to come to static equilibrium. What is the elongation ΔL of the spring?

26. Motion of ideal fluids • Flow of an ideal fluid: • Steady (laminar) – the velocity of the moving fluid at any fixed point does not change with time (either in magnitude or direction) • Incompressible – density is constant and uniform • Nonviscous – the fluid experiences no drag force • Irrotational – in this flow the test body will not rotate about its center of mass

27. Equation of continuity • For a steady flow of an ideal fluid through a tube with varying cross-section Equation of continuity

28. Daniel Bernoulli (1700 - 1782) • Bernoulli’s equation • For a steady flow of an ideal fluid: • Kinetic energy • Gravitational potential energy • Internal (“pressure”) energy

29. Bernoulli’s equation • Total energy

30. Chapter 9 Problem 43 A hypodermic syringe contains a medicine having the density of water. The barrel of the syringe has a cross-sectional area A = 2.50 × 10-5 m2, and the needle has a cross-sectional area a = 1.00 × 10-8 m2. In the absence of a force on the plunger, the pressure everywhere is 1 atm. A force F of magnitude 2.00 N acts on the plunger, making medicine squirt horizontally from the needle. Determine the speed of the medicine as it leaves the needle’s tip.

31. Surface tension • Net force on molecule A is zero, because it is pulled equally in all directions • Net force on B is not zero, because no molecules above to act on it • It is pulled toward the center of the fluid

32. Surface tension • The net effect of this pull on all the surface molecules is to make the surface of the liquid contract • Makes the surface area of the liquid as small as possible – surface tension

33. Surface tension • Surface tension: the ratio of the magnitude of the surface tension force to the length along which the force acts: • SI units are N/m • Surface tension of liquids decreases with increasing temperature • Surface tension can be decreased by adding ingredients called surfactants to a liquid (e.g., a detergent)

34. Liquid surfaces • Cohesive forces are forces between like molecules, adhesive forces are forces between unlike molecules • The shape of the surface depends upon the relative strength of the cohesive and adhesive forces • If adhesive forces are greater than cohesive forces, the liquid clings to the walls of the container and “wets” the surface

35. Liquid surfaces • Cohesive forces are forces between like molecules, adhesive forces are forces between unlike molecules • The shape of the surface depends upon the relative strength of the cohesive and adhesive forces • If cohesive forces are greater than adhesive forces, the liquid curves downward and does not “wet” the surface

36. Contact angle • If cohesive forces are greater than adhesive forces, Φ > 90° • If adhesive forces are greater than cohesive forces, Φ < 90°

37. Capillary action • Capillary action is the result of surface tension and adhesive forces • The liquid rises in the tube when adhesive forces are greater than cohesive forces

38. Capillary action • Capillary action is the result of surface tension and adhesive forces • The level of the fluid in the tube is below the surface of the surrounding fluid if cohesive forces are greater than adhesive forces

39. Viscous fluid flow • Viscosity: friction between the layers of a fluid • Layers in a viscous fluid have different velocities • The velocity is greatest at the center • Cohesive forces between the fluid and the walls slow down the fluid on the outside
