Answer 1

any material that can flow and takes the shape of it’s container

Question 2

pressure

the amount of force exerted per unit area of a surface

Question 3

pascal

Answer 3

the SI init of pressure

Question 4

atmospheric pressure

Answer 4

the pressure caused by the weight of the atmosphere

Question 5

buoyant force

Answer 5

the upward force that fluids exert on all matter

Question 6

Archimedes’ principle

Answer 6

states that the buoyant force on an object in a fluid is an upward force equal to the weight of the fluid that the object takes place of

Question 7

Bernoulli’s principle

Answer 7

states that the speed of a moving fluid increases, the fluid’s pressure decreses

Question 8

lift

Answer 8

an upward force on an object that moves in a fluid

thrust

Answer 9

the pushing or pulling force exerted by the engine of an aircraft or rocket

Question 10

drag

Answer 10

the force that opposes or restricts motion in a fluid

Question 11

Pascal’s principle

Answer 11

states that a change in pressure at any point in an enclosed fluid will be transmitted equally to all parts to that fluid.
