Que.5Define pressure &. State its SI unit.
Read free for 30 days
Ans: Pressure at a point due to a liquid is defined as the force acting per
unit area.
SI unit :- N/m2
Que.6 State Pascal’s law of fluid pressure

Ans:- Pascal’s Law:-Pascal’s Law states that the pressure or intensity of
pressure at a point in a static fluid is equal in all directions.
Que.7 State Pascal's law & its practical application

Ans: Pascal’s Law: - Pascal’s aw states that the pressure or intensity of
pressure at a point in a static fluid is equal in all directions
Application: - Law is applied in the construction of machines used
for multiplying forces e.g.
hydraulic jack, hydraulic pressure, hydraulic lift, hydraulic crane,
hydraulic river, etc.
Applications of Pascal law:- It is applied in the construction of
machines used for multiplying forces e.g.
I. Hydraulic Jacks,
II. Hydraulic Press,
III. Hydraulic Lifts,
IV. Hydraulic Crane
V. Braking system of motor
VI. Artesian well

Que.8 State any two applications of hydraulics with respect to Irrigation .
Ans: Applications of hydraulics with respect to Irrigation are as follows-
I. To calculate discharge flowing through canal.
II. For distribution of equal water for city or agriculture purpose using
water meter.
III. To determine velocity of flow at a point in open channel.
IV. The total pressure and Centre of pressure acting on dam face at
the point the resultant cuts the base of the can be determined.
V. Spillway can also designed to pass off water on D/S of a dam
Que.9 State the Newton‘s law of viscosity and give example of its
application.
Ans: Statement:-
Newton’s law states that “shear stress in fluid layers is directly
proportional to velocity gradient”.
Mathematically,
Where,
τ = Shear stress.
μ = dynamic viscosity.
= velocity gradient.
Example of Application:-
1. To design pipe.
OR
Newton’s law of viscosity- it states that, shear stress on a fluid layer is
directly proportional to the rate of shear strain.
Unit of dynamic viscosity (μ) = Ns/m2

Search Topic 2: Hydrostatic Pressure

Contents :
Definition of pressure and its SI Unit. Hydrostatic pressure at a point in fluid, Pascal’s law
of fluid pressure. Variation of pressure in static liquid, Pressure diagram – concept and
use.
Total hydrostatic pressure and center of pressure-Determination of total pressure and
center of pressure on vertical, inclined and horizontal plane surfaces in contact with
liquid and horizontal plane surfaces in contact with liquid faces of dams, sides and
bottom of water tanks sides and bottom of tanks containing two liquids. Vertical surface
in contact with liquid on either side. Numerical Problems on all cases above.
Que.1State ‘Pascal Law’ of liquid pressure

Ans: Statement-“Pascal s law state that at a point in a fluid at rest I
‟
ntensity pressure acts equally in all direction”.

Explanation: - consider one particle of a liquid on a jar the pressure
exerted on that point all direction is same.
Que.2What is the principle of manometer?
Ans: Manometer measure the pressure at a point in fluid by balancing

the column of fluid by same or another column of fluid.
Que.3Define total pressure.
Total Pressure:-Total pressure is defined as the force exerted by a static

fluid on a surface either plane or curved when the fluid in contact with
the surfaces
Que.4 Define total hydrostatic pressure and Centre of pressure. Draw

diagram to describe it.
Ans: Total hydrostatic pressure – It is the force exerted by a static fluid on

a surface plane or curved. This force is always perpendicular to the
surface.
Centre of pressure- It is the point at which total pressure acts on the

surface.

Total pressure P = 1/ 2 wH
Centre of pressure = H/3 from bottom
Pressure intensity at top of wall = zero
Pressure intensity at bottom of wall = wH
Que.5How will you measure negative pressure?

Ans: By using U Tube manometer: it is an instrument that measure
negative pressure.
Pressure head on lift limb = pressure head on right limb above z-z
dat
hA + h1 s1 + h2 s2 = 0
hA = - (h1 s1 + h2 s2)

Que.6How will you measure negative pressure?
Ans: Mercury in the U-tube is deflected by h2 due pressure at point A,as
deflection occurs in the left limb indicates that, pressure at A is
negative (vacuum), pressure above the horizontal datum x-x in the
left and right limb of the manometer should be same
Pressure above x-x in the left limb = S1h2 + S1h1 + PA--------------------

Pressure above x-x in the right limb = 0
PA = - ( S1h2 + S1h1 )------------------------------------------------------------------
Que.7State any four different between simple and different manometers

U- tube differential manometer U- tube inverted differential
manometer
1) It is a device used for measuring 1) It is a device used for measuring the
the difference of pressure difference of pressure between two
between two points in a pipe points in a pipe
2) A differential U-tube 2) A differential U-tube manometer
manometer consists of regular U- consists of inverted U- tube
tube
3) It contains heavy measuring 3) It contains lighter measuring liquid
liquid than flowing liquid. than flowing liquid
4) This type of monometer 4) This type of monometer measures
measures positive pressure Negative pressure difference

Que.8 Explain the concept and use of pressure diagram with neat
sketches
Ans: Concept: - Consider a wall subjected to water pressure as shown in

fig. (a), pressure at base is (γ h ) and at the water surface its zero.
Hence the pressure diagram is a triangle.
The total pressure on the wall = Area of triangle
Use:-
1) To calculate pressure by liquid on the side of surface.
2) To Calculate of pressure of liquid on both side of the

surface.
