AP Physics 2 Solid and Fluid
The flow rate through the pipe is a constant, which is equivalent to stating that
the product of the cross-sectional area A and the speed v at any point is Stress is related to the force per unit area producing a deformation; strain is a
constant. Definition AP Physics 2 Solid and Fluid measure of the amount of deformation. Stress is proportional to strain, and
Equation of Continuity the constant of proportionality is the elastic modulus.
Formula 9.3 The Deformation of Solids Formula Stress = elastic modulus * strain
The sum of the pressure, the kinetic energy per unit volume, and the potential
energy per unit volume is the same at any two points along a streamline. Definition 9.7 Fluids in Motion
The pressure in an incompressible fluid varies with depth h
Bernoulli' s equation according to the expression:
Formula
Pascal’s principle states that when pressure is applied to an enclosed fluid,
9.4 Variation of Pressure with Depth the pressure is transmitted undiminished to every point of the fluid and to the
walls of the containing vessel.
