Properties
• Fluids are the sustances which can flow e.g.,
liquids and gases.
• The atoms or molecules in a fluid are arranged in
a random manner.
• It does not possess definite shape on its own. So
fluids has no modulus of rigidity.
• A fluid cannot withstand shearing stress since it
begins to flow.
• A fluid can exert / withstand a force in a direction
perpendicular to its surface. So it has bulk
modulus of rigidity
