Chapter 9 Solids and Fluids

States of Matter n n Solid Liquid Gas Plasma

Solids n n n Has definite volume Has definite shape Molecules are held in specific locations n n n by electrical forces vibrate about equilibrium positions Can be modeled as springs connecting molecules

Crystalline Solid n n Atoms have an ordered structure This example is salt n n Gray spheres represent Na+ ions Green spheres represent Cl- ions

Amorphous Solid n n Atoms are arranged almost randomly Examples include glass

Liquid n n Has a definite volume But no definite shape Exists at a higher temperature than solids The molecules “wander” through the liquid in a random fashion n The intermolecular forces are not strong enough to keep the molecules in a fixed position

Gas n n n Has no definite volume And has no 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

Plasma n n Matter heated to a very high temperature Many of the electrons are freed from the nucleus (ionization) Result is a collection of free, electrically charged ions Plasmas exist inside stars and in space

Deformation of Solids n n n All objects are deformable It is possible to change the shape or size (or both) of an object through the application of external forces When the forces are removed, the object tends to its original shape n This is a deformation that exhibits elastic behavior

Elastic Properties n n n Stress is the force per unit area causing the deformation (Stress = Force/Area) Strain is a measure of the amount of deformation (Strain = Change/Original) The elastic modulus is the constant of proportionality (or connection) between stress and strain n n For sufficiently small stresses, the stress is directly proportional to the strain The constant of proportionality depends on the material being deformed and the nature of the deformation

Elastic Modulus n The elastic modulus can be thought of as the stiffness of the material n A material with a large elastic modulus is very stiff and difficult to deform n n Like the spring constant stress = Elastic modulus x strain

Young’s Modulus: Elasticity in Length n Tensile stress is the ratio of the external force to the crosssectional area n Tensile is because the bar is under tension

Elastic Limit n n Young’s modulus applies to a stress of either tension or compression It is possible to exceed the elastic limit of the material n n No longer directly proportional Ordinarily does not return to its original length

Shear Modulus: Elasticity of Shape n n n Forces may be parallel to one of the object’s faces The stress is called a shear stress The shear strain is the ratio of the horizontal displacement and the height of the object

Shear Modulus Equation n S is the shear modulus A material having a large shear modulus is difficult to bend

Bulk Modulus n n Bulk modulus characterizes the response of an object to uniform squeezing Volume stress, ∆P, is the ratio of the force to the surface area n n This is also the Pressure The volume strain is equal to the ratio of the change in volume to the original volume

Bulk Modulus Equation n n A material with a large bulk modulus is difficult to compress The negative sign is included since an increase in pressure will produce a decrease in volume n n B is always positive The compressibility is the reciprocal of the bulk modulus

Notes on Moduli n n Solids have Young’s, Bulk, and Shear moduli Liquids have only bulk moduli, they will not undergo a shearing or tensile stress n The liquid would flow instead

Density n n n The density of a substance of uniform composition is defined as its mass per unit volume: Units are kg/m 3 (SI) or g/cm 3 (cgs) 1 g/cm 3 = 1000 kg/m 3 The densities of most liquids and solids vary slightly with temperature and pressure Densities of gases vary greatly with changes in temperature and pressure

Pressure n The force exerted by a fluid on a submerged object at any point if perpendicular to the surface of the object

Pressure and Depth n n If a fluid is at rest in a container, all portions of it must be in static equilibrium All points at the same depth must be at the same pressure n n Otherwise, the fluid would not be in equilibrium Consider darker region: Three external forces act on the region

Pressure and Depth equation n n Po is normal atmospheric pressure n n 1. 013 x 105 Pa = 14. 7 lb/in 2 The pressure does not depend upon the shape of the container

Quick Quiz The pressure at the bottom of a glass filled with water ( =1000 kg/m 3) is P. The water is poured out, and the glass filled with ethyl alcohol ( =806 kg/m 3). Now the pressure at the bottom of the glass is 1. 2. 3. 4. Smaller than P Larger than P Equal to P Indeterminate

Pascal’s Principle n A change in pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished to every point of the fluid and to the walls of the container. n First recognized by Blaise Pascal, a French scientist (1623 – 1662)

Pascal’s Principle, cont n n The hydraulic press is an important application of Pascal’s Principle Also used in hydraulic brakes, forklifts, car lifts, etc.

Car Lift n n At a service station, compressed air exerts a force F 1 on a piston of circular cross-section r 1. The pressure is transmitted through an incompressible fluid to a second piston of r 2. Show that the work done by the input and output pistons is the same.

Absolute vs. Gauge Pressure n The pressure P is called the absolute pressure n n Remember, P = Po + gh P – Po = gh is the gauge pressure

Pressure Values in Various Units n n One atmosphere of pressure is defined as the pressure equivalent to a column of mercury exactly 0. 76 m tall at 0 o C where g = 9. 806 65 m/s 2 One atmosphere (1 atm) = n n n 76. 0 cm of mercury 1. 013 x 105 Pa 14. 7 lb/in 2

Archimedes' Principle Any object completely or partially submerged in a fluid is buoyed up by a force whose magnitude is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.

Buoyant Force n n The upward force is called the buoyant force The physical cause of the buoyant force is the pressure difference between the top and the bottom of the object

More Buoyant Force n n The magnitude of the buoyant force always equals the weight of the displaced fluid The buoyant force is the same for a totally submerged object of any size, shape, or density

Archimedes’ Principle: Totally Submerged Object n n n The upward buoyant force is B= fluidg. Vobj The downward gravitational force is w=mg= objg. Vobj The net force is B-w=( fluid- obj)g. Vobj

Rising and Sinking

Archimedes’ Principle: Floating Object n n The forces balance

Example n n You buy a gold crown and want to know if it is really gold. It’s weight is 7. 84 N. In water, the weight is 6. 86 N. Is it gold?

Fluids in Motion: Streamlines n Streamline flow n n n Every particle that passes a particular point moves exactly along the smooth path followed by particles that passed the point earlier Also called laminar flow Streamline is the path n n Different streamlines cannot cross each other The streamline at any point coincides with the direction of fluid velocity at that point

Streamline Flow Streamline flow shown around an auto in a wind tunnel

Fluids in Motion: Turbulent Flow n The flow becomes irregular n n n exceeds a certain velocity any condition that causes abrupt changes in velocity Eddy currents are a characteristic of turbulent flow

Turbulent Flow n The rotating blade (dark area) forms a vortex in heated air n n The wick of the burner is at the bottom Turbulent air flow occurs on both sides of the blade

Characteristics of an Ideal Fluid n The fluid is nonviscous n n The fluid is incompressible n n Its density is constant The fluid motion is steady n n There is no internal friction between adjacent layers Its velocity, density, and pressure do not change in time The fluid moves without turbulence n n No eddy currents are present The elements have zero angular velocity about its center

Equation of Continuity n n A 1 v 1 = A 2 v 2 The product of the cross-sectional area of a pipe and the fluid speed is a constant n n Speed is high where the pipe is narrow and speed is low where the pipe has a large diameter Av is called the flow rate

Bernoulli’s Equation n States that the sum of the pressure, kinetic energy per unit volume, and the potential energy per unit volume has the same value at all points along a streamline

Application – Golf Ball n n The dimples in the golf ball help move air along its surface The ball pushes the air down Newton’s Third Law tells us the air must push up on the ball The spinning ball travels farther than if it were not spinning

Application – Airplane Wing n n n The air speed above the wing is greater than the speed below The air pressure above the wing is less than the air pressure below There is a net upward force n n Called lift Other factors are also involved

Hole in a Tank n Consider a tank with a hole. The top is open to the atmosphere. n n Determine the speed at which water leaves the hole if it is 0. 500 m below the water level. Where does the stream hit the ground if the hole is 3. 00 m above the ground?
