Description |
| density | r = m/V | Ratio of an object's mass to its volume |
| specific gravity | SG = robject/rwater | Ratio of the density of the substance to the density of pure water |
| pressure | P = F/A | Ratio of the force acting perpendicular to a surface to the surface area (A) |
| fluid pressure | P = r g h | Gauge pressure as a function of depth (h) |
| Archimedes' Principle | FB = mfg = rfgVf | Buoyant force acting on an object placed in a fluid |
| equation of continuity | rAv = constant | Mass of fluid moving past any point is constant |
| volume flow rate | R = vA | Volume of fluid that passes a point per unit time |
| Bernoulli's equation | P = (1/2)rv2 + rgh | Equation for the pressure at any point in a moving fluid |
