Define density.
Density is defined as the mass of a substance per unit volume.
If a fluid element enclosing a point P has a volume dV and dm , then the density is given by r = lim dV - 0 (dm / dV) = (dm / dV) The unit of density is kg/m3 .

The specific weight of the liquid = 9810 x 1.527 = 14979.8 N/m3.
Density of the liquid ( r ) = 14979.8 / 9.81 = 1527 kg/ m3.
Specific volume of liquid = 1 /r = 1 / 1527 = 6.54 x 10 –4 m3/kg.
Define viscosity.
The viscosity can be defined as the property of fluid which resist relative motion of its adjacent layers. It is the measure of internal fluid friction due to which there is resistance to flow, The unit of viscosity is Ns/m2.
State Newton’s law of viscosity. (AU-MQP)
The shear stress on a fluid element layer is directly proportional to the rate of strain (or) velocity gradient, the constant of proportionality being called the coefficient of viscosity.
t a (du / dy) shear stress ( t ) = m (du / dy)
what is real fluid ? Give examples. (AU-M03).
The fluids in reality have viscosity m > 0 hence they are termed as real fluids and their motion is known as viscous flow. (ex) Air , water, kerosene, blood, milk
Why are some fluids are classified as Newtonian fluid ? Give examples of Newtonian fluids. (AU-N02).
The fluids, which obey Newton’s law of viscosity are known as Newtonian fluids. For these fluids, there is a linear relationship between shear stress and velocity gradient. (ex) Air, water, kerosene.
What is a Tthyxotropic fluid ? (AU- N 03)
If the viscosity increases with time the fluid is said to be a Thyxotropic fluid. (ex) Lipstick, paints enamels, crude oil.

What is compressibility of fluid ?
Compressibility of substance is the measure of its change in volume under the action of external forces, namely, the normal compressive forces. The measure of compressibility of the fluid is the bulk modulus of elasticity (K)
K = lim DV - 0 (- DP) / (DV/V) The unit of compressibility is N/m2
Assuming the bulk modulus of elasticity of water is 2.07 x 106 kN/m2 at standard atmospheric condition. Determine the increase of pressure necessary to produce one percent reduction in volume at same temperature. (AU-N02)
Bulk modulus of elasticity K = 2.07 x 106 kN/m2 - (dV/V) = 1% = 0.01
K = - dP / (dV/V) \ Increase in pressure dP = -(dV/V) x K
= 0.01 x 2.07 x 106 = 20700 kN/m2.
What is meant by vapor pressure of a liquid ?
Liquids evaporate because of molecule s escaping from the liquid surface. These vapor molecules exert a partial pressure on the surface of the liquid known as vapour pressure.
What is cavitation ?
In flowing fluid, if the pressure is equal to or less than the saturated vapor pressure, the liquid boil locally and produce vapor bubbles. These bubbles collapse in the high pressure region causing a partial vaccum. This phenomenon in known as cavitation.
Define surface tension and mention its unit.
A free surface of the liquid is always under stretched condition implying the existence of tensile force on the surface. The magnitude of this force per unit length of an imaginary line drawn along the liquid surface is known as surface tension. The unit of surface tension is N/m.
Define capillarity. (AU-M04)
Capillary implies the raise or depression of liquid in a capillary tube where it is held vertically or inclined in the liquid.
Define the pressure and mention its unit.
If the fluid is stationary, then the force (dF) exerted by the fluid on the area is normal to the surface (dA). This normal force per unit area is called pressure..
P = ( dF / dA) The unit of pressure is N/m2.
