Question
Answer
Fluid   A substance that has no fixed shape and yields easily to external pressure; a gas or (esp.) a liquid.  
🗑
Archimedes Principle   a law of physics stating that the apparent upward force (buoyancy) of a body immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.  
🗑
Buoyant   The tendency or capacity to remain afloat in a liquid or rise in air or gas. The upward force that a fluid exerts on an object less dense than itself.  
🗑
Elasticity   the tendency of a body to return to its original shape after it has been stretched or compressed  
🗑
Specific Heat   The heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount  
🗑
Amorphous   Without a clearly defined shape or form.  
🗑
Crystalline   Having the structure and form of a crystal; composed of crystals.  
🗑
Strength   Physical power and energy:  
🗑
Bernoulli's Principle   The principle in hydrodynamics that an increase in the velocity of a stream of fluid results in a decrease in pressure.  
🗑
Density   The degree of compactness of a substance: "bone density".  
🗑
Malleability   the property of being physically malleable; the property of something that can be worked or hammered or shaped without breaking.  
🗑
Brittleness   firm but easily broken.  
🗑
Ductility   the malleability of something that can be drawn into threads or wires or hammered into thin sheets.  
🗑
Pressure   The continuous physical force exerted on or against an object by something in contact with it.  
🗑
