| Which of the following in NOT a liquid? Air, Gasoline, Cork, Water | Cork |
| The pressure of a fluid at a specific depth... | Depends only on the type of fluid |
| What is the pressure of air at sea level? | 101kPa |
| Which principle states that a change in pressure at any point in a fluid in a closed container is transmitted equally and unchanged in all directions throughout the fluid? | Pascals principle |
| The operation of a hydraulic lift is explained by which principle? | Pascals |
| The hydraulic system of a dump truck is designed to multiply | Force |
| Which principle states that as the speed of a fluid increases, the pressure within the fluid decreases? | Bernoulli's Principle |
| What is the upward force acting on the wing of an airplane in flight called? | Lift |
| What is the upward force acting on an object submerged in a fluid called? | Buoyant force |
| A brick weighs 21N. measured underwater, it weighs 12N. What is the size of the buoyant force exerted by the water on the brick? | 9N |
| The strength of the buoyant force acting on an object in a fluid depends on the objects... | Volume |
| The buoyant force on an object in a fluid is equal to the weight of the... | Fluid displaced by the object. |
| A ball is floating partially submerged in a liquid. The buoyant force acting on the balls equals the... | Weight of the ball. |
| A substance that flows and assumes the shape of its container is a _____ | Fluid |
| As a liquid is added to a beaker, the pressure exerted by the liquid on the bottom of the beaker _________ | Increases |
| The pressure exerted by a fluid at any given depth is exerted _______ in all directions. | Equally |
| A hydraulic jack is an example of _______ principle. | Pascals |
| As the speed of a fluid increases, the _________ within the fluid decreases. | Pressure |
| The downward force produced when air flows over the wing-like spoiler on a race car is an example of ____________ principle | Bernoulli's |
| The direction of the buoyant force on an object placed in a fluid is ______ | Upward |
| Even a rock at the bottom of a lake has a ___________ force acting upward on it. | Buoyant |
| The unit g/cm^3 is often used to express _______ | Density |
| A submerged submarine alters its ________ to rise or fall in the water. | Density |
| For a fluid that is not moving, what are the two factors that determine the pressure that the fluid exerts? | Depth and the type of fluid. |
| Why aren't organisms that live on the seafloor crushed by water pressure? | Most organisms on the seafloor are mostly water and they have a high internal pressure. |
| Why does a partially inflated weather balloon expand as it rises? | air pressure decreases with altitude. |
| On what principle are hydraulic systems based? | Pascals principle. |
| A ball of clay sinks when placed in water. The same piece of clay floats if it is made into the shape of a boat. Compare the volume of the water displaced by the ball with the volume displaced by the boat shape. | The boat displaces a greater volume of water than the ball. |
| Compare the size and direction of the lift on a plane with its weight as it flies at a constant speed and altitude. | The lift and weight would have to be the same in order to keep a constant speed and altitude. |
| When you weight yourself on a bathroom scale, what buoyant force affects the weight reading? | buoyant force of the atmosphere. |
| If you use a spring scaled to measure the weight of a submerged object that has neutral buoyancy, what will the scale read? | Zero Newtons |
| Compare the weight of an object to the buoyant force acting on it if the object sinks in the fluid. | If the object sinks then the buoyant force would be less than the weight |
