Hydrostatic panel with thrust, fluids
Function
Intended for experimental study, physics laboratory work, and conducting physics experiments on: Hydrostatics. The pressure at a point in a liquid in equilibrium, Stevin's principle. Measuring pressure in an open-tube manometer. Stevin's principle, the fundamental principle of hydrostatics. Pascal's principle. Based on Pascal and the principle that bears his name. Calculation of gauge pressure. The measurement of pressure in mmH2O indicated by the open-tube manometer. Converting pressure units from mmH2O to Pa and N/m2. An important application of Pascal's principle, the hydraulic press. Buoyancy, experimental verification. The vertical force acting on bodies submerged in fluids, called buoyancy force. Archimedes' principle. What is meant by fluid. The weight of the volume of water displaced. Determining the density of a liquid from the buoyancy in a mixture of water and salt, etc.
