FLUID MECHANICS AND HYDRAULIC MACHINES
PART A QUESTIONS
® Module 1: Fluid Properties & Pressure Measurement
1. Fill in the Blanks
1, The property of a fluid that enables it to resist shear stress is called . (Viscosity)
2. The ratio of the weight of a given volume of fluid to the weight of an equal volume of water
is called . (Specific Gravity)
3. The S/ unit of pressure is - (Pascal or N/m?)
4. Pascal's law states that the pressure at any point in a confined fluid is transmitted in
all directions. (Equally)
5. The pressure exerted by a column of liquid of height ‘h’ is given by (P=pghP = \rhog
hP=pgh)
6. The instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure is called - (Barometer)
7. The pressure below atmospheric pressure is called - (Vacuum pressure)
8. The device used to measure small pressure differences in fluids is called - (Differential
manometer)
9. Absolute pressure is the sum of and - (Gauge pressure and Atmospheric
pressure)
10. The unit of dynamic viscosity in SI system is {Pascal-second or N-s/m?)
2. One-Word Questions
11. Which pressure is measured above atmospheric pressure? (Gauge pressure)
12. Name the property that causes liquid drops to form spherical shapes. (Surface tension)
13. What Is the value of atmospheric pressure at sea level in kPa? (101.325 kPa)
14. Which instrument is used for measuring very high pressures in hydraulic machines?
(Bourdon pressure gauge)
1S. Which principle states that "an external force applied to a confined liquid is transmitted
equally in all directions"? (Pascal's Law)——E——==————
