Characteristics of fluids.
fluids take shape of container.
gasses fill the container they are in.
solids
have definite shape and volume
force of attraction is really strong that particles are locked in one place.
liquids
particles are further than solids.
attraction is strong enough to hold the liquid together.
gasses
attraction is really low.
spread out and fill container
Ability to Flow.
another characteristic fluids have.
can flow anywhere since they're free to move around.
some solids such as ice glaciers are fluid solids.
they are uncommon.
Types of flow
Laminar flow
smooth and regular
allow fluids to move quick with more energy.
Reduced drag makes boat more efficient.
Turbulence Flow.
choppy and irregular
provides a thrilling ride and currents can be used for suture energy.
turbulence can also happen in our body.
is unhealthy if happens
Taming Turbulence
streamlined objects creates laminar flow.
fluid flow can create problems as well as solve them.
it can create riverbanks when it rains.
