This lecture covers the principles of mass, momentum, and energy balances in fluid dynamics, focusing on a fluid in motion on a solid surface. It explains the calculation of forces exerted by the fluid, the flow of momentum through a control volume, and the balance of external forces. The lecture also discusses the concept of free jets, choice of control volumes, and the forces exerted by fixed and movable components in a fluid system.
