Lecture

Fluid Mechanics: Concepts and Applications

Description

This lecture introduces key concepts of fluid mechanics, covering historical experiments, forces due to pressure difference, classification of matter, Eulerian description, conservation laws, Venturi effect, Bernoulli equation, and Newton's law. The instructor emphasizes the similarities between fluid mechanics and electromagnetism concepts. Students will learn about forces in fluids, buoyancy, pressure variation, and isotropic pressure distribution. Practical applications such as hydraulic lifts are also discussed.
