  8. Physical Properties of Water Density = 1 g/cm3 = 1 kg / liter Specific Gravity = 1.000 @ 3.98oC Specific Heat = 1 cal / gram oC= 1 Btu / lb oF Heat of Fusion = 80 cal / gram = 144 Btu / lb Heat of Vaporization = 540 cal / gram = 970 Btu / lb

  9. Weight and Pressure Equilibrium tubes Crush the can using atmospheric pressure

  10. Quiz question: What animal has the highest blood pressure? Mammal, fish, bird, or reptile?

  11. Quiz question: What animal has the highest blood pressure? Quiz answer: The giraffe!!

  12. Pascal’s Law Pressure is distributed uniformly throughout a confined fluid. Hero’s Fountain (Hero of Alexandria)

  13. Buoyancy and Archimedes’ Law An object immersed in a fluid experiences a buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced.
