An Introduction to Hydrostatics

An Introduction to Hydrostatics When in equilibrium, liquid applies energy to its container or any other material it comes in contact with. These fall into 2 types, hydrostatic load or outside force. When pushing against a level wall, the fluid applies equal force at different points on the wall. When an subject is thoroughly submersed in a liquid, vertical force is applied to the object at each point.Introduction Hydrostatics 80861088.jpg This applied force is known as buoyancy, while the principle itself is known as Archimedes’ principle. Generally speaking, hydrostatic pressure on a point of liquid is a product of the hydrostatic force exerted on it. The containers that make up a city’s fountains, wells, and its water supply system are applications of these principles.
