Physics 101 2014 w term 1 schedule, syllabus, learning goals, homework. Text: physics for scientists and engineers: an interactive approach by. Describe macroscopic and microscopic differences between solids, liquids, and gases. Explain and contrast how pressure changes as a function of position in a liquid and a gas. Calculate pressure at any point inside a static liquid. Describe how manometers and barometers are used to measure pressure. Explain what the upper and lower values in blood pressure measurements mean. State pascal"s principle and apply this principle to basic hydraulic systems. Define buoyancy and explain why an upward force is exerted on an object immersed in a fluid. Use archimedes" principle to determine the buoyant force on an object. Calculate buoyant forces on floating and immersed objects. Distinguish the true weight and apparent weight of an object in a fluid. Ch 13: 2, 4 (horizontal mass- spring systems) Use the idea of conservation to derive the equation of continuity.
