Mechanical Properties of Fluids — Class 11 CBSE Physics revision notes
A 4-page visual revision sheet for Mechanical Properties of Fluids, written for Class 11 CBSE Physics. Formulas, diagrams and the traps that cost marks, laid out to be read the night before rather than the term before. Free, and it opens inside CapCompass.
What this Mechanical Properties of Fluids sheet covers
- Pressure in a fluid
- Pressure and depth
- absolute pressure at depth h
- gauge pressure
- difference between two depths
- Pascal's law and the hydraulic lift
- pressure applied at one piston is felt equally at the other
- force at the wide piston
- the pistons still trade equal work
- Force at a hydraulic press
- Archimedes' principle and floating
- Streamline flow and the equation of continuity
- Bernoulli's equation
- along one streamline, ideal fluid
- horizontal pipe, h fixed
- fluid at rest, v = 0
- Viscosity
- Stokes' law and terminal velocity
- viscous drag on a falling sphere
- terminal velocity, sphere ρ in a fluid σ
- Surface tension
- Excess pressure across a curved surface
- Excess pressure, the numbers
- inside a liquid drop, one surface
- inside a soap bubble, two surfaces
- inside an air bubble in a liquid
- Wetting and the angle of contact
- Capillary rise
- rise (or fall) in a fine tube of radius r
- Symbols
- Traps that cost marks
- Tricks that save time
How CapCompass uses this sheet
These notes are not a standalone PDF. CapCompass plans Physics chapter by chapter against your real exam dates and free hours, and when the plan reaches Mechanical Properties of Fluids the sheet opens inside the study block itself — at the page covering the sub-topic that block is on, with the timer still running. Revision arrives at the moment the plan says revise, instead of having to be gone looking for.
