Study Guide Overview

This study guide covers fluid dynamics with a focus on conservation laws. Key concepts include: fluid flow, pressure differences, the continuity equation, gravitational potential energy, Bernoulli's equation, and Torricelli's theorem. Practice questions and exam tips are provided for applying these concepts to calculate velocities, pressures, and flow rates in various scenarios.

Question 1 of 12

A fluid is flowing through a pipe. If there is a pressure difference between two points in the pipe, what will be the direction of the fluid flow? ๐ŸŒŠ

From low pressure to high pressure

From high pressure to low pressure

No flow will occur if there is any pressure difference

The flow direction is independent of pressure difference
