    Study Notes

    Pressure-Volume Relationship

    • Boyle's law states that pressure and volume of a gas are inversely related at constant temperature.
    • When the volume of a gas decreases, its pressure increases, and vice versa.

    Viscosity

    • The SI unit of viscosity is the Pascal-second (Pa·s).
    • Viscosity measures a fluid's resistance to deformation or flow.

    Flow Rate Calculation

    • The flow rate of a fluid through a pipe is calculated using the formula:
      • Flow Rate (Q) = Area (A) × Velocity (v).
    • Area is the cross-sectional area of the pipe, while velocity is the speed of the fluid.

    Moment of Inertia

    • Moment of inertia quantifies an object's resistance to rotational motion.
    • It is dependent on the mass distribution relative to the axis of rotation and has units of kg·m².

    Torque in Rotational Dynamics

    • Torque is a measure of the force that causes an object to rotate about an axis.
    • It is calculated as: Torque (τ) = Force (F) × Distance (d) × sin(θ), where θ is the angle between the force and the lever arm.

    Angular Momentum

    • Angular momentum is the rotational equivalent of linear momentum.
    • It is calculated as: Angular Momentum (L) = Moment of Inertia (I) × Angular Velocity (ω).
    • It is conserved in an isolated system unless acted upon by an external torque.
