What is Fluid Mechanics?

Fluid dynamics is “the branch of applied science that is concerned with the movement of liquids and gases”. It involves a wide range of applications such as calculating force & moments, determining the mass flow rate of petroleum through pipelines, predicting weather patterns, understanding nebulae in interstellar space, and modelling fission weapon detonation.

What are the Applications of Fluid Dynamics?

Fluid Dynamics can be applied in the following ways: Fluid dynamics is used to calculate the forces acting upon the aeroplane. It is used to find the flow rates of material such as petroleum from pipelines. It can also be used in traffic engineering (traffic treated as continuous liquid flow).

How to Calculate Specific Weight of Substance?

Specific Weight of Substance calculator uses Specific Weight = Density*[g] to calculate the Specific Weight, The Specific Weight of Substance formula is defined as the product of density of substance and acceleration due to gravity. Weight is a force. The SI unit for specific weight is [N/m^3]. Densities of liquids are essentially constant, and thus they can often be approximated as being incompressible substances during most processes without sacrificing much in accuracy. Specific Weight is denoted by γ_s symbol.

How to calculate Specific Weight of Substance using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Specific Weight of Substance, enter Density (ρ) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Specific Weight of Substance calculation can be explained with given input values -> 3.829261 = 0.390476*[g].

FAQ

What is Specific Weight of Substance?

The Specific Weight of Substance formula is defined as the product of density of substance and acceleration due to gravity. Weight is a force. The SI unit for specific weight is [N/m^3]. Densities of liquids are essentially constant, and thus they can often be approximated as being incompressible substances during most processes without sacrificing much in accuracy and is represented as γ_s = ρ*[g] or Specific Weight = Density*[g]. Density of a material shows the denseness of that material in a specific given area. This is taken as mass per unit volume of a given object.

How to calculate Specific Weight of Substance?
