Properties of Fluids

The term fluid represents a type of substance that can easily change its shape under any external pressure/force and can flow. Fluids can acquire any shape in which it is stored and can resist normal stresses but cannot resist shear stress in rest condition. Whenever external shear stress is applied to fluids, it starts to flow. The fluids may be liquid or gas. Example- water, air, etc.

QUESTION 2 A venturi meter with a throat diameter of 100 mm is fitted in the inclined pipeline of 200 mm diameter with oil of specific gravity 0.88 flowing upwards. The venturi meter coefficient is 0.96.
