Hydrostaticsissä
Hydrostatics is the branch of fluid mechanics that studies fluids at rest. It deals with the principles governing the behavior of liquids and gases when they are not in motion, focusing on concepts like pressure, buoyancy, and density. The fundamental principle of hydrostatics is Pascal's principle, which states that pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of the containing vessel.
A key concept in hydrostatics is pressure, defined as force per unit area. In a fluid at
Another crucial aspect of hydrostatics is buoyancy, the upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the
Hydrostatics finds applications in various fields, including civil engineering (dam design, hydraulic structures), naval architecture (ship
