    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_equations_in...

    Classical mechanics is the branch of physics used to describe the motion of macroscopic objects. [1] It is the most familiar of the theories of physics. The concepts it covers, such as mass, acceleration, and force, are commonly used and known. [2]

  4. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    If mass density is ρ, the mass of the parcel is density multiplied by its volume m = ρA dx. The change in pressure over distance dx is dp and flow velocity v = ⁠ dx / dt ⁠. Apply Newton's second law of motion (force = mass × acceleration) and recognizing that the effective force on the parcel of fluid is −A dp.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes'_principle

    In this case the field is gravity, so Φ = −ρ f gz where g is the gravitational acceleration, ρ f is the mass density of the fluid. Taking the pressure as zero at the surface, where z is zero, the constant will be zero, so the pressure inside the fluid, when it is subject to gravity, is =. So pressure increases with depth below the surface ...

  7. Pressure-gradient force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-gradient_force

    In fluid mechanics, the pressure-gradient force is the force that results when there is a difference in pressure across a surface. In general, a pressure is a force per unit area across a surface. A difference in pressure across a surface then implies a difference in force, which can result in an acceleration according to Newton's second law of ...

  8. Acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration

    In classical mechanics, for a body with constant mass, the (vector) acceleration of the body's center of mass is proportional to the net force vector (i.e. sum of all forces) acting on it (Newton's second law): = =, where F is the net force acting on the body, m is the mass of the body, and a is the center-of-mass acceleration.

  9. Vertical pressure variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_pressure_variation

    A relatively simple version [1] of the vertical fluid pressure variation is simply that the pressure difference between two elevations is the product of elevation change, gravity, and density. The equation is as follows: =, where P is pressure, ρ is density, g is acceleration of gravity, and; h is height.
