  2. Hydrostatic weighing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_weighing

    Example 1: If a block of solid stone weighs 3 kilograms on dry land and 2 kilogram when immersed in a tub of water, then it has displaced 1 kilogram of water. Since 1 liter of water weighs 1 kilogram (at 4 °C), it follows that the volume of the block is 1 liter and the density (mass/volume) of the stone is 3 kilograms/liter.

  4. Tait equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tait_equation

    Tumlirz-Tammann-Tait equation of state based on fits to experimental data on pure water. A related equation of state that can be used to model liquids is the Tumlirz equation (sometimes called the Tammann equation and originally proposed by Tumlirz in 1909 and Tammann in 1911 for pure water). [4] [10] This relation has the form

  5. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    If the reference is not explicitly stated then it is normally assumed to be water at 4 °C (or, more precisely, 3.98 °C, which is the temperature at which water reaches its maximum density). In SI units, the density of water is (approximately) 1000 kg/m 3 or 1 g/cm 3, which makes relative density calculations particularly convenient: the ...

  6. Dynamic pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_pressure

    where (in SI units): q is the dynamic pressure in pascals (i.e., kg/(m*s 2), ρ (Greek letter rho) is the fluid mass density (e.g. in kg/m 3), and; u is the flow speed in m/s. It can be thought of as the fluid's kinetic energy per unit volume. For incompressible flow, the dynamic pressure of a fluid is the difference between its total pressure ...

  7. Pulsar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsar

    The first pulsar observed to have been affected by asteroids: PSR J0738−4042; The first double pulsar binary system, PSR J0737−3039; The shortest period pulsar, PSR J1748−2446ad, with a period of ~0.0014 seconds or ~1.4 milliseconds (716 times a second). The longest period neutron star pulsar, PSR J0901-4046, with a period of 75.9 seconds.

  8. Specific energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_energy

    It is also sometimes called gravimetric energy density, which is not to be confused with energy density, which is defined as energy per unit volume. It is used to quantify, for example, stored heat and other thermodynamic properties of substances such as specific internal energy , specific enthalpy , specific Gibbs free energy , and specific ...

  9. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    If the fluid is flowing out of a reservoir, the sum of all forms of energy is the same because in a reservoir the energy per unit volume (the sum of pressure and gravitational potential ρ g h) is the same everywhere. [6]: Example 3.5 and p.116 Bernoulli's principle can also be derived directly from Isaac Newton's second Law of Motion. If a ...
