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.

The gravitational constant g is 9.807 m/s2 at sea level, but it decreases as you go up in elevation. A useful equation for this decrease in g is g = a – bz, where z is the elevation above sea level, a = 9.807 m/s2, and b = 3.32 × 10–6 1/s2. An astronaut “weighs” 80.0 kg at sea level. [Technically this means that his/her mass is 80.0 kg.] Calculate this person’s weight in N while floating around in the International Space Station (z = 354 km). If the Space Station were to suddenly stop in its orbit, what gravitational acceleration would the astronaut feel immediately after the satellite stopped moving? In light of your answer, explain why astronauts on the Space Station feel “weightless.”
