About this Item

Print on Demand. This book introduces and explores hydrostatics, a branch of physics that focuses on fluids at rest. It begins with an overview of states of matter and the properties of liquids and gases. Readers will learn to analyze and solve problems related to fluid pressure, as well as buoyancy, and how to calculate specific gravity. The book also delves into the dynamics and equilibrium of floating bodies, exploring the forces at play when objects are submerged in liquids. The author provides readers with a solid understanding of the fundamental principles of hydrostatics and its wide-ranging applications in various fields. By mastering the concepts presented in this book, readers will gain a deeper understanding of the physical world around them, from the behavior of water in everyday situations to the design of sophisticated hydraulic systems. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. Seller Inventory # 9781331927716_0
