Fluids

Fluid

• A solid that can be compressed

• A liquid or gas that can flow

• A substance that cannot flow

• A gas that can be easily compressed

Fluid

• Water

• Rock

• Ice

• Buoyancy

Cohesion

• A fluid sticking to something else

• A fluid sticking to itself

• The resistance of a fluid to flow

• The measurement of how closely particles are packed together

Cohesion explained by ...

• All Matter is made from Tiny Particles

• Particles move faster and further apart when heated

• Particle are constantly moving

• Particles attract each other

Adhesion

• A fluid sticking to something else
