Specific weight and specific gravity
At sea level: g = 32.2 ft / s2 = 9.81 m / s2
Specific weight γ ≡ ρg
For water (4 C, 760 mm Hg)
- Density: ρH2O = 62.4 lbm/ft3 = 1000 kg/m3 = 1.94 slug/ft3
- Specific weight = 62.4 lbf / ft3 = 9810 N / m3
Specific gravity SG ≡ ρ / ρH2O
Atmospheric pressure at sea level ρatm
- 14.7 lbf / in2 = 101 kPa = 1.01 × 105 Pa = 760 mm Hg
Gage pressure ≡ ρ - ρatm

Hydrostatics for manometers (liquids) 1For liquids, often take the origin at the free surface and measure distances as positive downward from that surface
For liquids, also assume that the density is constant

Hydrostatics for manometers (liquids) 2Assume h measured
+ downward
This shows that the pressure difference between two points in a static fluid can be determined by measuring the elevation distance (devices are called manometers)

Additional points when applying the hydrostatic equation to gases:
Example: gases in hydrostaticsExample: Find pressure variation with altitude; assume that the temperature decreases linearly with altitude, T = T0 − cz
Integrate (pressure p0 at z = 0, p at z):
Exercise: solve for p15
BuoyancyDefinition of buoyancy:

Example: bubble rising in fluid 1

Given: A hydrogen bubble of diameter d rises in water because of buoyancy but eventually reaches a terminal velocity. The drag force of the water on bubble is F = 3πµVd, where µ is the water viscosity and V the bubble speed relative to water. Find: (a) Buoyancy force that acts on the bubble; (b) estimate terminal speed.
Basic equations:
