• 13:14, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Air Foil (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Dynamics|file1=Air_Foil.GIF}} A large styrofoam plane actually glides. The wings can be removed and the shape can be easily seen by a large lecture class. Smaller wing section is also available.

• 13:00, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Bernoulli's Spool (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Dynamics|file1=Bernoulli's_Spool.gif}} A nail goes through the 3x5 card into the hole of the spool for stability. As long as air blows down though the hole the card will remain in position. '''Location: ''' * Drawer 12")
• 12:59, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Venturi Tube (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Dynamics|file1=Venturi_Tubes.gif}} This uses water in manometers to show the pressure differences within the metal tube. With no air flow the columns of water are level within each tube. With air flow the water rises toward the open end of the tube, the difference in column height within each tube showing the pressure. Tube 1 is highest, 2 is lowest, and 3 and 4 are in the middle and equal. Rubber hoses may be connected betw...")

• 12:54, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Bernoulli's Ping Pong Ball (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Mechanics|topic=Fluid Dynamics|file1=Bernouli's Ping Pong Ball.gif}} When air is blown through the funnel, the force on the ping-pong ball is into the funnel. The ball can not be blown out. It will also remain in an inverted funnel so long as the air flow continues. The ping-pong ball will also be held aloft by a steady stream of air. With practice the ball can be held aloft with the air blowing at it from an angle. '''Location: ''' * Ping-Pong Ball:...")
• 12:52, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Smoke Ring (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Dynamics|file1=Smoke_Rings.gif}} Use touch paper to fill the cylinder with smoke. Tap on the rubber sheet to make the smoke rings come out the hole on the other end. '''Location:''' * Shelf F-3")
• 12:50, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Ping Pong Ball Cannon (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Statics|file1=cannon1.jpg|file2=cannon2.jpg|file3=cannon3.jpg}} Get a ping pong ball to travel at very high speeds and destroy some soda cans using a vacuum pump. For safety, please do NOT EVER stand directly in front or behind of the cannon when the vacuum pump is running. Additionally, please be cautious where the cannon is aimed. This demo is ideally done in larger rooms (e.g. Willamette Hall atrium, WIL100, or outdoors)...")
• 12:49, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Pressure Bottle (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Statics|file1=harbott.GIF}} This demo demonstrates reduced air pressure. When the rubber stopper is in the bottom, the air pressure inside the bottle prevents you from blowing up the balloon. The balloon can be inflated when the stopper is out. After the balloon is inflated, and the stopper reinserted, it will remain inflated. The balloon can be filled with water, and will produce a geyser when the stopper is removed. '''Lo...")
• 12:48, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Coke Bottle Trick (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Statics|file1=}} In this demo, a Coke bottle is filled with water and a card is placed over the open end. The bottle is inverted and the card held in place until all of the air in the bottle is captured in the bottom end of the bottle. The card will now stay in place without aid. This demonstrates that the air pressure outside the bottle is greater than the pressure of the water, holding the card in place. '''Location: '''")
• 12:48, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Crushing the 55-gallon Drum (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Statics|file1=Crushing_the_55_Gal_Drum.gif}} POP CAN: A small amount of water is placed in a pop can. The can is placed on a hot plate and heated until steam is coming out the top. The can is grasped off the hot plate and turned upside-down into a beaker of cold water. The condensed steam reduces the pressure & the can collapses. 55-GALLON DRUM: The same process can be used to collapse a 55-gallon drum. Water in the drum is...")
• 12:46, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Magdeburg Hemispheres (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Statics|file1=Madgeberg Hemispheres.gif}} When the air is removed between these two hemispheres it becomes difficult to separate them. Steel spheres which require a vacuum pump or matching rubber suction cups are available. ''' Location:''' * Drawer 14")
• 12:46, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Leaky Can (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Statics|file1=leakycan.jpg}} Fill this can with water and it will come out of three holes at different heights. The water out of the lower hole will go farther showing the higher pressure. '''Location:''' * Shelf T-1 *")
• 12:46, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Pascal's Vases (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Statics|file1=Pascal's Vases.gif}} These variously shaped containers will show that the height of the water is independent of the vessel's shape. Two sizes available: a large one and a small one. '''Location: ''' * Large: Shelf T-3 * Small: Shelf T-1")
• 12:45, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Cartesian Diver (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Statics|file1=Cartesian_Diver.gif}} A graduated cylinder is filled with water. Within the water is an inverted test tube with just enough air in it to keep it afloat. When the rubber diaphragm over the top of the cylinder is depressed, increasing the pressure within the cylinder, the test tube sinks and returns when the diaphragm is released. '''Location: ''' * Shelf T-2")
• 12:44, 7 April 2022 Physdemo talk contribs created page Archimedes' Principle (Created page with "{{NewDemo|subject=Fluid Mechanics|topic=Fluid Statics|file1=Archimedes Principle.gif}} This Demo demonstrates Archimedes' Principle which states that any body submerged in fluid is acted on by an upward force. This is known as buoyancy. The first step is too show the spring scale's measurement simply holding the mass, and the top loading scale's measurement holding the beaker with water in it. The second step is to show the change after you put the mass in the water whi...")
