Hydrostatic Introduction | Fluid Dynamics Series, Part 1 | F.I.T. Mechanical Engineering

In this first episode, Prof. Gearfruit Orange from the F.I.T. Department of Mechanical Engineering derives the fundamental hydrostatic equation from force balance principles and explores how pressure changes with depth in a static fluid.

You’ll learn:

Stevin’s Principle and its role in pressure variation

Archimedes’ Principle and how buoyancy works

Real examples like:

A cube between two immiscible fluids

A balloon rising in an isothermal atmosphere

A bubble in a heated liquid

This chalkboard-style walkthrough builds deep physical intuition and provides a solid foundation for fluid statics in real-world contexts.
