In Newtonian mechanics, the most common way to introduce the quantity of
motion is like the product of the mass (kg) of a material body by its
speed (m/s), to then analyze its relationship with the laws of Newton.

OBJECTIVE
This equation allows us to explain phenomena such as the Venturi effect, since the
acceleration of any fluid along an equipotential path (with equal
Potential energy) would imply a decrease in pressure.
The quantity of motion, linear momentum, impetus, or momentum is a
fundamental physical magnitude of vectorial type that describes motion of
a body in any mechanical theory.
The continuity equation is a product of the law of conservation of
matter, which indicates that, in a conduit or pipe, regardless of its
section; while there are no derivations, the amount of fluid that enters
it must exit from the other end. In other words, it is conserved.

What is the continuity equation?
The continuity equation is a product of the law of conservation of mass.

if there are branches, the amount of fluid that enters through one of its ends must
exit through the other. In other words, the fluid is maintained through a pipeline.

an ideal fluid.
The continuity equation is nothing more than a particular case of the principle of
mass conservation. It is based on the fact that the flow rate (Q) of the fluid must
remain constant throughout the entire driving.
Since the flow rate is the product of the area of a section of the duct
due to the speed at which the fluid flows, we will have that at two points of a

flow at point 2 (Q2). What is the continuity equation and where:
Q1=Q2= S1*V1=S2*V2
S is the area of the cross-sections at points 1 and 2 of the
duct.
v is the velocity of the fluid at points 1 and 2 of the pipe.
It can be concluded that, since the flow rate must remain constant throughout
Throughout the duct, when the section decreases, the flow velocity increases.

APPLICATIONS OF THE CONTINUITY EQUATION

2. CONSTRUCTION: It is present in the construction of channels and
aqueducts, as well as in plumbing and shipbuilding, just like
hydraulic jacks, cranes, shock absorbers, and brakes.
3. VENTURI EFFECT: It is a consequence of Bernoulli's theorem that
it consists of the fact that the constrictions of a pipe lead to an increase
from the velocity of the liquid and as a consequence a decrease in
pressure.

IMPORTANCE OF THE CONTINUITY EQUATION
Currently, the continuity equation is widely used to be able to carry out
different analyses of nozzles, of pipes, of the height of turbine blades and
compressors.

WHO DISCOVERED THE QUANTITY EQUATION
MOVEMENT?
The theory of momentum or Froude's Theory is, in mechanics of
fluids, a mathematical formulation of the physics of helices based on variation
of momentum. It was developed in the 19th century by William John
Macquorn Rankine and Robert Edmund Froude (1889).
WHAT IS THE EQUATION OF MOMENTUM?
The quantity of motion, linear momentum, impetus, or momentum is a magnitude
vector-type derived physics that describes the motion of a body in
any mechanical theory. In classical mechanics, momentum is
define as the product of the mass of the body and its velocity at an instant
determined.
WHAT IS THE FORMULA TO CALCULATE THE QUANTITY OF
MOVEMENT?
In Newtonian mechanics, the most common way to introduce the quantity of
movement is like the product of the mass (kg) of a material body by its
speed (m/s), to then analyze its relationship with Newton's laws.
The formula for Momentum is given by the following expression
mathematics
Formula for momentum
C=MV
Where:
C = Quantity of motion (kg m/s)
m = mass of the object (kg)
v = speed of the object (m/s)
For a system of bodies with masses m1, m2, mn and velocities respectively
equal to v1, v2, vn, the total momentum is the vector sum of the
momentum quantities of all points.
HOW IS MOMENTUM TRANSFERRED?
The movement is transferred in two ways, in a viscous manner when the
transfer is perpendicular to the movement of the fluid and in kinetic form if the
transfer is parallel to the movement of the fluid.
MOMENTUM EXERCISE

with a certain straight and horizontal trajectory, then noting our data.
Data:

Although the problem is very simple, since the amount of movement it

So the amount of movement is:

HISTORY OF THE ENERGY EQUATION IN FLUIDS
It was exposed by Daniel Bernoulli in his work Hydrodynamics (1738) and expresses that
in an ideal fluid (without viscosity or friction) in a circulation regime by a
closed conduit, the energy possessed by the fluid remains constant throughout
of its route.
What is the energy equation for fluids?
The Bernoulli equation expresses the equality of work per unit volume.
from fluid (P2-P1) to the sum of the magnitudes of potential and kinetic energy
volume unit that takes place in the flow. This equation can also
to be interpreted in terms of pressures.
