Fluid mechanics studies the motion and forces of liquids and gases.
Fluid mechanics is a branch of physics and engineering that studies the behavior of fluids (liquids and gases) in motion and at rest. It involves understanding how fluids interact with forces and with solid boundaries, how they flow, and how they respond to changes in pressure and temperature. Fluid mechanics is typically divided into two main areas: 1. **Fluid Statics**: This area focuses on fluids at rest.
