👉 A static fluid, also known as a non-moving fluid, is a type of fluid that does not flow or change its position over time. It remains in a fixed state, occupying a volume without any movement. Examples include water in a still pond or oil in a container with no agitation. Unlike dynamic fluids, which exhibit motion and can be described by properties like velocity and pressure, static fluids are characterized solely by their density and compressibility. They play a crucial role in various physical phenomena, such as fluid statics, where principles like Archimedes' principle and Pascal's law are applied to understand the behavior of fluids at rest.
