Why solids are not called fluids?
Solids are not called fluids because solids have a fixed shape and volume, while fluids can change shape and flow to fill the container they are in. Solids have particles that are tightly packed together and vibrate in place, whereas fluids have particles that are able to move past each other.
Why are both liquids and solids called fluids?
Fluids are neither solids nor liquids. Fluids are a form between solids and liquids. Fluids donot exhibit a fixed shape like solids do and also are not free flowing as liquids are. Fluids, while maintaining their total volume can flow freely upto a certain extent. Though not very accurate, a fluid behaves some what like ketchup :)
What is the difference between conductive and convective heat transfer mechanisms?
Conductive heat transfer occurs through direct contact between materials, while convective heat transfer involves the movement of fluids to transfer heat. Conductive transfer is more efficient in solids, while convective transfer is more effective in liquids and gases.
What is difference between compression waves and shear waves?
Compression waves, also known as longitudinal waves, involve particles oscillating parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Shear waves, on the other hand, involve particles moving perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Compression waves can travel through both solids and fluids, while shear waves can only propagate through solids.
What are the two forms in which sound can travel?
Sound can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. In solids, sound travels through vibrations of particles, while in fluids (liquids and gases), sound travels through compressions and rarefactions of the medium.
What is the difference about the intermolecular forces of attraction between the phases that allows fluids and gases to flow but prevent solids from flowing?
Fluids and gases have weak intermolecular forces that allow particles to move past each other, enabling flow. In contrast, solids have stronger intermolecular forces that hold particles in fixed positions, preventing flow. This difference in intermolecular forces allows fluids and gases to flow easily, while solids maintain their rigid structure.
What is the difference between clarifier and classifier?
Clarifier removes solids from Liquid and Clarifier removes solids from Gas
What is difference between aqua and fluids?
BYE

What is the process to separate solids and fluids called?
One way to separate solids and fluids is through filtration. Pour the mixture through a filter and the solids will be trapped in the filter.
What is the paticle theory?
The particle theory provides a model to help us understand the differences between fluids and solids.
What is the difference between a fluid and a paste?
Fluids flow easily and have low viscosity, while pastes are more viscous and do not flow as easily. Fluids have a lower solids content compared to pastes, which are more thick and have a higher solids content.
What is volume in english?
Do you mean'What is the unit of volume used in the British system of measurement? If so, the answer is:- Cubic Feet, & Cubic Inches, & Cubic Metre for SOLIDS and for FLUIDS it is Pints, Quarts, Gallons.. Be aware that you need to make a distinction between FLUIDS and SOLIDS when you discuss VOLUME.
What is a medium sound can travel through?
Fluids and solids

What is the medical term meaning Solids and fluids return to the mouth from the stomach?
Regurgitation or vomiting is the return of solids and fluids from the stomach back to the mouth.
What has the author Victor Goyzo Szebehely written?
Victor Goyzo Szebehely has written: 'The analogy between elastic solids and viscous fluids' -- subject(s): Viscosity, Elastic solids, Strains and stresses
