The document discusses momentum and forces in fluid flow. It covers the development of the momentum principle using Newton's second law and the impulse-momentum principle. It then discusses applications of the momentum equation, including for two-dimensional and three-dimensional flow. Specific examples are provided to demonstrate calculating forces on bends, nozzles, and surfaces due to fluid flow using control volume analysis and the momentum equation.
