Mechanical Properties of Fluids — NEET/JEE Questions, Notes & Weightage
Class 11 Properties of Matter NEET weightage: Medium 814 questions
Covers pressure, Pascal's law, Archimedes' principle (buoyancy), Bernoulli's equation, viscosity, and surface tension. Bernoulli's-equation numericals (e.g. Venturi meter, efflux speed) and buoyancy problems are this chapter's most reliable contribution.

Frequently asked questions
What is the most-tested application of Bernoulli's equation?
Finding the speed of efflux from a hole in a tank, or pressure difference in a Venturi-meter-style setup, is the chapter's signature numerical question type.
Is surface tension tested with formulas or just concepts?
Both — capillary rise numericals (using the surface tension formula) and conceptual questions about why drops are spherical are both common.
