Soaps, detergents or surfactants - also called surface-active agents - added to to water even in small substances decreases the surface tension of water to a considerable extent. Due to decreased surface tension water with soap can remove oil or grease where clean water can not.
The study of fluids - liquids and gases. Involving velocity, pressure, density and temperature as functions of space and time.
