An important characteristic of fluids is that there is no significant resistance to the component of a force applied parallel to the surface of a fluid. The molecules of the fluid simply flow to accommodate the horizontal force. A force applied perpendicular to the surface compresses or expands the fluid.

6.2: What Is a Fluid?
https://phys.libretexts.org/Courses/Skyline/Survey_of_Physics/06%3A_Fluid_Statics/6.02%3A_What_Is_a_Fluid
A fluid is a state of matter that yields to sideways or shearing forces. Liquids and gases are both fluids. Fluid statics is the physics of stationary fluids.

Fluid statics is the physics of stationary fluids. Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance or object while pressure is the force per unit perpendicular area over which the force is applied. Pressure due to the weight of a liquid of constant density is given by the product of the liquid's depth, density, and acceleration due to gravity.

[11]): if it is considered safe for an adult to jump off of a three-foot high ladder without injury, what is the maximum design load for a conical parachute that is 30 feet in diameter and has a drag coefficient of 1.5 ? The design air density is $0.08 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft}^{3}$ .

Examples with $n=1$ include flow through fine fibrous mats such as furnace filters, and the movement of fog, mist, and dust particles through the atmosphere.
