Q

pressure

A
  • magnitude of perpendicular force executed per unit area
  • forces that produce pressure are exerted equally in all directions but add to produce net force that is perpendicular to surface

A
  • pressure exerted on submerged object relative to atm
  • positive for pressure above atm, negative for pressure below

Q

buoyancy

A
  • net upward force of fluid on object
  • buoyant force = weight of fluid displaced
  • vsub/vobj = pobj/pfl
