Pressure

Question 1

Equation for pressure in a solid

Answer 1

Pressure = Force/Area

Question 2

Unit for pressure

Answer 2

1 N/m (Newton/Meter) or 1 Pa (Pascal)

Question 3

Change in Pressure

Answer 3

Δp= Density (kg/m3) X gravitational field strength (N/kg) X change in height/height of vertical column (m)

Question 4

Pressure in a liquid

Answer 4

Fluid Pressure = Fluid Density X Acceleration due to gravity X Fluid Depth
