Pressure Flashcards
1
Q
Equation for pressure in a solid
A
Pressure = Force/Area
2
Q
Unit for pressure
A
1 N/m (Newton/Meter) or 1 Pa (Pascal)
3
Q
Change in Pressure
A
Δp= Density (kg/m3) X gravitational field strength (N/kg) X change in height/height of vertical column (m)
4
Q
Pressure in a liquid
A
Fluid Pressure = Fluid Density X Acceleration due to gravity X Fluid Depth
