Answer 9

push or pull on a object.

Question 10

What is the unit of measurement for pressure? How do you abbreviate it?

Answer 10

Pascal. Pa

Question 11

According to this paragraph, how does a fluid apply pressure?

It applies it to perpendicular sides.

Question 12

which direction does the water apply pressure to the object in the water?

Answer 12

Perpendicular sides of the object.

Question 13

How does pressure change as surface area changes

Answer 13

When the force applied over a small area pressure is greater the when the same force is applied to a larger area.

Question 14

atmospheric pressure

Answer 14

the ratio of the weight of all the air above you to your surface area.

Question 15

What does kPa stand for? What does that mean

Answer 15

Kilo pascal they rae way bigger than a normal pascal

Question 16

How does elevation affect atmospheric pressure?

Answer 16

The higher you are the less pressure, the closer to sea level the more pressure. You can go below sea level you have the most pressure.

Question 17

If 1 liter of water weighs more than one liter of oil, what does this mean

Answer 17

The water is more dense.

Question 18

What factors determine the density of fluids?

Answer 18
