understanding pressure basics and beyond

Start

key consepts

Presssure is the force applied over a certain area. It appears in everyday situations like air pressure,water pressure and pressure in machines. Understanding pressure helps explain how objects move,float,or withstand forces

Basic pressure :P=F/A

Pressure diff: ΔP=pgΔh

Atmospheric Pressure:P=101,325pa

Pressure in liquids:P=pgh

FORMULAS

Total pressure in a liquid:P.total=P.atmospheric+pgh

Density formula: p=m/v

Hydraulic Pressure:F1/A1=F2/A2

Gas pressure PV=nRT

What is Pressure?

Pressure tells us how much force is applied on certain areaIf the same force is applied n a smaller are,the pressure becomes higher. If the force spreads over a large area,the pressure becomes lower. Formulas: P= F\A Examples: A sharp knife cuts better because it has a small area ,so pressure is high. A camels wide feet reduce pressure on sand so it does not sink.

FACTORS affecting pressure

1.ForceMore Forces means more pressure2.Area Smaller area means higher pressure largers area means lower pressure 3.Direction of force Pressure acts perpendiculer to the surface

Pressure in liquids

Liquids exert pressure because the particles psh against the walls of the container and anything inside the liquidKEY WORDS: Pressure increase depth. Pressure increases with density of the liquid. Pressure acts in all directions FORMULA: P= pgh p is density g is gravity h is depth EXAMPLES: A dam is thicker at the bottom because pressure is higher there

+ info

PRESSURE IN AIR

Air has weight,so it pushes down on everything around us,this creates air pressureKey points: Air pressure is highest at sea level Air pressure decreases as altitude increases Air pressure changes cause weather changes Standard atmospheric pressure is 101,325 Pa Example:mountain vs sea level

Why air pressure changes

Air becomes less dense at higher altitudes.Temperature changes effect pressure. Weather systems high pressure=clear skies low pressure=rain Examples: your ear "pop" in a airplane because pressure changes.

Comparing pressure in air vs liquids

Pressure in liquids:depends on depth and density direction:all directions Formula:P=pgh

pressure in airdepends on altitude and temperature directions:all directions

Conclusions

Summary

  • Pressure = force/area
  • Liquid pressure increases with depth and density
  • Air pressure decreases with height
  • Pressure explains many real life situations :weather,floating,sinking,hydraulics,cutting and etc
