Pressure


  • Pressure = how much force is put on a certain area
  • Small pressure = given force over a big area
  • Large pressure = given force over a small area
  • Pressure is measured in N/m² (newtons per metre squared) OR Pa (pascals)
  • 1 N/m² = 1 Pa
  • Atmospheric pressure = around us always
  • Weight of atmosphere is pushing against us, but we don’t feel it as we are used to it.
  • Lower you are (sea level) = more atmosphere above you = atmospheric pressure increases
  • High up (mountains) = less atmosphere above you= atmospheric pressure decreases
  • Atmospheric pressure at sea level = 100,000 Pa
  • Pressures in liquid increasewith depth . This is due to the weight of the water above.
  • If an object is placed in water, the object experiences water pressure from all directions. As pressures increase with depth the forces acting up at the bottom of the object is greater than the force acting down at the top of the object. Overall upwards force = up thrust.
  • Up thrust = objects weight = object will float.
  • Up thrust is less than the objects weight = object will sink
