Explanation:
What is Pressure?
The amount of force exerted (thrust) on a surface per unit area is defined as ‘Pressure’. It can also be defined as the ratio of the force to the area (over which the force is acting).
Formula and Unit of Pressure
Pressure (P) = Thrust/ Area
The SI unit is ‘pascals (Pa)’. 1 Pa = 1N/m2
Example: It is easier to hammer a sharp pin than to hammer a blunt pin. This is because the area at the end of the sharp pin is smaller than the area at the end of a blunt pin. This leads to an increase in pressure leading to hammer the sharp pin easily.
Types of Pressure
Atmospheric Pressure
Absolute Pressure
Differential Pressure
Gauge Pressure
Atmospheric Pressure
Atmospheric pressure
The earth’s atmospheric air is surrounded by a layer of gases and so this air surrounding the earth exerts a pressure known as the ‘atmospheric pressure’. Its value at sea level is 101325 Pa.
