Question

The pressure exerted by a body is 5 N/m2. What will be the value of this pressure in SI unit ? *​

Answer 1

Pressure is defined as the physical force exerted on an object. The force applied is perpendicular to the surface of objects per unit area. The basic formula for pressure is F/A (Force per unit area). Unit of pressure is Pascals (Pa). Types of Pressures are Absolute, Atmospheric, Differential, and Gauge Pressure. While sipping beverages from a straw, have you noticed that you actually suck the air out of the straw? While you sip the beverage, you’re actually applying ‘Pressure’. But, what does it mean? Let’s study more about it.
