Question

what is the definition of pressure?

Answer 1

Answer:

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.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Pressure (symbol: p or P) is the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area over which that force is distributed. ... Pressure may also be expressed in terms of standard atmospheric pressure; the atmosphere (atm) is equal to this pressure, and the torr is defined as 1⁄760 of this.
