Answers
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). ... While you sip the beverage, you're actually applying 'Pressure'.
Applications of pressure:-
1) A syringe consists of a tight-fitting piston which moves in a cylinder, with a nozzle at one end also works with the help pressure.
2)When air is sucked out of a drinking straw ,the air pressure inside it decreases and the atmospheric pressure outside forces the liquid to go inside the straw.
3)A vacuum cleaner has a fan inside that creates a low pressure inside the device . Consequently,air and dirt particles are sucked into the device.
4)Siphon is only a rubber cylinder utilised for exchange fluid with the help of pressure.
