write an activity to show that pressure varies with area of contact
Answers
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. 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
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. Gauge pressure (also spelled gage pressure) is the pressure relative to the ambient pressure.
