Topic 1 : Pressure
Pressure in solids = perpendicular force area Pressure = Pascals (Pa) Force = Newtons (N) Area = meters squared ( m2 )
1 Pa = 1 N per m2
A liquid finds it’s own level throughout and pressure does not depend on the shape of the container. If pressure is at the same depth below the surface of different liquids it is different according to the liquid viscosity density (THICKNESS). Pressure acts equally in all directions at the same depth. Pressure is transmitted throughout all the liquid. Pressure in liquid increases with depth under the liquid.
