Pressure in fluids and atmospheric pressure is explained using examples like tractor tires and truck tires, with trust defined as a force applied in a perpendicular direction measured in Newton unit. Pressure is calculated as force divided by area in Pascal unit, with examples like building foundations and slippers used to illustrate the relationship between pressure and area.

Insights

  • Trust is defined as the force applied on a surface in a perpendicular direction, with the unit of trust being Newton, and it is a vector quantity related to the weight of the body and the force of gravity.
  • Pressure is calculated by dividing force by area, with the unit of pressure being Pascal (Pa), and it varies with surface area, depth in fluids, and influences behaviors of gases and liquids.

Pressure: Impact on Water Bodies and Devices

  • Swimming is easier in water bodies with lower pressure, such as lakes, due to reduced pressure on the body.
  • The construction of dams involves creating concrete and iron walls to withstand the pressure of river water.
  • The deeper the wall in a dam, the more pressure it can handle from the river water.
  • Divers wear special protective suits due to the increased pressure at deeper ocean levels.
  • The size of bubbles in water increases due to decreasing pressure as they rise to the surface.
  • Pressure is exerted on fluids like gases and liquids, affecting their behavior.
  • Plungers are used to reduce pressure inside containers, allowing liquids to flow out.
  • Fountain pens operate by changing pressure to draw ink into the nib.
  • Barometers, like mercury barometers, measure atmospheric pressure based on the height of mercury in a tube.
  • Altimeters help determine altitude by measuring pressure changes at different heights above sea level.
