Question
Answer
pressure   is equal to the force exerted on a surface divided by the total area over which the force is exerted  
🗑
pascal   unit of pressure per square meter (N/m squared)  
🗑
fluid   is a material that can easily flow  
🗑
barometer   instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure  
🗑
density   mass per unit volume  
🗑
buoyant force   liguids and gases exert an upward force that acts on a submerged object. It acts in the direction opposite to force of gravity  
🗑
Archimedes' Principle   states that the buoyant force acting on a submerged object is eual to the weight of the volume of fluid displaced by the object.  
🗑
Pascal Principle   states that pressure increases by the same amount throughout an enclosed odr confined fluid  
🗑
Bernoulli's Principle   states that the faster a fluid moves, the less pressure the fluid exerts. The speed of a moving fluid increases the pressure exerted by the fluid decreases  
🗑
lift   upward force  
🗑
hydraulic system   uses liquids to transmit pressure and multiply force in a confined fluid.  
🗑
