Rough calculation

p = F / A

p = m g / A

p = V g / A

p = A h g / A

p = h g

p = (1)(104)(10) Pa

p = 105 Pa

What does it mean when we are told to inflate a tyre to 100 kPa?

Answer Pressure gauges measure the pressure above and below atmospheric (or barometric) pressure. Need to distinguish between a gauge pressure and absolute pressure.

patm = 101 kPa

pgauge = 100 kPa pabsolute = (101 + 100) kPa = 201 kPa pabsolute = pgauge + patm

How does a gas or liquid exert a pressure on its container walls?

Answer

Impact of a molecule on the wall of the container exerts a force on the wall and the wall exerts a force on the molecule. Many impacts occur each second and the total average force per unit area is called the pressure.

m = 70 kg

FG = 700 N

A = 10 mm x 10 mm

A = (100)(10-3)(10-3) m2

A = 10-4 m2

p = F / A

p = 700 / 10-4 Pa

p = 700 x 104 Pa

p = 7 x 106 Pa

p / patm = 7x106 / 1x105 atm = 70 atm

Life Life in the deep sea must adapt to unique conditions of low or no light, high pressure, low energy- except at hot vents (superheated temperatures). One unexplained but fairly common feature of deep animals is gigantism (such as oarfish, the giant squid, etc.). Less than 1% of the deep-sea has been explored. What might be left undiscovered?

Provided that an object immersed in a fluid is not moving, the force on each small part of the contact surface is perpendicular to the surface so the interaction can be described completely in terms of pressure. Fluid pressure always acts perpendicular to any surface irrespective of how the surface is oriented. If there is relative motion between the fluid and solid object, the force has components parallel to the surface and the interaction is not simply described by the pressure. Pressure has no intrinsic direction of its own (pressure is a scalar).

! The pressure within a uniform stationary fluid is the same at all points in the same horizontal plane.

hh

The pressure exerted by a static fluid depends only upon the depth of the fluid, the density of the fluid, and the acceleration of gravity

ph = p0 + g h

Static pressure does not depend upon mass or surface area of liquid and the shape of container due to pressure exerted by walls.
