Front

What is pressure?

Back

Pressure is the force applied per unit area.

Front

What is hydraulic pressure?

Back

Hydraulic pressure is the pressure exerted by a fluid in a confined space.

Front

What is Bernoulli's Principle?

Back

Bernoulli's Principle states that an increase in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in pressure.

Front

What is the formula for pressure?

Back

Pressure (P) = Force (F) / Area (A).

Front

What is Pascal's Law?

Back

Pascal's Law states that a change in pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished to all portions of the fluid.
