What is pressure defined as?

• The mass divided by volume

• The area divided by force

• The force applied per unit of area

• The volume multiplied by force

What unit is pressure measured in?

• Meters squared

• Kilograms

• Pascals

• Newtons

What example is used to illustrate the concept of pressure in the video?

• Blowing up a balloon

• Hitting a nail with a hammer

• A book resting on a table

• Pouring water into a glass

What happens when a gas particle collides with the wall of its container?

• It loses all its energy

• It creates a vacuum

• It applies a force to the wall, creating pressure

• It stops moving

How does fluid pressure differ from pressure in solids?

• It only acts downwards

• It does not depend on force

• It is measured in a different unit

• It is generated by particle collisions in all directions

What is fluid pressure?

• Pressure found exclusively in solid objects

• A type of pressure that can be ignored in calculations

• Pressure that only acts in one direction

• Pressure generated by the collisions of fluid particles

What is the significance of perpendicular force in calculating pressure?

• It is always smaller than the applied force

• It is the only force that contributes to pressure

• It does not contribute to pressure

• It is the force parallel to the surface

Why do we use the perpendicular component of force in pressure calculations?

• It's the only component that actually contributes to pressure

• It's easier to calculate

• It represents the maximum possible force

• It's a convention without real significance

How do you convert kilopascals to pascals?

• Divide by 100

• Divide by 1000

• Multiply by 1000

• Multiply by 100

What is the force exerted by a pressure of 60 kilopascals on a 0.5 meter squared area?

• 12000 Newtons

• 120000 Newtons

• 30000 Newtons

• 60000 Newtons
