Physical Science Chapter 13 Pressure in Fluids

Fluid pressure is directed

• in all directions.
• only upward.
• only downward.
• always sideways.

When you increase your depth under water, the water pressure on your body

• increases

• decreases

• stays the same

What decreases as you go up in the atmosphere?

• Altitude
• Atmosphere
• Meteors
• Air Pressure

Fluid pressure increases as depth increases.

• True

• False

The reason gases can be compressed is because:

• The particles are very close together.

• The particles are merely vibrating.

• The particles are unable to move.

• The particles are very far apart.

What do we call the the amount of force exerted on a certain area?

• fluid
• pressure
• buoyant

What is the SI unit use for hydraulic pressure?

• Kg/m³

• Pa

• Litre

• Kilometer

When pressure is applied to a confined fluid, the increase in pressure is transmitted equally to all parts of the fluid. This fact is called________.

• Pascal's Principle
• Newton's Principle
• Archimedes' Principle
• Bernoulli's Principle

What is the formula for pressure?

• P=A/F

• P=FA

• P=F/A

To calculate pressure you need to know ...

• Force & Volume

• Density & Volume

• Power & Area

• Force & Area
