Pressure Principles

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

• fluid
• pressure
• buoyant

Water pressure increases as depth increases. 

• True
• False

Liquids take the same ________ and _________ as their container.

• shape and size
• shape and volume
• size and color
• size and temperature

Which box has a higher density?  

• Box A
• Box B
• cannot be determined
• they are the same

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

Pressure is calculated or we can solve it using the formula

• Pressure = force/area
• Pressure = area/force
• Pressure = distance/time
• Pressure = mass/time

A ____________________ is a material that can flow and take the shape of its container.

• force
• mass
• fluid
• density
