GCSE Physics - What is Pressure? #48

The video tutorial explains pressure as force per unit area, using examples of solid and fluid interactions. It highlights the importance of perpendicular force in generating pressure and provides a practical calculation example. The tutorial covers both solid and fluid pressure, emphasizing the role of particle collisions in fluids.

What is the significance of using the perpendicular force when calculating pressure?

Calculate the force exerted on a 0.5m^2 area by a pressure of 60 kilopascals.
