Study Notes
Operational Definition of Pressure
- Pressure can be operationally defined as the force exerted per unit area on a surface.
Properties of Pressure
- The principle of transmitted pressure states that a change in pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished to all portions of the fluid and to the walls of its container.
Pressure Variation
- Pressure varies with the height of a given fluid.
