Study Notes
Pressure in Fluids and Atmospheric Pressure
-
Thrust is a force applied perpendicular to a surface.
-
Thrust equals the weight of an object on a surface.
-
Pressure is thrust per unit area.
-
Pressure = Thrust/Area
-
SI unit of pressure is pascal (Pa).
-
1 Pa = 1 N/m²
-
CGS unit of pressure is dyne/cm².
-
Factors influencing pressure:
- Force (thrust)
- Surface area
-
Pressure in fluids increases with depth.
-
Pressure = hpg, where:
- h = depth
- p = density of the liquid
- g = acceleration due to gravity
Transmission of Pressure in Fluids
- Pascal's Law: Pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted equally in all directions throughout the fluid.
- Hydraulic machines utilize this principle to amplify forces.
Applications of Pascal's Law
- Hydraulic press: Used for lifting heavy objects.
- Hydraulic jack: Used to lift vehicles.
- Hydraulic brakes: Used for controlling vehicles.
Atmospheric Pressure
- Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the atmosphere on any surface.
- Atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing altitude.
- Units for atmospheric pressure:
- Atmospheres (atm)
- Millibars (mb)
- Torr (mm Hg)
- Factors affecting atmospheric pressure:
- Temperature
- Water vapor content
Measurement of Atmospheric Pressure
- Barometers measure atmospheric pressure.
- Types of barometers:
- Simple barometer
- Fortin barometer
- Aneroid barometer
Variation of Atmospheric Pressure with Altitude
- Atmospheric pressure decreases as altitude increases.
- This is due to the decreasing air density with altitude.
- The pressure decrease is not linear.
Consequences of Atmospheric Pressure
- Drinking through a straw: Atmospheric pressure forces liquid upward.
- Siphon system: Transferring liquid from a higher level to a lower level.
- Rubber sucker: Utilizing atmospheric pressure for adhesion.
- Collapsing tin can experiment: Demonstrating the atmospheric pressure difference inside and outside a container.
