    Uploaded by

    Aesha Chalishazar
    This document discusses key concepts related to thrust, pressure, and fluid dynamics. It defines pressure as force per unit area and explains that pressure is affected by the forces acting and the surface area. It also covers pressure in fluids, Pascal's law, density, variation of pressure with depth, atmospheric pressure, mercury barometers, buoyancy, and Archimedes' principle. Examples are provided to illustrate calculations of pressure and force.

    UNDERSTANDING THRUST & PRESSURE
     Pressure ,P is Defined as Force per unit area.
      𝐅 P = Pressure ,Pascal (Pa)
    𝐏=
    , Unit = N m -2
    𝐀 F = Force (Thrust), N
    A = Area , m2

     Factors Affecting Pressure:

    1. Forces Acting
    2. Area of Surface

     The Pressure exerted by the atmosphere at sea level. 1 atm = 1.013×105 Pa

    APPLICATION INVOLVING HIGH & LOW PRESSURE

    Pre-Nurture and career foundation


    EXAMPLES
    1. A Pressure of 2000 Pa is applied on a floor with an area of 0.2 m2 .What is the
    force produced?

    2. A Chef uses a knife with the surface area of 0.2 m2 to cut vegetables. IF the
    chef uses 20 N to cut the vegetables ,what is pressure produced?

    PRESSURE IN FLUIDS

     A Fluid is any substance that has no definite shape and has the ability to flow
     All liquids and gases are fluids.

    Pre-Nurture and career foundation


    PASCAL’S LAW

     The Pressure in a fluid at rest is the same at all points if they are at same height.
     Pressure applied to any part of an enclosed fluid at rest is transmitted in all
    directions equally to every portion of fluid and the walls of the containing
    vessel.

    DENSITY OF SUBSTANCE
     
     Mass per unit volume
     , m = mass of a sample of the substance ; V = volume
     Density is a characteristic property of a solid or a liquid.
     Density of gas is not a constant ,it is variable. It depends on temperature ,
    pressure and volume.
     SI Unit: Kg/m3
     Density of material depends upon
    I. Mass of particles
    II. Distance between particles

    Variation of pressure with depth

    Pre-Nurture and career foundation


    Variation of pressure with depth

     Fluid pressure depends only on the height of the column of fluid above the
    surface where you measure the pressure. It doesn’t depend on the area of the
    surface in contact or the shape of the liquid column.

    Atmospheric Pressure

     The envelope of air surrounding the Earth is known as the atmosphere.


     Atmospheric Air extends up to many kilometers above the surface of the earth
    which is large enough to exert a large pressure on objects at Earth’s surface.
     The Pressure exerted by the air present in atmosphere is known as
    atmospheric pressure.
     Atmospheric pressure on our body is a result of the weight of the atmosphere
    exerting force on our body.

    Buoyancy

     Tendency for an immersed body to be lifted up in a fluid ,due to upward force


    that acts opposite to the action of gravity
     Buoyancy is caused by differences in pressure acting on opposite sides of an
    object immersed in a static fluid.
     The pressure on the bottom of an object is greater than the top (since pressure
    increases with depth).
     The force on the bottom pushes up and the force on the top pushes down (since
    force is normal to the surface).
     The direction of the net force due to the fluid is upward.

    Archimedes’ principle

    Pre-Nurture and career foundation


    Archimedes’ principle

     When a body is immersed in a fluid either wholly or partially ,it is lifted up by a


    force which is equal to weight of fluid displaced by the body.

    Pre-Nurture and career foundation


     Applications of Archimedes’ principle
     Designing ships and submarines
     Lactometers
     Hydrometers

     Sinking and Floating


     Weight > Buoyant Force ; Object will sink
     Weight = Buoyant Force; Object will Floats
     Changing Buoyant Force
     Fluid exerts upward pressure on the entire lower surface of the object that is contact with the
    fluid .If this Surface is made larger ,then upward pressure is exerted on larger surface of the
    object and the buoyant force becomes large enough to float the object.
