Solutions to preeioous leson examples

1. goien F=weoght= 500N

A) 0.05m² B) A= 0.025m²

P = F/A= 500N/0.05m² P = F/A= 500N/0.025m²

= 10,000Pa P= 20,000Pa

2. goien F = mg = 2kg x 10m/s³ = 20N

A -max = 0.2m x 0.3 = 0.06m² and A- mon = 0.2m x 0.1m = 0.02m²

Pmon = F/Amax = 2N/0.06m² = 333Pa

Pmax = F/Amon = 2N/0.02m² = 1000Pa

3. exerecoce

4. 5. answer is A

 P = F/A = 720N/4m² = 130Pa

 F = PA = 240x10³Pa x 0.02m²= 4800N
 A = F/P = 5N/1Pa = 5m²

6. A. given P= 680mmHg ,

 h = 0.68m
ρ = 13600kg/m³
P = ρgh
P = 13600kg/m³ x 10m/s² x h = 0.68m
P = 92480Pa

B. given P= 820mmHg ,

 h = 0.82m
ρ = 13600kg/m³
 P = ρgh
P = 13600kg/m³ x 10m/s² x h = 0.82m
P = 111,520Pa

Some uses of aore preessuree

There are several uses for air pressure. Most rely on creatng a pressure diference by pumping
air into or out of a chamber.

 common pump -- a pump that relies on atmospheric pressure to move water .

 dreonkong streaw -- a thin tube used to suck liquids into the mouth.
 forece pump -- a pump that relies on atmospheric pressure and compressed air to
move water, often to a great height .
 loft pump -- a pump that relies on atmospheric pressure to move water.
 suction pad a round rubber pad that relies on atmospheric pressure to stck to
smooth surfaces.
 sophon -- a tube which can move liquid using the diference between the pressure of
the liquid and atmospheric pressure

6.2 Fluid pressure

 fluid refers to a substance that will flow

along a pipe
 Fluid include all gasses & liquids .
chareactereostic of fuods
 they can change their shape. This means they always take the shape of
the container.
 A liquid and gas will both fll the botom of the container; however, a
solid will not.
 gases can be compressed by forces. however, liquids are
incompressible.
 Partcles of liquids quite close together & can move past each other,
however partcles of gases are far apart & can move past each other.
 Liquid partcles have weak bonds but no bonding between the partcles
of gases .
Fluod densoty
 Density is defned as mass per unit volume .

density = mass / volume

ρ=m/V

 The so unot of densoty os kg/m³
