Pressure in Fluids and Atmospheric Pressure
(A) PRESSURE IN FLUIDS AND ITS TRANSMISSION



Thrust and Pressure:

Thrust – A force can be applied on a surface in any direction. When a
force is applied in a direction normal (or perpendicular) to the surface it
is called thrust.
Thrust is the force acting normally on a surface


Thrust exerted by a body on a surface = Weight of the body


Thrust is a vector quantity.

Unit of thrust : The S.I unit of thrust is Newton (N) and C.G.S unit is dyne.

1N = 105 dyne

The gravitational unit of thrust in M.K.S system is kgf and in C.G.S system is gf.

1 kgf = 9.8 N and 1 gf = 980 dyne

, Pressure : It is the thrust per unit
area. Pressure is a scalar quantity




Units of pressure :-



Unit of pressure = Unit of thrust

Unit of area

S.I unit of thrust is newton and area is meter2 which is abbreviated as N m-2.


1 pascal (or 1 pa) = 1 Newton

1 meter-2

Or 1 pa = 1 N m-2


One pascal is the pressure exerted on a surface of area 1 m2 by a force on 1 N acting normally on it
