Comprehension) Questions With Correct
Answers
Fluid pressure is also known as _______ pressure. - answer✔hydraulic
What is the formula for calculating friction? - answer✔Ff = μFn
where Ff= force of friction, μ= coefficient of static/kinetic friction, and Fn=normal force
What is the formula for calculating pressure applied evenly to a surface? - answer✔P = F/A where P
represents the P represents pressure expressed in pounds of force per square inch, F represents force in
pounds and A represents area in square inches.
