Pressure • Pressure is defined as the force per unit area. Pressure, P = F / A • Pressure in liquids, P = h ρg A = area of base h = depth of base g = gravitational field strength ρ = density of liquid Pascal’s principle • Pascal’s Principle states that in a confined fluid, an externally applied pressure is transmitted uniformly in all directions. Archimedes’ Principle • Archimedes’ Principle states that an object, whether completely or partially immersed in a fluid, is acted on by a buoyant force, which is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. Bernoulli’s Principle • Bernoulli's Principle states that in a steady flow of fluid, the pressure decreases when the velocity of the fluid increases and the converse is also true. 1 B 2A 3C 4. i.
