GENERAL SCIENCE FOR8™ CLASS (UNIT 7)
SHORT QUESTIONS
Define the following terms:
Fores
Force is a push or pulls acting on an object which changes or tends to change the
state of the object.
Pressur.
The force acting per unit surface area is called pressure.
Force
Pressure = -=---=
Area
Area:
A region or part of a town, a country, or the world is called ar a.
Atmospheric pressur:
Air exerts pressure on all objects. The pressure exerted by air is called air pressure or
atmospheric pressure.
Aerosol:
A collection of solid particles or liquid droplets that are finely dispersed in a gas is
called aerosol, e.g. clouds, fog, and steam from your kettle are all examples of
aerosols.
Pascal:
Pascal is the SI unit of pressure. It is named after French scientist Blaise Pascal.
Whatis SI unit of force?
The unit of force is called the Newton, nd it has the symbol N
Whatis the SI unit of pressure?
Pascal is the SI unit of pressure. It is named after French scientist Blaise
jes that define force?
Pascal. Name two quant
* Weight
* Gravity
How does pressure at a point with in a liquid change with its depth?
Pressure of the liquid increases with depth.
On hat principle, Hydraulic brakes based on?
Hydraulic brakes are based on the principle of Atmospheric Pressure.
Why dams which hold water in reservoirs must be thicker at the base of
the dam than at the top.
Pressure of the water is much greater in deeper regions. This is because the dam
needs to be thick at the bottom so that it is strong enough to withstand with huge
water pressure.
What are hydraulic machines? Give two examples.

GENERAL SCIENCE FOR8™ CLASS (UNIT 7)
Hydraulic machines operate on the Pascal's law which states that: “the pressure, in a
static hydraulic fluid in a closed system is the same everywhere. Their examples are
Hydraulic Brakes and Hydraulic Press.
What are pneumatic machines? Give two examples.
Pneumatics is a section of technology that deals with the study and application of
pressurized gas to produce mechanical motion.
Examples:
1) Air brakes on buses and trucks
2) Air brakes on trains
3) 7) Vacuum pump
e Boyle's law of pressure.
This law states that:
“For a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume
are inversely proportional”
How do fluids exert pressure?
* Fluids exert pressure in all directions.
« Fluids exert pressure on all bodies immer ed in them and also on the walls of
the container that holds them.
* Pressure does not depend on the shape of the container
How air pushes ona surface?
Air pushes itself from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration.
Why the pressure in an inf ated tyre is higher than the air pressure outside.
Tyre is closed contained with imited area. That's why pressure in an inflated tyre is
higher than the air pressure outside.
Why a sucker stays in place on a flat surface.
The air between the sucker and the wall is first forced out so that the atmospheric
pressure pressing n it to hold it firmly against the wall. That's why sucker stays in
place ona flat surface.
