Pressure

Cards (4)

  • when is gas felt as pressure
    when the gas particles move randomly in every direction and they exert forces on their container
  • when does an object float
    if it weighs less than the weight of the water it displaces
  • what does pressure in a liquid vary with
    depth and density
  • what is the buoyancy force
    the upwards force that counteracts the weight of the floating object - equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object
