Pressure in a liquid at rest

Cards (3)

  • Complex Equation for water pressure
    1. Volume of liquid= (Pi x r^2 x Height)
    2. Mass of liquid= (Volume x Density)
    3. Weight of liquid= (Mass x Gravity)
    4. Pressure = (Weight/Cross-section)
  • Pressure increases as you go deeper in water as there are more water molecules exerting a downward force on an object
  • Where is the highest and where is the lowest amount of pressure?
    .
    A) Low Pressure
    B) High Pressure
