  • Pressure (P)
    • A continuous physical force exerted on or against an object by something in contact with it
    • Measured in Pascals (Pa)
      • 1Pa = 1N/m²
    • = Force (N) / Area (m²)
      • (Pressure Triangle)
    • Change in Pressure
      • = Density (D) x Gravity (g) x Height (h)
        • (change in pressure triangle)
    • Increasing and Decreasing Pressure
      • To Increase Pressure
        • Increase the force or reduce the area the force acts on
      • To Decrease Pressure
        • Decrease the force or increase the area the force acts on
