What to Focus On

  • Pressure = Force/Area
  • Only perpendicular force is considered here
  • SI unit of pressure is N/m² or Pa

  • Liquids exert pressure in all directions
  • Liquid pressure increases with height of liquid column
  • Greater height of water column causes greater bulge in the balloon

  • Atmosphere is the envelope of air around Earth
  • Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by air around us
  • Air exerts pressure in all directions

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Pressure is the same as force.

A smaller area always means a smaller effect because less surface is touched.

Liquids exert pressure only at the bottom of a container.

Memory Tips

Pressure is force per unit area

Narrow straps cause more pressure than broad straps

Smaller area means higher pressure

A force of 100 N on 2 m² gives 50 N/m²
