What to Focus On

  • Fluid includes both liquids and gases.
  • Fluid thrust is the total normal force exerted by a fluid at rest.
  • Pressure is thrust per unit area.

  • Pressure in a liquid increases with depth.
  • p = hρg for pressure due to a liquid column.
  • Pressure depends on depth and density only.

  • Pascal's law applies to a fluid in equilibrium.
  • Pressure is transmitted equally in all directions in an enclosed liquid.
  • For gravity neglected, p1 = p2.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Pressure is the same as thrust.

Pressure is a vector quantity because force is a vector.

Pressure at the bottom of a container depends on the shape of the container or the total amount of liquid.
