PressureResult of a force distributed over an area
PressureCalculated by dividing the force by the area over which the force acts
PascalSI unit of pressure
PascalNewtons per square meter
IncreasesWater pressure ________ as depth increases.
ConstantThe pressure in a fluid at any given depth is ___________
Does notThe shape of the container and the area of the bottome of container ________ affect fluid pressure
depth and type of fluidFor a fluid that is not moving, _____________________ are the two factors that determine the pressure
decreasesAir pressure __________ as the altitude
IncreasesAir pressure decreases as the altitude ___________
pascal's principalChange in pressure at any point in a fluid is transmitted equally and unchanged in all directions throughout the fluid
Hydraulic systemA device that uses pressurized fluid acting on pistons of different sizes to change a force
Bernoulli's principalAs the speed of a fluid increases, the pressure within the fluid decreases
increasesAs the speed of a fluid ___________ the pressure within the fluid decreases
decreasesAs the speed of a fluid increases, the pressure within the fluid ______________
liftUpward force
yawTurning left or right on an airplane
pitchTilting from back to front in an airplane
RollOne wing tilting up, and the other down in an airplane
flapaffects lift and drag in an airplane
rudderControls yaw in an airplane
ElevatorControls pitch in an airplane
AileronControls roll in an airplane
SpoilerIncreases drag in an airplane
BuoyancyAbility of a fluid to exert an upward force on an object placed in it
BuoyancyResults in apparent loss of weight of an object in a fluid
Buoyant forceUpward force on an object in a liquid in the opposite direction of gravity
Archimedes' principleThe buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object
