Forces in Fluids - Pressure
What Is Pressure?
Pressure decreases as the area over which a force is distributed increases.
Forces in Fluids
Area The area of a surface is the number of square units that it covers. To find the area of a rectangle, multiply its length by its width. The area of the rectangle below is 2 cm X 3 cm, or 6 cm2.

Area
Practice Problem
Which has a greater area: a rectangle that is 5 cm X 20 cm or a square that is 10 cm X 10 cm?
Both have the same area, 100 cm2.
5 cm X 20 cm = 100 cm2
10 cm X 10 cm = 100 cm2

Fluid Pressure
All of the forces exerted by the individual particles in a fluid combine to make up the pressure exerted by the fluid.

Variations in Fluid Pressure
As your elevation increases, atmospheric pressure decreases.
Forces in Fluids - Pressure
Variations in Fluid Pressure
Water pressure increases as depth increases.

Previewing VisualsBefore you read, preview Figure 5. Then write two questions that you have about the diagram in a graphic organizer like the one below. As you read, answer your questions.
Pressure Variations
Q. Why does the pressure change with elevation and depth?
A. Air and water exert pressure, so pressure varies depending on how much air or water is above you.
Q. How much greater is water pressure at a depth of 6,500 m than it is at sea level?
A. It is about 650 times greater.

Forces in Fluids - Floating and Sinking
Buoyancy
The pressure on the bottom of a submerged object is greater than the pressure on the top. The result is a net force in the upward direction.
Forces in Fluids - Floating and Sinking
Buoyancy
The buoyant force acts in the direction opposite to the force of gravity, so it makes an object feel lighter.
Forces in Fluids - Floating and Sinking
Buoyancy
Achimedes’ principle states that the buoyant force acting on a submerged object is equal to the weight of the fluid the object displaces.
Forces in Fluids - Floating and Sinking
Buoyancy
A solid block of steel sinks when placed in water. A steel ship with the same weight floats.

Density
Changes in density cause a submarine to dive, rise, or float.
Forces in Fluids
Relating Cause and EffectAs you read, identify the reasons why an object sinks. Write them down in a graphic organizer like the one below.
Object sinks.
Weight is greater than buoyant force.
Object is denser than fluid.
Object takes on mass and becomes denser than fluid.
Object is compressed and becomes denser than fluid.

Forces in Fluids - Pascal’s Principle
Transmitting Pressure in a Fluid
When force is applied to a confined fluid, the change in pressure is transmitted equally to all parts of the fluid.
Forces in Fluids - Pascal’s Principle
Hydraulic Devices
In a hydraulic device, a force applied to one piston increases the fluid pressure equally throughout the fluid.

Comparing Hydraulic Lifts
In the hydraulic device in Figure 15, a force applied to the piston on the left produces a lifting force in the piston on the right. The graph shows the relationship between the applied force and the lifting force for two hydraulic lifts.
- Pascal’s Principle
Forces in Fluids
Comparing Hydraulic Lifts
Lift A: 4,000 N; lift B: 2,000 N
Reading Graphs:
Suppose a force of 1,000 N is applied to both lifts. Use the graph to determine the lifting force of each lift.
- Pascal’s Principle

Comparing Hydraulic Lifts
3,000 N
Reading Graphs:
For Lift A, how much force must be applied to lift a 12,000-N object?
- Pascal’s Principle
Forces in Fluids
Comparing Hydraulic Lifts
Lift A: applied force is multiplied by four; lift B: applied force is multiplied by two.
Interpreting Data:
By how much is the applied force multiplied for each lift?
- Pascal’s Principle
Forces in Fluids
Comparing Hydraulic Lifts
The slope gives the ratio of the lifting force to the applied force. The greater the slope, the more the lift multiplies force.
Interpreting Data:
What can you learn from the slope of the line for each lift?
- Pascal’s Principle
Forces in Fluids
Comparing Hydraulic Lifts
Lift A, because it multiplies force more than lift B.
Drawing Conclusions:
Which lift would you choose if you wanted to produce the greater lifting force?

How a Hydraulic Device Works
Pressure in a confined fluid is increased.
Force is applied to a small piston.
The pressure is transmitted equally throughout the fluid.
The confined fluid presses on a piston with a larger surface area.
The original force is multiplied.
