Terms in this set (248)



What is pressure? Pressure is defined as force distributed over area,
calculated using the formula p = F/A (Pressure =
Force ÷ Area).


What are the units of pressure? Common units include Pascal (Pa), Kilopascal
(kPa), and N/cm².




What is the practical unit for most Kilopascal (kPa), where 1 kPa = 1000 Pa.
pressure measurements?

What pressure does average air 101.3 kPa.
exert at sea level?


How does compression occur? Compression occurs when a force pushes on an
object, causing it to deform in shape.


What is the difference between Balanced forces result in no movement or shape
balanced and unbalanced forces? change, while unbalanced forces cause
movement or compression.


What is Pascal's Law? Pascal's Law states that an enclosed fluid transmits
pressure equally in all directions.


What is a hydraulic system? A hydraulic system uses a liquid as the working
fluid to transmit force.


What is a pneumatic system? A pneumatic system uses compressed gas (air) as
the working fluid.

What happens to pressure as water The greater the depth of water, the greater the
depth increases? pressure at that point.


What is an example of a hydraulic A car lift, which uses two pistons of different sizes
device? to lift heavy loads.


How does a hydraulic system The output piston has a larger area than the input
multiply force? piston, allowing greater output force than input
force.


What is the trade-off in hydraulic While force can be multiplied, the small piston
systems? must move much farther than the large piston.


What are some common Dentists' drills, jack hammers, paint sprayers, and
applications of pneumatic systems? air brakes on trucks.


What is a critical requirement for The entire system must be completely sealed to
pneumatic or hydraulic systems to maintain pressure.
