The Unit of Pressure (Pascal):The Unit of Pressure (Pascal):
A pressure of one pascal (1 Pa) is defined as a
force of one newton (1 N) applied to an area of
one square meter (1 m2
).

1 Pa = 1 N/mPascal:
In the previous example the pressure was
73,500 N/m2
. This should be expressed as:
P = 73,500 PaP = 73,500 Pa
Fluid PressureFluid Pressure
A liquid or gas cannot sustain a shearing stress - it is
only restrained by a boundary. Thus, it will exert a
force against and perpendicular to that boundary.
• The force F exerted by a
fluid on the walls of its
container always acts
perpendicular to the walls. Water flow
shows ⊥ F
Fluid PressureFluid Pressure
Fluid exerts forces in many directions. Try to submerse
a rubber ball in water to see that an upward force acts
on the float.
• Fluids exert pressure in

Water seeks its own level,
indicating that fluid pressure
is independent of area and
shape of its container.
• At any depth h below the surface of the water
