Want this question answered?
You get the force exerted by a hydraulic piston by taking the pressure times the surface area of the piston.
Pressure is the force exerted on an object divided by the area where the pressure was applied.
pressure will be halved
No. It is not.
The pressure on Earths atmopphere is exerted over the entire surface of your hand
You get the force exerted by a hydraulic piston by taking the pressure times the surface area of the piston.
The pressure exerted by a solid object is in only one direction.
The pressure exerted by a solid object is in only one direction.
Pressure is the force exerted on an object divided by the area where the pressure was applied.
That's the average 'pressure' on the surface.
surface.
Pressure
That's the pressure on that particular area.
pressure will be halved
The force that is exerted on a surface divided by the area of the area is pressure. The standard unit of pressure is the Pascal.
No. It is not.
