Pressure
  1. Thrust
    1. measured in dynes in the CGS system and newton or N in the SI system
      1. vector quantity
      2. scalar quantity
        1. solids exert pressure on another surface on account of its weight
          1. measured using Simple Barometer,Fortin's Barometer,Aneroid Barometer
            1. Thrust/Area or F/A
              1. Pressure in Fluids
                1. All liquids and gases
                  1. fluid enclosed in a vessel exerts pressure at all points and in all directions
                    1. P=hPg
                      1. h is height or depth
                        1. P is density
                          1. g is acceleration due to gravity
                            1. pressure in Fluids is directly proportional to hPg
                            2. Hydraulic Press
                              1. Based on Pascal's Law
                                1. MA=(radius of larger piston)^2/(radius of smaller piston)^2
                                2. gas is measured using Gas Manometer or Pressure Gauge
