Fluid Pressure
The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.
Gauge Pressure
Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.

![You are given two equal size cubes of wood and metal. They are 0.2 meters on a side. The density of the
wood is 633 kg/m³ while that of the metal is 4970 kg/m³. Use g = 9.8 m/s² for these problems.
a) Determine the volume of a cube:
0.008
b) Determine the mass of the wood:
5.064
39.76
c) Determine the mass of the metal:
49.63
0 m³
d) Determine the weight force exerted by the Earth on the wood:
389.65
kg
It floats on the top
✓o kg
e) Determine the weight force exerted by the Earth on the metal:
It sinks to the bottom
ON
You drop both cubes into a large and full container of water. Based on a comparison of their densities to
that of water and perhaps a bit of common sense....
f) Determine the location of the wood when it comes to equilibrium:
