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 …

1. At 0°C a steel cable is 1km long and 1cm diameter when it is heated it expands and its resistivity increases. Calculate the change in resistance of the cable as it is heated from 0-20°C The temperature coefficient of resistance a, gives the fractional increase in resistance per °C. So increase in resistance AR = Ra.AT Where R, is the resistance at 0°C For steel a, 0.003 °C The coefficient of linear expansion a- gives the fractional increase in length per °C temperature rise. So increase in Length AL La-AT Where L, is the length at 0°C For steel a₁ = 12 x 10 °C-1 The resistivity of steel at 0°C = 1.2 x 10 Qm
