Provide an example of how both force and area affect pressure.
- 2.
Pressure is defined as ____________
- A.
Pounds per unit of area
- B.
Inches per unit of area
- C.
Force applied to a unit area
- D.
Flow per unit of area
Correct Answer
C. Force applied to a unit areaExplanation
Pressure is defined as the force applied to a unit area. This means that pressure is the amount of force exerted on a surface divided by the area over which the force is applied. It is commonly measured in units such as pounds per square inch (psi) or pascals (Pa). This definition helps to understand how pressure is calculated and how it affects objects and their surroundings.Rate this question:

The density of a substance relative to the density of water
- A.
Inches of mercury
- B.
Inches of water
- C.
Bars
- D.
Specific gravity
Correct Answer
D. Specific gravityExplanation
Specific gravity is a measure of the density of a substance relative to the density of water. It is a dimensionless quantity, meaning it has no units. The specific gravity of a substance indicates how many times denser or lighter it is compared to water. A specific gravity greater than 1 means the substance is denser than water, while a specific gravity less than 1 means it is less dense. This measurement is commonly used in various industries, such as chemistry and engineering, to compare the densities of different substances and determine their buoyancy or solubility in water.Rate this question:

Mass per unit volume
- A.
Specific gravity
- B.
density
- C.
Pressure
- D.
Force
Correct Answer
B. densityExplanation
Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume. It is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume. Therefore, density represents the mass per unit volume of a substance. Specific gravity, pressure, and force are not directly related to mass per unit volume and do not provide information about the concentration of mass within a given volume.Rate this question:

Instrument used to measure the difference between two pressure points
- A.
Manometer
- B.
Capacitance transducer
- C.
Differential pressure cell
- D.
Strain gauge transducer
Correct Answer
C. Differential pressure cellExplanation
A differential pressure cell is used to measure the difference between two pressure points. It consists of two pressure chambers connected to a diaphragm. When the pressure difference between the two points changes, it causes the diaphragm to flex, which can be measured and converted into an electrical signal. This makes the differential pressure cell a suitable instrument for accurately measuring and monitoring pressure differences in various applications, such as flow rate measurement, level measurement, and HVAC systems.Rate this question:

Device that contains a measurement diaphragm and capacitor plates
- A.
Manometer
- B.
Capacitance transducer
- C.
Differential pressure cell
- D.
Strain gauge transducer
Correct Answer
B. Capacitance transducerExplanation
A capacitance transducer is a device that contains a measurement diaphragm and capacitor plates. It works by measuring the change in capacitance between the plates when pressure is applied to the diaphragm. As the pressure changes, the distance between the plates also changes, resulting in a change in capacitance. This change in capacitance can be measured and used to determine the pressure being applied. Therefore, a capacitance transducer is the correct answer because it fits the description of a device that contains a measurement diaphragm and capacitor plates.Rate this question:

Pressure is increased when:
- A.
The number of molecules per unit of area is decreased
- B.
Heavier molecules per unit area are introduced
- C.
Molecules begin to move faster
- D.
The number of molecules are spread out over a larger unit area.
Correct Answer
C. Molecules begin to move fasterExplanation
When molecules begin to move faster, the pressure increases. This is because the pressure exerted by a gas is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of its molecules. When molecules move faster, their average kinetic energy increases, leading to more frequent and forceful collisions with the walls of the container. These collisions result in an increase in pressure.Rate this question:
-

When calculating pressure, liquids and gases are considered as fluids.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Liquids and gases are considered fluids because they both have the ability to flow and take the shape of their container. When calculating pressure, both liquids and gases are treated as fluids because they exert pressure in all directions. This is due to the fact that the particles in fluids are not held together in a rigid structure like solids, allowing them to move more freely. Therefore, it is correct to say that when calculating pressure, liquids and gases are considered as fluids.Rate this question:

_______ pressure always sets zero at atmospheric pressure.
- A.
Absolute
- B.
Gauge
- C.
Differential
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
B. GaugeExplanation
Gauge pressure always sets zero at atmospheric pressure. Gauge pressure is the pressure measured relative to atmospheric pressure, so when the pressure is equal to atmospheric pressure, the gauge pressure is zero. This is because gauge pressure is a measure of the pressure above or below atmospheric pressure, so when they are equal, there is no difference and the gauge pressure is zero.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
C. U-tube manometerExplanation
A U-tube manometer is the most common measurement scale for a manometer because it is a simple and effective device for measuring pressure. It consists of a U-shaped tube partially filled with a liquid, such as mercury or water. When pressure is applied to one end of the tube, the liquid level in that arm will rise, while the level in the other arm will decrease. The difference in the liquid levels can be measured and used to determine the pressure. This design is widely used due to its simplicity, accuracy, and versatility in measuring both positive and negative pressures.Rate this question:
