5: (b) Density and pressure

#5.3

know and use the relationship between density, mass and volume:

density=massvolume\text{density} = \dfrac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}

ρ=mVρ = \dfrac{m}{V}

#5.4

practical: investigate density using direct measurements of mass and volume

#5.5

know and use the relationship between pressure, force and area:

pressure=forcearea\text{pressure} = \dfrac{\text{force}}{\text{area}}

p=FAp = \dfrac{F}{A}

#5.6

understand how the pressure at a point in a gas or liquid at rest acts equally in all directions

#5.7

know and use the relationship for pressure difference:

pressure difference = height × density × gravitational field strength

p=h×ρ×gp = h × ρ × g
