Question 1. Define the term thrust. State its S.I. unit.

Answer:

Thrust is the force acting normally on a surface.

Its S.I. unit is ‘newton’.

Question 2.

(a)What physical quantity is measured in bar?

(b) How is the unit bar related to the S.I. unit pascal?

Answer:

(a) Pressure is measured in ‘bar’.

(b) 1 bar = 10⁵ pascal.

Question 3. Define one pascal (Pa), the S.I. unit of pressure.

Answer:

One pascal is the pressure exerted on a surface of area 1 m² by a force of 1N acting normally on it.

Question 4. State whether thrust is a scalar or vector?

Answer:

Thrust is a vector quantity.

Question 5. State whether pressure is a scalar or vector?

Answer:

Pressure is a scalar quantity.

Question 6. What is a fluid?

Answer:

A substance which can flow is called a fluid.

Question 7. Pressure at the free surface of a water lake is P₁, while at a point at depth h below its free surface is P₂. (a) How are P₁ and P₂ related? (b)Which is more P₁ or P₂?

Answer:

(a) P₂ = P ₁ + h g ,

(b) P₂  P ₁

Question 8. How does the liquid pressure on a diver change if:

(i) the diver moves to the greater depth, and

(ii) The diver moves horizontally?

Answer:

(i) As the diver moves to a greater depth, pressure exerted by sea water on him also increases.

(ii) When the diver moves horizontally, his depth from the free surface remains constant and hence the pressure on him remains unchanged.

Question 9. State Pascal’s law of transmission of pressure.

Answer:

Pascal’s law states that the pressure exerted anywhere in a confined liquid is transmitted equally and undiminished in all directions throughout the liquid.

Question 10. Name two applications of Pascal’s law.

Answer:

Two applications of Pascal’s law:

(i) Hydraulic press

(ii) Hydraulic jack

Question 11. Complete the following sentences :

(a) Pressure at a depth h in a liquid of density p is………………….

(b) Pressure is……………….. in all directions about a point in a liquid.

(c) Pressure at all points at the same depth is………………..

(d) Pressure at a point inside the liquid is …………………. to its depth.

(e) Pressure of a liquid at a given depth is ……………… to the density of the liquid.

Answer:

(a) h g (b) same (c) the same (d) directly proportional (e) directly proportional.
