Document Summary

Density is proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume. Pressure is proportional to force and inversely proportional to area. All three have the same base area, and all three are filled to the same depth with water. Glass b is wider at the top than at the bottom, so it holds more water than glass a. Glass c is narrower at the top than the bottom, so it holds less water than glass a. All three glasses have equal pressure at the bottom. What is the difference between the pressures inside and outside a bicycle tire called? gauge pressure. A jar is completely filled with water, and then it is sealed with a lid. The water pressure at the bottom of the jar will increase by 1000 pa. A piece of wood is floating in a tub of water. A second piece of wood rest on top of the first piece; it does not touch the water.
