Usman Public School System: Pressure Worksheet

1. The document contains a worksheet on system pressure with questions about diagrams showing forces acting on objects submerged in liquids or gases and the relationship between force, surface area, and pressure. 2. It asks the student to identify examples of forces acting over large areas producing small pressures, and situations where increasing factors like mass, depth, or density would increase the pressure on a submerged object. 3. Questions also involve using a manometer to measure pressure differences between gases and the atmosphere and calculating gas pressure values based on measurements of the manometer liquid levels. Cooling the gas is said to potentially affect the liquid levels in the manometer.
