How do we measure and calculate the density of a cuboid?1. Measure the objects mass on a balance. 2. Use a ruler to measure the objects length, breadth and height. 3. Use V=lxbxh to calculate the objects volume. 4. Use ρ = m/V to calculate the object’s density.
How do we measure and calculate the density of a cylinder?1. Measure the mass of the object on a balance. 2. Use a ruler to measure the cylinder’s diameter. Divide by two to get the radius. 3.

How do we measure the density of a liquid?mass of liquid = mass of filled container – mass of empty container then: ρ = m/V
How do we measure and calculate the density of an irregularly shaped object?volume of irregular object = volume of object and water – volume of water alone then: ρ = m/V
What is pressure?A measure of how much force is acting over a particular area.
What is the formula for pressure?p=F/A
In the formula p=F/A, what is p?Pressure
In the formula p=F/A, what is F?Force
In the formula p=F/A, what is A?Area
What is pressure measured in?N m⁻² or Pa
What is force measured in ?N

What formula can we use to calculate an objects weight?W=mg
In the formula W=mg, what is W?Weight
In the formula W=mg, what is m?Mass
In the formula W=mg, what is g?gravitational field strength
What is weight measured in? (in the formula W=mg)N

What is a fluid?liquid or gas
As the depth of a liquid decreases, does pressure increase or decrease?increase
What is the atmosphere?The layer of gas around the Earth
As the altitude of an object increases, does the atmosphere become more or less dense?Less dense
What causes atmospheric pressure?Air molecules colliding with a surface
As the height above ground level increases does atmospheric pressure increase or decrease?decrease
If an object is more dense than the medium surrounding it, will it float or sink in that medium?sink
What is upthrust/buoyant force?If an object is placed in water, when the depth of water increases, the pressure increases. Since the bottom of the object is deeper than the top, the pressure at the bottom will be bigger than the pressure at the top, resulting in a resultant force upwards.
What causes an object to sink? (explain your answer referring to upthrust, and the object’s weight)If the weight of the object is larger than the upthrust, the object will sink.
How is gas pressure created?due to the vast number of gas particles colliding with container walls and exerting a force over that area
What is the relationship between pressure and volume?Inverse relationship: as volume increases, pressure decreases
what is the relationship between pressure and 1/volume?directly proportional
what do you get when you multiply pressure and volume?a constant value

In the equation p₁V₁ = p₂V₂, what is V₁?Initial volume
In the equation p₁V₁ = p₂V₂, what is V₂?Final volume
In a container with a large volume, are there more or fewer collisions with the walls?Fewer, as the gas particles have further to travel to collide with the walls
In a container with a small volume, is there a larger or smaller pressure on the walls?Greater, because there are more collisions with the walls due to less distance to travel

at a high temperature, do gas particles exert a large or small pressure? explain your answerat high temperatures gas particles move more quickly and energetically and collide with the container walls more frequently. this exerts a large force on the container walls, resulting in large pressure
at a low temperature, do gas particles exert a large or small pressure? explain your answerat low temperatures gas particles move less quickly and energetically and collide with container walls less frequently. this exerts a smaller force on the container walls, resulting in a smaller pressure.
