Scientific Overview

Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area. It is a scalar quantity that describes how force is distributed over a surface.

Historical Background

The concept of pressure was developed by Evangelista Torricelli, who invented the barometer in 1643. Blaise Pascal further developed pressure principles and the SI unit is named after him.

Real-World Applications

Meteorology

Atmospheric pressure measurements are essential for weather forecasting.

Engineering

Pressure calculations are critical in hydraulic systems and structural design.

Medicine

Blood pressure monitoring is vital for cardiovascular health assessment.

Chemistry

Gas pressure affects reaction rates and equilibrium in chemical processes.
