Question 4

At sea level, the atmospheric pressure is approximately:

Accepted Answer

$$100 \ \mathrm{kPa}$$

Question 5

Why does a balloon expand as it rises up a mountain, as observed in Pascal’s experiment?

Accepted Answer

The external atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude.

Question 6

Pascal’s Principle states that:

Accepted Answer

A change in pressure at any point in a confined fluid is transmitted undiminished throughout the fluid.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

$$10 \ \mathrm{m/s}$$

Question 15

Which of the following best explains how airplanes achieve lift according to Bernoulli’s Principle?

Accepted Answer

The pressure is lower on top of the wing due to faster airflow.
