The Correct Option is (A): \(P_2 > P_1\)
LIST I | LIST II | ||
A | Surface tension | 1 | kgm−1s−1 |
B | Pressure | 2 | kgms−1 |
C | Viscosity | 3 | kgm−1s−2 |
D | Impulse | 4 | kgs−2 |
Pressure is defined as the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area over which that force is distributed.
When a force of ‘F’ Newton is applied perpendicularly to a surface area ‘A’, then the pressure exerted on the surface by the force is equal to the ratio of F to A. The formula for pressure (P) is:
P = F / A
The SI unit of pressure is the pascal (Pa)
A pascal can be defined as a force of one newton applied over a surface area of a one-meter square.
