Gas Pressure

2.3

Gas Pressure

Explaining pressure using the kinetic theory of gases.

Gas molecules move freely and randomly
Gas molecules hit wall of container and change direction (elastic collision) resulting in a change in momentum
Change of momentum per time produce force
Force per unit area produce pressure

Factors incluencing the gas pressure

Instruments to measure gas pressure

	Another formula for pressure
	\(P=\dfrac{F}{A}\), where P = pressure, F = force , A = area. \(P\propto\dfrac{1}{A}\rightarrow P\text{ is inversely proportional to }A\) \(A\uparrow\;\;P\downarrow\)
