    Pressure In Gases Experiment Hypothesis: Using the recommended tire pressure will provide better gasoline mileage. When the tire pressure is lower than the recommended value‚ the surface contact area between the tire and the road is greater. This will cause greater friction and more energy is required to move the car. As a result‚ more gasoline will be consumed. When the air pressure of a car’s tire is higher than the recommended value‚ the contact area between the tire and the road is reduced.

    Air Pressure Air is composed of molecules. Air is matter. It has mass and takes up space. Air is composed of different gases such as nitrogen‚ oxygen‚ carbon dioxide‚ water vapor‚ and other gases. Air molecules are in constant motion. As they move‚ they come in contact with surfaces. Air molecules push and press on the surfaces they contact. The amount of force per unit area that air molecules exert on a surface is called air pressure. (What is Air Pressure 6) Air pressure is caused by all

    Atmospheric pressure is the force per unit area exerted on a surface by the weight of air above that surface in the atmosphere of Earth (or that of another planet). In most circumstances atmospheric pressure is closely approximated by the hydrostatic pressure caused by the mass of air above the measurement point. Low-pressure areas have less atmospheric mass above their location‚ whereas high-pressure areas have more atmospheric mass above their location. Likewise‚ as elevation increases‚ there is

    The crew live and work inside the pressure hull. It must be strong enough to withstand the pressure of the water at the depth the submarine is designed to operate. When the air tanks are full of air the submarine will float - usually submarines are designed to float on the surface quite low in the water (only a little freeboard). When the submarine dives (submerges) water is let into the tanks; to surface again air is blown into them. This air must be stored inside the submarine in compressed air

    A pressure gauge is an instrument that measures the pressure in a vessel‚ a line‚ or whatever the pressure gauge is connected to. A Bourdon gauge consists of a C-shaped pipe with one end closed and the other end attached to a chamber whose pressure is being measured. When there is a pressure difference between the inside of the pipe and the outside‚ there will be a net force acting on the C-shaped pipe which will either try to curl the pipe into a tighter C shape (if the pressure in the pipe is
