Fluid Pressure
The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.
Gauge Pressure
Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem …

Answer to Problem 25R

The amount of matter in an object is called density of the object.

Explanation of Solution

The amount of matter in an object is called density of the object. More the density of an object more the heavier the object. It also define by the ratio of mass of the object to the volume occupied by the object.

Conclusion:

Hence, the amount of matter in an object is called density of the object.
