5 Differences Between Force And Pressure
S.NO. | Force | Pressure |
1. | Force is a measure of the interaction between two objects that are capable of exerting a push or pull on one another. | Pressure is a measure of the force per unit area applied to an object.
|
2. | Force is a vector quantity, which means it has both magnitude and direction. | Pressure is a scalar quantity, which means it has only magnitude and no direction.
|
3. | Force is typically measured in units of mass times acceleration, such as newtons or pounds. | Pressure is typically measured in units of force per unit area, such as pascals or pounds per square inch. |
4. | Force is the product of the mass of an object and its acceleration. | Pressure is the ratio of the force applied to an object and the area over which the force is applied. |
5. | Forces can be attractive or repulsive. | Pressure is always an attractive force.
