Understanding Absolute Pressure Definitions by NAVINDRAN KALAISELVAN (Student) is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Pressure is defined as the physical force exerted per unit area on an object. There are different types of pressures including absolute, atmospheric, differential, and gauge pressure. Absolute pressure is measured relative to zero pressure in empty space, while gauge pressure is the difference between absolute and atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric pressure varies with elevation and is caused by the weight of the atmosphere above. Differential pressure is measured relative to surrounding atmospheric pressure
