  • in the context of objects, the tip of a sharp object
    point
  • in the context of pressure between solids, this is the area of contact between the two solids.
    surface area
  • a type of height measurement, usually measured vertically upwards from sea level
    altitude
  • particles hit into each other or hit another object
    collide
  • an object that holds something else, for example, a balloon is a container for gas
    container
  • the international standard unit of pressure; meaning the number of newtons of force on every square metre of area written as N/m2
    newtons per metre squared
  • distance from the top to the bottom of something, or distance from the surface down to a particular position in a liquid or gas
    depth
  • the result of a force exerted on an area; the pushing effect of a force
    pressure
  • pointed end with small area at end of the points; having the ability to cut or push into something else.
    sharp
  • a position defined as having zero altitude; the position of the ocean surface measured mid-way between high tide and low tide
    sea level
  • a measure of how many particles are in a particular space or volume; more particles in a space is a higher concentration than fewer particles in the same space
    concentration
  • the force exerted by the atmosphere on an area of 1 meter squared, it is approximately 100 000 N/m squared at sea level
    atmospheric pressure
  • when particles hit into each other or hit into another object
    collide
  • a measure of how many particles are in a particular space or volume; more particles means higher concentration
    concentration
  • distance from the top to the bottom of something, or distance from the surface down to a particular position in a liquid or gas
    depth
  • type of height requirement usually measured vertically upwards from sea level
    altitude
  • position defined as having zero altitude; the position of the ocean surface measured mid-way between high tide and low tide
    sea level
  • object that holds something else.
    container
  • force exerted by atmosphere on an area of 1meter squared; approximately 100 000N/meter squared at sea level
    atmospheric pressure
