How to use "Pressure" in context?
Pressure is a physical force exerted by one object on another. It is measured in pounds per square inch (PSI), and it is one of the basic forces that physics explores. Pressure creates a force between the two objects, and it can be used to move fluids, organisms, and even rocks.
There are many different situations where pressure is important. One example is the pressure inside the Earth's atmosphere. The pressure keeps the Earth's atmosphere intact, and it also affects the way the Earth's ocean waves move.
Pressure can also be used to change the behavior of liquids and gases.
