Negative pressure governs not only the Universe or the quantum vacuum. This phenomenon, although of a different nature, appears also in liquid crystals confined in nanopores. At the Institute of ...

Scientists have found the proof for a liquid-to-liquid transition in sulfur and of a new kind of critical point ending this transition. Scientists from the ESRF, together with teams from CEA and ...

(a) Typical acceleration fluctuations of the liquid caused by the impact and the pressure fluctuations in the liquid, which largely change by the floor materials. (b) Comparison between the ...

The pressure caused by a column of liquid can be calculated using the equation: pressure = height of column × density of the liquid × gravitational field strength The density of water is 1,000 kg/m 3.

The movement and space between particles in a fluid affects the amount of pressure the fluid exerts. This means that the pressure in a fluid changes depending on its height, depth and temperature. The ...
