Continue to fluid pressure for depth and density; hydraulics and buoyancy are enrichment.

Know what success looks like.

  1. 01

    Define pressure in precise physics language.

  2. 02

    Choose and apply the mapped relationship with symbols, units, and assumptions stated.

  3. 03

    Explain how the result fits the wider syllabus topic and test whether it is reasonable.

Build, apply, check.

1.8 Pressure sits inside Motion, forces and energy. Build the concept first, then practise selecting a model, showing working, and checking the final result.
