Force & Pressure

The document is a test on forces and pressure containing multiple choice questions, fill-in-the-blank questions, and true/false questions. It covers topics such as defining different types of forces like muscular force and atmospheric pressure. It asks about why certain tools have sharp edges and why deep sea divers wear special suits. Questions are also asked about pressure at different depths in a container of water, the forces involved in a rolling ball or falling apple, and examples of contact versus non-contact forces.
