| pressurePressure (symbol: p is a measure of force per unit area. where p is the pressure F is the force A is the area Often F is taken to be the of the magnitude of the mean vector force normal to the surface of area A upon which it exerts; the "surface" not nece, stressIn physics, stress is the internal distribution of forces within a body that balance and react to the loads applied to it. Stress is a tensor quantity with nine terms, but which can be described fully by six terms due to symmetry. Simplifying assumptions
| pascalThe pascal (symbol Pa is the SI unit of pressure. It is equivalent to one newton per square metre. The unit is named after Blaise Pascal, the eminent French mathematician, physicist and philosopher. 1 Pa : 1 N/m² 1 (kg·m/s²)/m² 1 kg/m·s² : 0. 01 millibar | Pa |

| jouleThe joule (symbol J also called newton metre or coulomb volt is the SI unit of energy and work. The unit is pronounced to rhyme with "tool", and is named in honour of the physicist James Prescott Joule (1818-1889). 1 joule 1 N · 1 m 1 newton · 1 metre 1 k | J |

| powerMechanical power In physics, power (symbol: P is the amount of work W done per unit of time t''. This can be modeled as an energy flow, equivalent to the rate of change of the energy in a system, or the time rate of doing work, as defined by : where P is, radiant flux
