How are pressure, force, thrust related?



we know that Thrust = Pressure × Area and pressure is force/area. So we substitute pressure in the thrust formula and we get: Thrust= Force/Area*Area. Which simplifies to Thrust = Force. So is Force same as thrust?

classical mechanics - Moment of a force about a given axis (Torque) - Scalar or vectorial?

I am studying Statics and saw that: The moment of a force about a given axis (or Torque) is defined by the equation: $M_X = (\vec r \times \...
