The strength of the forces that cause deformation is expressed by stress. The extent of deformation under stress is expressed by strain, which is dimensionless. Tensile (or compressive) stress, which causes elongation (or shortening) of the object or medium and is due to external forces acting along only one direction perpendicular to the cross-section.

An important characteristic of fluids is that there is no significant resistance to the component of a force applied parallel to the surface of a fluid. The molecules of the fluid simply flow to accommodate the horizontal force. A force applied perpendicular to the surface compresses or expands the fluid.

Absolute pressure is the sum of gauge pressure and atmospheric pressure. Open-tube manometers have U-shaped tubes and one end is always open. They are used to measure pressure. A mercury barometer is a device that measures atmospheric pressure. The SI unit of pressure is the pascal (Pa), but several other units are commonly used.
