Why the pressure is a tensor quantity?

Radhika said:   9 years ago
When there is no direction , only magnitude , M.I. is considered as a scalar.

When there is one direction & magnitude , it is a vector.

And when there are different magnitudes in diff. directions, it is a tensor(having more than one direction)

Hope its clear now.

Tensor due to magnitude changes with different directions!

As per my knowledge, stress is a tensor quantity. But please explain clearly how pressure be a tensor? Also is it correct that tensor means more than one direction?
