Answer:
Pressure = Force/Area
In case 1 --›
Force = 10N
Area = 0.1m²
Pressure = 10/0.1
= 100N/m²
= 100 Pa
In case 2 --›
Force = 10N
Area = 0.05m²
Pressure = 10/0.05
= 200N/m²
= 200 Pa
That means pressure got doubled!

Yes. because pressure is inversely proportional to area. Since area is halved, pressure will be doubled.
