Question

A force of 10 N acts on an area of 0.1 m². The force is kept the same but the area is reduced to half. Which of the following is true
a) the pressure does not change
b) the pressure reduces to half
c) the pressure increases by 1.5 Times
d) the pressure doubles ​

Answer 1

The answer is d) the pressure doubles

Answer 2

Answer:

the option is 'D'

Explanation:

PRESSURE=force/area=(F/A)

F∝1/area

area =F/A/2=2(F/A)

new pressure =2×intial pressure

so the option is D
