Answer:
The correct option is: d. A is wrong and R is correct
Explanation:
Explanation of Assertion
Pressure: Pressure is the applied force per unit area. So the formula for pressure is: Pressure =
As area is same, so area = constant.
The expression can be, Pressure ∝ Force
That means if force is increased, then Pressure also increase. But the statement in assertion is "when force increases, pressure decreases" - this is wrong statement.
Explanation of Reason
Force: Formula of force is, Force = mass × acceleration.
Mass is scalar quantity but acceleration is a vector quantity, so Force will also be a vector quantity.
A vector quantity must have direction with the magnitude. So, "Force needs both direction and magnitude for its expression" - is a correct statement.
