Question

differentiate between force and pressure

Answer 1

Here is your answer....

Difference between force and pressure:-

Definition of Force

By the term ‘force’ we mean the push or pull, caused by the interaction of two objects, which changes or tries to change the state of the object. It is a vector expression that has both magnitude and direction. Magnitude is the quantity of force, i.e. the larger the magnitude, the more is the force applied, and vice versa.

Definition of Pressure

Pressure is the amount of force, applied on a surface per unit area. It is the force acting perpendicular to the surface of the object, causing the force to spread over a certain area. Therefore, pressure considers the area over which the force is exerted, i.e. when force extended to a large area, the pressure is low, while if the same force is stretched to a small area, the resulting pressure would be high.



Hope it helps you.

Answer 2

Force is the total impact of one object on another. Pressure is the ratio of force to area over which it is applied. A force is defined as a push or a pull that makes an object change its state of motion or direction. ... In other words, pressure is force per unit area
