find out the relation between pressure and area , what happens when area of contact for applying force is decreased
Answers
Explanation:
Ava and Eva are identical twins who are the same in every way, including their weight. One day, Ava and Eva decide to go for a walk in the snow. They get dressed, and then Ava puts on her favorite red heels. Meanwhile, Eva, who has always been the more practical sister, puts on her snowshoes.
As soon as they step out onto the snow, Ava's heels sink right through while Eva has no trouble walking on top of the snow in her snowshoes! Why did this happen? If Ava and Eva weigh the same and are exactly the same size, why did Ava fall through the snow while Eva did not?
This occurred because even though both girls exerted the same force on the ground, Eva's snowshoes spread that force over a larger area, causing the pressure on the ground to be much less.
Pressure is defined as the force exerted on a surface divided by the area over which that force acts.

The relation between Pressure and Area is:
Pressure = Force / Area.
If the area of contact decreases, the Pressure increases.
