Answer:

Answer is A.

The same force acting on a smaller area exerts a larger pressure, and a smaller pressure on a larger area. This is the reason why a nail has a pointed tip, knives have sharp edges and buildings have wide foundations.

Hence, the statement is true.

Explanation:

The foundations of high rise building are kept wide so that they exert less pressure on the ground and prevent the building from sinking into the ground.
