Question

how does the area on which the thrust applied affect the pressure​

Answer 1

Answer:

When you stand on loose sand, the force, that is, the weight of your body is acting on an area equal to area of your feet. When you lie down, the same force acts on an area equal to the contact area of your whole body, which is larger than the area of your feet. Thus, the effects of forces of the same magnitude on different areas are different. In the above cases, thrust is the same. But effects are different. Therefore the effect of thrust depends on the area on which it acts.

The effect of thrust on sand is larger while standing than while lying. The thrust on unit area is called pressure. Thus,

Pressure =thrust/area

Answer 2

Explanation:

The thrust applied on the area affect the pressure, as pressure it is directly proportional to the thrust and inversely proportional to the area, as the thrust increases the pressure increases and as the area reduces the pressure increases or vice versa
