How will the pressure vary if-
Force is the doubled while keeping the area constant?
Force and area both are tripled?
Area is doubled while keeping the force constant?
Answers
Answer:
The thrust acting on an object per unit area is called the pressure on the surface. Mathematically, it can be written as :
Where,
F is the thrust or the force acting
A is the area
So, it is clear that the pressure is inversely proportional to the area.
If the area is doubled keeping the thrust constant, the pressure would be half as :
P = F/A/2 =2P
Hence, this is the required solution
Answer:
Explanation:
Pressure is force acting upon unit area
Pressure = Force/Area
P = F/A
(i) If force is doubled...
F' = 2F
A' = A
P' = F'/A' = 2F/A
P' = 2(F/A) = 2P
Therefore, the pressure will be doubled.
(ii) If both force and area are tripled...
F' = 3F
A' = 3A
P' = F'/A' = 3F/3A
P' = 3/3(F/A) = P
Here, the new pressure will be same as the initial pressure.
(iii) If area is doubled...
F' = F
A' = 2A
P' = F'/A' = F/2A
P' = P/2
Therefore, the pressure will be halved.
