Question

If a force is applied on a smaller area pf contact the pressure eexcret by it is
Greater
Lesser
the same
None of these

Answer 1

since we know that pressure =force/area . Therefore if a force is applied on a small area then the pressure exerted by it will be greater.

Answer 2

pressure and area are inverse proportional and when area decrease pressure increase and when force increase pressure also increase . hence pressure exerted is greater
