Question

If area of contact is more, the pressure applied will be _____ *

Answer 1

Answer:

The pressure would change if the contact surface changes. Pound per square inch (psi) is used to measure the pressure. If the area contact is one square inch, 100 pounds pressure is 100 psi. But if you change the area to 2 square inches, the pressure would go down to 50 pounds psi .
