Answer 1

it is the ratio of force to area and both force and area are vectors.

it is the ratio of the magnitude of the force to area parallel to surface.

it is the ratio of the component of the force normal to the area.

it does not depend on the size of the area chosen.

Answer :

C

Solution :

P=F⊥A

Answer 2

Answer:

We can put the walls of our container anywhere inside the gas, and the force per area (the pressure) is the same. We can shrink the size of our "container" down to an infinitely small point, and the pressure has a single value at that point. Therefore, pressure is a scalar quantity, not a vector quantity.
