those who will Answer correct will be marked as brainlist

Answer 1

Answer:

pressure=force/area

pressure is inversely proportional to the area of cross-section.

so, maximum area corresponds to least pressure.

so, least pressure= (5x10) / (0.2 x 0.08)=3125 pa

and, greatest pressure= (5x10) / (0.08 x 0.05)= 12500 pa
