C. 10 m2
Explanation:
We can calculate pressure using the formula, pressure = force / area.
In this case, we find that Pressure is inversely proportional to area. So the smaller the area of the object, the greater will be the pressure exerted by the object.
The least area from the given list is 10 m2. So this object will exert the maximum pressure.
The maximum area from the given list is 100 m2. So this object will exert the least pressure.
Option C is the answer.
