Question

The smaller the area the higher the pressure and pressure increases with weight . I do not understand

Answer 1

Answer :Let's take an example :

If we apply 5 N of force in small area the pressure will be more compare to the same force applied on larger area. Simillarly if we apply more force in less area pressure will be more and if we apply less force in same area pressure will be less.

And also bcoz pressure depends upon 1-area and 2-force applied in given area
