Choose (A)
B)
Choose (B)
C)

D)
Choose (D)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Options D is right answer

Explanation:

Pressure = force /area =2n/m2

Answer 2

Answer:

Pressure is defined to be the amount of force exerted on an object per unit area.  The SI unit of pressure is the pascal: 1Pa = 1N/m2.

We know that,

P = F/A, where 'P' is the pressure, 'F' is the force and 'A' is the area. Therefore, if the surface area of the object is 10m2 and the force applied is 5N, then the pressure would be:

Force/Area = 10m2/5N = 2N/m2 or 2Pa

Therefore, the pressure would be 2N/m2 or 2Pa.
